About Lori

I thrive on opportunity to learn what is important to each person while caring for them. I am dependable, empathetic, patient and good humored. I desire to increase their quality of life until there is good health or the passing of life. I became a caregiver years ago because I desired to care for those who needed care. I find care giving to be the most honorable work I have ever done.
