About Lois

I have been a nurse for 23 yrs. besides being a wife and mother of three. I am a natural caregiver and feel this is my call in life. I took care of my mother in her last years and worked with geriatrics in an assisted living and acute hospital setting. I have recently moved to WA state and look forward to working here.

I’m a very compassionate person who enjoys helping others. I'm a very punctual and very dependable. I became a caregiver because I'm good at it and I truly enjoy it. I feel I can make a big difference in someone's life. I make sure I come across more like a friend then a caregiver. I know it can be very hard for someone to give up there independence. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I love gardening, fishing and taking walks. My biggest accomplishment was raising my three beautiful daughters. I'm truly blessed! I have extensive medical knowledge through acting as the caregiver to numerous friends, family members and others.

I became a Caregiver because when I was about Fourteen my Grand Father became very ill and my Mother would go to his house everyday after picking me up from school, and we would take care of him. We would help him out with his everyday living needs, such as bathing, dressing, eating, And just light cleaning in his home. From then on I've always had the passion to help/take care of others. What I like about being a caregiver is making others feel more independent, by helping them with their everyday needs, or anything else they need help with. And also being there so they can talk when they need someone. A personal achievement to me is just a simple one, I once worked in a nursing home for about two years, and it was always an achievement to me when me or another one of my co-worker put a smile on one of the Residents face. I am a friendly person, I love to help others, And I am always ready And willing to learn something new in life.
