About Lorissa

I've been a caregiver for 9+ years. I love assisting, walking, talking, enjoying the company of others and just being there in silence if that's what is needed. I live my life with integrity while giving others all the respect they deserve. I respect the difficulties aging brings and those who struggles with disabilities. I believe, with communication, I can be of service to all those families needing care.
