About Lisa

I became a caregiver because I wanted to take care of people and help them. I currently work in a residential facility where I take care of individuals with developmental disorders. I enjoy my work and I enjoy helping the people I take care of. I enjoy the people I work with. There's a lot of team work that is required at this place and I am very thankful for the people I have to help me. I do enjoy talking to my consumers and hanging out with them. Most of them can't talk to me, but that doesn't stop me from talking to them! My biggest achievement at this point is that I just returned to nursing school. I spent many years avoiding it and finally I came to the realization that this is my dream and I needed to pursue it. Within a few months I was accepted and enrolled into a great nursing program; currently it is on line so I am able to work around my busy schedule with it. In addition to attending nursing school I baby sit occasionally, I have these amazing twin girls that I have known since they were babies and I watched for a couple of summers and now I still hang out with them and watch them every now and them. I do not have any children of my own, though I hope too one day. My boyfriend and I are talking more and more about our future, but nothing is set in stone yet. In the meantime, I have a niece and twin nephews that I can love on and play with.

    I have worked as a caregiver for over twenty five years. Starting out with an agency that I worked with for seven years. I then went on to work at a school for children with developmental disabilities. I was also there for seven years. I went on to work as an independent caregiver for a man for eleven years until his death. I am currently working with a ninety year old female who is suffering with Dementia. I have been with her two years next month. She is being placed in a memory care facility soon. Every one that I have worked for has been happy with my service and will provide recommendations upon request. I think some people are just natural caregivers. It is what I enjoy most. I am compassionate, patient, and willing to do what ever is necessary to provide safety, and comfort. I treat clients the same way I hope to be treated someday as a senior.
