About Lindsey

Hello my name Lindsey, I'm a experienced medical assistant. I enjoy taking care of people that need day to day health and/or home assistance. I am the oldest of six children, so at an young age I was responsible for helping my mother care for my younger siblings. Later, after I graduated from Laurus Technical Institute's Medical Assistant Program, I continued to pursue career opportunities to care for the home and health needs of people. I am a joyous caring person by nature, so making someone else's life easier, either for you or a love one, is a job I will never get tired of doing. ;-)

As a caregiver I am compassionate and caring. I decided to become a caregiver after helping care for my grandfather during his end of life. Through my 15+years of being a caregiver I understand what is means for the clients to have the care they deserve, while maintaining their dignity. I pride myself on being a team player and can adapt easily to changes. Attention to detail is important to me as well. What has made me the proudest, is the relationships I have established with my clients and their families.
