About Louise

Caretaking always came natural to me. I pride myself on compassion and understanding. 10 years ago I began my career in mental health, then gradually ended up in home health- which I love! I love helping and watching my patients meet their personal goals, becoming part of their families, and building beautiful working relationships. Over the years, I'd like to say I've mastered the art of patience, as home health can be very trying at times. I always do, and will continue to, work hard to help in maintaining their independence.

Hello, I'm a former respiratory therapist looking to help you or your loved one at home. For 10 years I worked in two hospitals helping people with various conditions and disorders. During this time, I also worked in home health taking care of the elderly. I continued working in home health after my hospital closed because I have always felt it was what i was meant to do. Please contact me if you're looking for someone dependable, kind, and compassionate. I do have my background check. Rate of pay per hour negotiable.
