I believe I'm a good listener and I care about the wellbeing of others. I have known since the 7th grade that I want to help others empower themselves.

Hello! My name is Lori. I am a mother of 4 (almost grown) children, and a daughter of one elderly parent. I have been a Physical Therapist Asst. for 29 years. My mother suddenly passed in 2017. My father has severe dementia, and in her absence, there existed a need for someone to care for him. I fulfilled this role for some time, until the inevitable, appropriate time came for me to return to my family and life back here in Missouri. I personally experienced the process of seeking a suitable caregiver for my father, to help maintain the lifestyle that he had always known. I didn't think that it should be difficult to find this person (people). But, it was, especially in a small rural KS town, considering the financial resources available. I discovered a passion for in-home caregiving. I have been blessed to be able to continue caregiving since that time, and have worked with several wonderful families. I am reliable, competent and compassionate. It is my desire to continue caring for those in need.

My personality traits that help me be a great caregiver is knowledge and understanding of all types of people and conditions. I can become attached to clients as I get to know them as they can become basically like family. I enjoy my work and job as a caregiver, its the most rewarding job I have had before I became a mother. I do enjoy connecting with my clients early and knowing routines for their lives so I can be the best at their needs and wants.

I have always been interested in jobs that deal with the care of a persons lifestyle and I never hesitate when it comes to lending a hand to someone who needs it. I am very flexible with schedules and dealing with different clients, and I can easily adapt to new environments and the surroundings. I have experience in both home care and in a skilled nursing facility. My favorite part of my job on top of helping others is getting to know the resident I am caring for. As a caregiver you can spend more time with your client getting to know them better, which makes caring for them more of like a hobby than a job.

I was drawn to this field when I was younger, I would take care my father after his stroke and also my adopted grandparents on there death beds when I was in school still. I feel suited to this field because I am very caring, passionate, loving, understanding, kind, fast learner, and patient. I enjoy being a caregiver the most because when the client has made a acheviement and thwy are so pleased and happy, that's what motivates me more is seeing there happiness and them achieving, but also the stories they will tell of things that they have done is so pleasing to hear. When a client has made a achieved then I have met one my goals for that client. But if I can get a client to smile and have a great day then I have made my goal for that day.

I have worked in Home Healthcare since I was in high school getting paid to take care of my grandpa! That really sparked an interest in me to take care of others when he passed away. I have over 10 years experience. I am a mother to 2 beautiful children. My son is nonverbal autistic so I also have extensive experience with that.

One of my greatest passions are caring for others. I have been in health care for three years now and I have loved everyone of my jobs. When in my free time I help with a daycare, ride horses, and look for ways to better myself. I am going back to nursing school in August 2018, to further my education. What I have loved most about all my jobs is seeing the smile and my residents/patients face when I know I am helping them they way they deserve to be help. I love seeing my patient progress in their daily living activities, I love seeing them achieve the goals that we both know they can do.

I am a very outgoing person, a mom of three. Ready to get back to work now that my kids are older. I want to continue helping people like I always have since I was little. I have taken so many classes to further my education in child care up to elderly care. my calling in life is to help others and that's what I'm ready to get back into. Helping others makes me feel accomplished. I hope you love and enjoy me as much as I will you
