About Lysa

I have 30 years of caregiving experience and a heart for others. Especially those that reach a place in life, where care becomes needed. Part of my overall caregiving experience includes: Handicapped care, dementia, Alzheimer's & memory challenged clients. Hospice care, medication assistance & reminders and helping with all sorts of mobility needs. I am also individually focused on monitoring clients needs, and/or changes, along with companionship. I can provide personal transportation and assistance to activities and appointments, including doctor appointments, as well as pre & post-op surgery care. I offer experienced caregiving in all aspects of life and I truly enjoy working alongside families and my clients for all the different reasons care becomes needed. I love to laugh and also help my clients laugh, smile and enjoy their lives, no matter what phase of life they may be in. Making others comfortable and at ease with every person and their families are of utmost importance to me, as each are very unique and special. I am organized, detail oriented, a multi-tasker, prompt, trustworthy, creative, dependable and also a non smoker. My goals will always be, seeing those I care for and their families quality of life improved, stress relieved and working with individuals and their family's to make that happen. Thank you for considering me, Blessings, Lysa

My primary concern as a caregiver is to make sure that my client is able to function at the best of their ability and to make sure that they are having the highest quality of life that they are able to have. I am not only there for my client but I am also there for the family (such as: to let them go grocery shopping, are just to be another set of ears at doctor appointments or for the family. After a few days with the client and the family I begin to consider them family. I have a great amount of nurturing and empathy, some say I care to much but I give 150% to my clients and families. I enjoy order and dispensing medication, relating to my clients, enjoy the pass and working on family history. I have no parents or grandparents so my clients kind of fill these roles. I have been a first responder, EMT, CPR Instructor, nurse's aide, and medication aide. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is having a D.N.S. that I work with for a long time trust me to teach new nurse's the medication routine and to be a charge nurse. As a personal care giver the highest praise I can be given is for my client to tell me I must be an angel and that they love me.

I am a very attentive, respectful, kind person that knows what its like to need special help for a loved one. If it is brought to my attention that someone's needs aren't being taken care of properly I will make sure to take care of those needs to the best of my ability. I first got started caring for others when my grandparents got sick and needed help tending to their every day activities. I recently went through Marquis and recieved my CNA licence and BLS CPR certification. My greatest achievements are my 3 kiddos.
