About Lauren

1) I became a caregiver because I desired to help people as best as I could with the education that I had at the time. When I began I was only a CNA but now that I have furthered my education I can do more, but I still love to be able to meet people where they are and help them with day to day needs. 2) I like being a caregiver because you're not only able to help the client but the entire family all at once. The more you get to know your client and the family the better care you can take of the client and find the best way to do it. 3) I am very proud of passing Fire training and state exams, this was something that a lot of people had told me I wasn't going to be able to do because of my size and gender. Passing state exams made me realize that you can do whatever you tell yourself you can, it doesn't matter what anyone else says, no matter their position. 4) I am a down to earth person who looks out for the best interest in the client, and helping families come to agreements on whats best for the client.

    I always loved to help others and with the lost of my father I realized how hard the last few years with him was and how little help I had with the other pressures in life it took a toll so I quit my job to stay home with my dad and I seen the difference that hands on and love made with him and I knew then this was what I was meant to do in life share my love and compassion with others
