About Lashawn

I have been working in the personal care industry for the past seven years. I started sitting for an elderly gentleman. I cared for him for two years. His daughter then moved him to Georgia to be closer to her as his health was fading. I then found employment with a facility for physically as well as mentally handicapped adults. I just enjoy caring for those who need assistance. I never thought of working in this field but since embarking on this new path I must admit it's been one rewarding experience after the other.

I am skilled at helping the aged navigate this stage of life while providing a wide range of assistance with everyday life challenges. I have assisted with implementing in home physical and occupational therapy plans, medication management/reminders, toileting assistance and catheter care. I am able to assist with showering or providing a full bed bath including hair care. I have experience using various medical equipment including a Hoyer lift. I believe in fully attentive concierge care. It is my desire to learn a client's preferences regarding every facet of daily living and honor them at every opportunity. I am extremely organized and use this skill to create a fully customized "Life Binder" which is personalized for each client. This book includes "daily care reports" which track such things as vitals, oxygen levels, pain score, medication administration, fluid intake, food consumption, urine output/bowel movement tracking and various other observations of daily living. I am willing to accompany clients to physician appointments and take copious notes. I am willing to run errands, prepare meals and assist with eating. Laundry and light housekeeping are done on a daily basis. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I possess documentation of a level 2 FBI Background Screening along with many 5 star references which are available upon your request. I can be reached at (904) 444-7606.
