About Laura

Being a caregiver is very special! I enjoy forming close relationships that are warm and supportive. I like assisting seniors so they feel more independent. I love to laugh, listen and share life stories. I enjoy games and crafts as well as dance, music and wellness. I currently work as an activities specialist for an independant living facility in the area. I love planning activities and having fun with my group! I am happy to assist people with their activities of daily living and being a good friend to others. I am happy to give the extra effort to make life beautiful.

I became a care giver because that is my passion assisting people in need whether young or old. What I like being a caregiver is that making sure my clients are safe and comfortable at all times in their own homes or were ever they maybe The personal achievement I have accomplished is that I become part of my clients family this is because I once have a client who is in hospice when I took over in caring for her she was removed from hospice. I really have special skills in caring for my clients whatever mood, pain or depressed they are I always do my utmost best to make sure they are ok. And for this reason my clients and their family always like me and don't want to lose me.
