About Lorraine

I was a CNA for 12 yrs. I have worked in mostly nursing homes and Memory Care Centers, but I did go into home health care. I like to do home health care because you get to know that one individual. When your working for that one individual, you're able to focus and be more attentive to that patient's needs and wants. I believe what makes me a great caregiver is my experiences, my compassion and my willingness to continue to learn. I like to find out more about my patients, what they like, listen to them not just see them, but hear them out. I'm a hard worker. I'm trustworthy and I always do what I say I'm going to do. Reliable and a hard worker. The best thing about being a caregiver is knowing I help someone have a better day by just being there for them.

I've been a CNA for five years. I've cared for elderly clients as well as sick and immobile ones. I have been in the medical field as a Medical Assistant and Phlebotomist for twenty-five years. I went for my CNA license to better understand how to care for elderly and home-bound people as well as to correctly care for my brother who passed from cancer. I am grateful to be able to care for my patients as I care for my family. I've been a Medical asst. and Phlebotomist for over 25 years. *National CPR Foundation

Hello 44 years old I have been in the health care field for over 15 years now I love helping the elder and those with disabilities or those that just need companionship. I choose this field because it gives me great comfort knowing I can make someone's day a bit more comfortable and a little easier or even just making one smile. I believe we all will need someone to care for us at some point in life so I treat those the way I'd want to be cared for later in life. I also work with special needs patients and IDD i was a home Coordinator at a group home 3 years i enjoy this as well. Please feel free to ask any questions.
