About Marlisa

Originally I became a Certified Nursing Aide in order to qualify as a Primary Home Care Supervisor. As I began to bring clients onto service and place the aides into the homes to assist the clients with activities of daily living my heart was changed by the needs of these lovely people, my clients. Caregiving is in my opinion is the most personal way to truly give back to the most frail of our society. It is incredibly rewarding in seeing the outcome of what some assistance will do! I have been a staff Ombudsman for the state of Texas in Long Term Health Care facilities further helping be a voice for those who may not otherwise be able to speak for themselves. Being able to assure that each resident has the most basic of services and is treated with respect is among achievements of which I am most proud. I bring 10 years of experience and ongoing education with private care clients. Acute Care, ALS, Dementia, Alzhiemers, Diabeties, Physical Therapy, and keeping clients engaged through activities of daily living. I routinely transport clients to Dr's visits, shopping, and their activities. I am a Texan, born and raised, who loves the outdoors. I am an avid gardener and an enthusiastic long distant cyclist. I am fortunate to have great health and enjoy being able to help give some of my strength to those who need it. Lisa

I have had a lot of life experience that makes me uniquely qualified. My family refers to me as the safety officer as I am hyper vigilant to my environment. I naturally express care for everyone around me. I have cared for my mother in my home in the last years of her life. I did all her hospice care before her death in 1999. I love helping and caring for adults in need. I have helped many friends after surgeries during recovery. I am interested in temporary positions like recovery time care or any temporary houshold duties or shuttling. To give caregivers a break might be the perfect temporary position.

I have great compassion for the elderly. And I love spending time with them. So much so, that I was a Hospice volunteer for 15 yrs before becoming a paid caregiver. I am trustworthy and dependable and a great driver, if needed. I am also a non-smoker.
