This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 5 yrs
I was inspired to work with the elderly community because I feel it is such an important time in a person's life to be honored, respected and well cared for. My first opportunity to work in the geriatric field was during the time I was living in Portland, Oregon. I worked in a memory care unit as a caregiver, and then as an activities assistant in the same building. I continued my work after my move to Pittsburgh working as an activities assistant in a nursing home. After this, I decided to transition into in home care and worked to help a wonderful family for the past two years. Most of my experience is with helping individuals with dementia. I have learned so much over these years from not only those I was working together with, but also from the individuals who I was caring for. There are no words for the gratitude I feel to have had this incredible privilege, and I really enjoy it from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for considering me to help you and/or your loved one!

Practically Perfect... You will not find a more caring, intuitive, and responsible person to be with your loved one. She has an innate sense of what each person needs, esp the elderly. She lovingly and enthusiastically cared for my Mom in her last 2 years, and we could not have asked for better. Lisa is a one-of-a-kind gem who simply enjoys taking care of others and who will give you peace of mind when she is there. You are a very lucky family if your schedule will work with hers. I would want her to take care of me when I need it. She is truly the Mary Poppins of Elder Care.
