My name is Laurie. I have been a LPN for 26 years. My experience ranges from working with children in a pediatric office, hospital, nursing homes, disabled adults-group home, and at present I am working as a visiting nurse. I love being a nurse and caring for people who are not capable of caring for themselves. I get great satisfaction if I know that I have helped someone and, I have made a difference in their lives. If I get a smile or a thank you, then that just makes me happy and pleased to know I have done a good job.

    Laurie was very helpful even though the position did not work out for her. She knows what she is talking about and goes the extra mile to help caregivers work out problems. Love her already and don't know her!
