Teresa Stuttle, Recruitment & Engagement Coordinator
Teresa is a Navy wife and mother of two very active boys. She spent 13 years in healthcare as a CNA then Medical Assistant before going back to school for her BA and then MBA in Human Resources. Teresa has always held a special place in her heart for those in need and, by extension, for those individuals who provide care and fulfill that need. When not at work she loves to spend time with her family, enjoying outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and canoeing to name just a few. On that rare occasion that life slows down you can find her reading or gardening. Teresa is thrilled to be part of the Home Instead Team!

Lisa Bellows, After Hours On-Call
Lisa has been our main weekend on-call backup for several years now. The office may close at five, but we know our job doesn't stop there. Having a true 24/7 accessibility is one of the things that sets us apart.
"Got an issue at 10 pm? Don't hesitate to call. I started as a caregiver here at Home Instead and I know that our client's needs don't occur neatly between 9 and 5. So, please call. You'll always find a real voice here on the other end"
We know it's a comfort to our clients, and also to their families that we are the eyes and ears, always on watch, when they can't be. Lisa is the reason we can confidently say, "Call us anytime!"
