Caregivers
Your Caregiver
When you decide to invite someone into your home, you want to be sure they are trustworthy and experienced. With a 150-year tradition of compassionate Christian care, Lutheran Senior Services carefully selects its caregivers. Each applicant undergoes drug screening and a police background check, and is also cleared through the Family Care Safety Registry. To make sure your caregiver knows the best way to help, we provide continuing education and training. A registered nurse will also check in with your caregiver on a regular basis.
Your Schedule
Your schedule and personal needs are important to us. Daily, weekly, or monthly care can be arranged, from short visits to 24-hour care.
Service Areas
We serve St. Louis city and county as well as St. Charles and Jefferson counties.

LSS Private Duty Director Barb Moran began working as a hospital social worker when there were few home care options available. Her first experience with private duty was as a staffing coordinator for a Pittsburgh, Pennyslvania, agency where she successfully managed a contract that provided over 500,000 hours of service to the indigent population in Allegheny County. Prior to joining the LSS team in 2006, Barb managed an agency located in Orange County, California, for 14 years that specialized in providing long term live-in care. Barb and her husband Tom moved to St. Louis in 2004 to be near her daughter and granddaughter Sophie.
