Lora B.

I've been working as a Caregiver & Case Manager for over 20 years I have experience with all levels of care. I've Assisted families aged 68 to 100 w/ many different ailments & offer all services from meal prep, massages, exercise to promote mental alertness, play brain games, love music & just fascinated by people's stories I'm loyal, compassionate, very observant and am able to think fast. I'm a doer Always going above & beyond while respecting my clients, their family & their homes. Scheduling and provide transportation for Dr's appointments with detailed notes to update family.

Sanford and Carolyn are in relatively good health. They had originally hired me because Sanford had a few falls and was very weak. I started physical therapy with him immediately & made doctors appointments with his general practitioner, neurologist, & optometrist. After going through his medical records I found a note a dr. made in 2012 about a condition that basically is fluid around the brain. Most common side effects cause the patient to be unsteady, blurred vision, incontinence among others. Unfortunately Sanford was experiencing all the above. I made sure we saw the head of the neurology department through his insurance company, gave all the information to the family and worked closely with them to help make the decision on what is best for his health and care. I help him in his office, I do everything I can to keep him busy, active, engage with his friends, I've taught him to meditate and I give him great massages. I try to help Carolyn as much as I can by giving her massages preparing dinner and if I see something that needs to be done I do it. I try to maintain a happy, positive environment by playing music & games. Sanford will be getting a shint in his brain and after a week or so he will not be needing a full time caregiver. I love what I do and am happy to be moving on with the Katz family healthy.
