About Bonnie

I approach every client as an individual. I find the people I meet have lived amazing lives and like to hear about their experiences. This sometimes also clues me into THEIR wants and needs and how they want to be cared for in a sometimes newer but lesser life that they have to contend with. It's not easy accepting or admitting they need help to do things they've always done for themselves.

Caring for clients within their homes. This included ADL's, cooking, cleaning, companionship, shopping, errands and I did hospice care as well for this company. I met an interesting group of people in the client base and enjoyed the job. I did have to leave as I couldn't get a 40 hour work week that my life needed at that time.
