About Kathryn

I have been caring for seniors for over 18 years. I am patient, mature and caring. I treat my clients like family. I enjoy hearing their stories and keeping them engaged. I also feel that hygiene is a big part of keeping seniors well and happy. Showering, getting hair done and dressing neatly makes a big difference in how a person feels about themselves. Letting them know that they are important and treating them with respect is an important part of my job. I do all the other things as well, such as taking to the Dr., running errands, going out to lunch and keeping their home neat. Once I know my clients ability I chat with them about what they would like to do and we take it from there..
