About Myrtle

I am a caring, respectful individual who presents herself professionally. I have a passion for helping and assisting. I am a well educated retiree who has a masters degree in psychology and I am understanding of clients that are challenged with dementia. I enjoy visiting with my clients, hearing their stories and actively listening to whatever topic they chose. I also enjoy taking walks; playing board and card games, escorting clients to their appointments and taking them shopping. I have a good driving record and a reliable car. I am also available for 24 hour duty once or twice a week if the family needs to get away or my client has surgery. Light housekeeping and simple snack/meal preparation or feeding can be done as needed. Able to accept appointments immediately.
