About Denise

I started being a professional caretaker about 2 years ago. I wanted to be a caretaker after taking care of my grandmother and great-grandmother for 5 years. I truly love this job and have treated all of my clients like family. I don't know another way. I want to give my clients the best life that they can have at this time in their life. I have experience both professionally and personally with Alzheimer's, Dimentia, Parkinson's, CHF, Oxygen therapy, and end of life care.
