About Wanda

Before getting into caregiving I was a medical assistant. I worked in a family care facility along with a cardiologist. They were a husband, wife team. I really have a great compassion for the elderly and after working with a broad spectrum of health care I felt we need to standup and help the elderly, after all who was there for us. I enjoy talking and caring for the elderly. I spealize with Alzheimer's and dementia.
