About brandi

I have had clients with various care criteria for 3 years-and it's my passion. Although I am young, I empathize with the challenges of those in their later years, particularly when dementia is a factor. Days can be very long, depressing, and lonely for the elderly and I'm so grateful to be able to help those in need, engage them, and bring some joy! I worked at nursing homes for over a year, and at times was solely in charge of up to 15 residents at once. This taught me to be organized, responsible, and resourceful. I show up. It also gave me valuable experience with advanced Dementia/ Alzheimer's patients. I understand that you have to learn which approach works best for each individual. This is one of the reasons I have moved into private care-so I can give each client attention and care tailored specifically to their personality. I have excellent references upon request.
