About Dione

I believe I am a great caregiver and I stand out from the rest due to having cared for my ill father for the past 16 years. I have experience working with dementia, alzheimers, bipolar, schizophrenic, para/quadriplegic, strokes/TIA, CHF, blind, deaf, COPD, along with a number of other conditions that individuals suffer from. This is where I gained the passion for caring for disabled & geriatric patients. My main goal is keeping my clients smiling and the most comfortable as possible. I enjoy caregiving for the simple fact of caring for others; I have a huge heart as well as the compassion and patience to go along with it. I enjoy the companionship, wisdom and conversations with each and everyone of my clients.I love being a caregiver!

15 years ago I was in desperate need of a caregiver for my mother. It was very difficult to find an honest, caring, trustworthy person to care for her. I went through several different caregivers, including a family friend that didn't work out for the job. I ended up quitting my job and caring for her till she died 9 years later. At this point in my life I want to be able to help someone that needs special care because I know the negative impact it can take on the entire family when the care of a loved one is not being met. I think the sick and elderly are at our mercy to care for them.
