My grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. I cared for her at home for 16 months, until her death. It was an eye opening experience for me. I felt as though I had been blessed to have the opportunity to spend this end of life experience with her. I cared for her completely. Then my grandfather needed care. I moved him in with me and cared for him as well. After they passed, I started getting calls from friends, to care for their parents. And I did. Entering the field through these steps, I learned the value of trust and companionship. I know a good relationship with a health care provider is most beneficial for the Senior and I have seen the joy that comes with these actions. I am proud to say, I can provide excellent references for jobs well done. I am professional in appearance and very dependable and I always have a smile.
