About Ruth

As a family business, I was raised in a "Rest Home" in Boston, where 7 elderly people resided with us in the house. We children got involved preparing + serving meals, as well as socializing with the residents! That experience segwayed into a life long career of providing pt/ft home health care and respite care. I enjoy the work, and value the relationships that develop between my clients & me.
