About Patricia

I would like to provide companionship for someone that needs assistance. I am available for transportation to an appointment, cleaning, organizing, laundry, shopping and short day trips to enjoy the flowers. My experience has been caring for my father for several years, he had Parkinson's Disease with progressive dementia. He was a Veteran and received fabulous care through VA facilities. My sister and I provided his transportation to appointments to VA clinics and the hospital on the hill. Currently, I am a caregiver/companion for a sweet lady with dementia. She lives at home with her husband, I stay with her so he can take some time away to go fishing or take care of personal business. I live in Scappoose with my husband of 47 years, we have two children and four grandchildren that are fabulous!

I am currently taking care of a sweet lady with dementia. She still lives at home with her husband, I stay when he has errands to run or when he has trouble getting her to get in the shower. I am able to convince her without too much stress and he is very grateful. Prior to this I was a caregiver for my father with Parkinson's Disease.
