I came to caregiving via many years of Hospice work as a massage therapist. I have the capacity to be emotionally present, kind, and be a good listener. At the same time, I recognize the practical needs that come with needing assistance. So, I also have training as a Nurse Assistant Certified, specializing in home care. I no longer do heavy lifting but, I can work with those who are ambulatory or require stand-by assist. I hold the client's best interest first and foremost. I hope you will consider me.
