Dina’s Bio

I started taking care of my grandfather when he was in his early nineties he had prostate cancer and was on home hospice care. After he passed I started caring for my elderly neighbors. A wonderful couple that only wanted to be home together. They refereed to their friends, and that is how I started in home care. I feel deeply that people deserve to have their wishes respected, mostly their wish to stay in their home and be comfortable. Some people do not always have family to be there to care for them . I provide that care while showing respect for family boundries. Having taken care of my own family members I understand how hard it is when you have to just be there for them and can not do anything to stop the inevitable. Knowing you did everything to make thier time better can make all the difference. I worked with the hospice nurses during my time with my grandfather and some of my other people, and am equipped to handle emergancies, bathing and medications. I'm available and willing to help.
