Shirley’s Bio

I am an experienced, loving and independent caregiver with outstanding references and great experience. I provide personalized service and strive to maintain or improve our seniors' quality of life. I care for primarily congestive heart failure (CHF), Alzheimer's, stroke, cancer, Parkinson's, diabetes and MS patients. I perform all tasks associated with senior care that includes feeding, bathing, incontinence care, re-positioning, bedsore management, dressing, medicating shopping, escorts to and from appointments, end-stage care, and help with oxygen, catheters, and colostomy bag.
I love working with the elderly. They are our link to the past and are so often "thrown away." I want to offer value to their final time. I am also comfortable with those who are ill from any other condition and am a quick learner. My goal is to provide what you need to give you piece of mind that your loved one is being cared for by a competent, reliable, consistent, and loving caregiver
