Catherine’s Bio

I have 10 yrs of experience, and found this to be the most rewarding profession. Trust, loyalty, compassion, communication, and understanding are all needed to be the best caregiver. I have all of these qualifications, and I know what is required to make this very difficult challenge for the patient as well as their family a much easier transition. You must learn the likes and dislikes of the patient, and realize how very difficult it for them to rely on someone else. Their independence is so very important, and must be treated with respect and understanding. I have excellent references, and I know you will not be disappointed with the level of care I provide.
