Shirley’s Bio

I took care of my grandparents during their last three years of life here in the city and I have experience working with social workers and coordinating care. Both of my grandparents suffered from dementia
My grandfather loved Opera so I would have Opera playing in the home and he could have long talks about Opera even if he didn't remember that we had already checked the mail. I have experience with autistic children and I believe you need the same patience and flexibility with senior citizens.
