Mercedes’s Bio
My true passion has led me back to where my heart belongs: providing exceptional care for older adults.
With experience as a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA), I bring a unique and specialized skillset to companion services. My initial year of experience was centered entirely within memory care, where I discovered the profound joy of connecting with, and advocating for, this community. My recent work in pediatrics only solidified this realization—my calling is clearly in geriatrics.
My mission is to be more than a supportive companion; I strive to be a source of joy, intellectual engagement, and sustained quality of life. I use my COTA training to establish vital routines and lead purposeful activities that simultaneously strengthen the mind, body, and spirit. Choosing me means choosing a professional who is genuinely driven by passion and committed to your loved one’s happiness and dignity.
