Kathryn’s Bio

I have gained invaluable experience and developed a deep sense of compassion through my role as a companion caregiver for my father, who is 75 years old and living with dementia. In his current state of hospice care, I help provide round-the-clock supervision, ensuring his safety and well-being at all times. From assisting with daily activities such as feeding and bathing to engaging him in meaningful and stimulating interactions, I am dedicated to providing him with the utmost care and comfort. This experience has reinforced my ability to remain patient, empathetic, and attentive in challenging situations, while also fostering a profound understanding of the importance of companionship and emotional support in caregiving.
