Patricia S. Care Companion in Hurricane, UT 84737

Hello! My name is Patricia, and I offer premium, holistic private-duty care and functional wellness support for seniors in the Hurricane and St. George areas.I spent 24 years working as a professional Occupational Therapist (OT), giving me an elite understanding of the human body, physical safety, and cognitive health. While I stepped away from traditional clinical OT work a few years ago, my passion for helping individuals maintain their independence, dignity, and quality of life at home remains unchanged. Because of my clinical background, I specialize in complex, high-acuity care that standard caregiving agencies often cannot provide. I am also a Certified Nutritional Consultant and a Certified Yoga Instructor, allowing me to blend physical safety with holistic wellness, tailored meal prep, and gentle therapeutic movement.
