I have worked with highly functional disabled adults, patients with mental health issues such as bipolar and Schizophrenia as well as elderl. Most of my patients have Alzheimer's or Dementia, along with medical needs such as colostomy bags, urine bags, after surgery care, stroke etc. I have also worked with 3 quadriplegic who needed assistance 24/7 including bowel program, transferring, meds etc.... my current quadriplegic I have been working with for 2. 5 years and have a stroke patient who is now completely paralyzed on her left side. I am a Navy wife transferring to Virginia from CA. I have a masters in public health and have really loved doing private care. I have great references and treat my patients like family. My other passion is animals, I have 5 large breed dogs, 1 cat, and 2 horses. Very comfortable doing pet care and I am a nonsmoker!

Amber was my father's caregiver for the last few years of his life. She is professional, knowledgeable, thorough, kind and caring. Our family loves her and would highly recommend her. She is a terrific person.
