About Andrea
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have experience working as an in-home personal assistant-caretaker and household manager for a number of clients in casual and formal homes, signing NDA'S. With one of the clients, I worked supporting and providing respite for the principal caretaker, her husband. Also managing and administrating medications. Providing emotional support and stimulating environment. I am by nature compassionate, nurturing, friendly, conversational, extremely discrete and confidential. My presence and creative ideas greatly enhanced and eased the situation. I love taking care of elders!

Andrea is of impeccable integrity. References she gave said they would trust her in a minute with the keys to their houses. Andrea became a live in caregiver for my wife, aged 88 who had advanced dementia and was debilitated as well from a severe head injury suffered in 2005. She was in this role for fourteen months until my wife passed away peacefully in our home. I was overwhelmed having been sole 24/7 caregiver since the 2005 injury. Andrea shopped for and cooked all our meals. She provided sorely needed respite, which I could not afford prior to the live in arrangement with Andrea. My wife entered in-home hospice March 8, 2016 and passed away May 23rd. Her wish was to die in her own home and not be moved to a care facility. Andrea helped make this happen, and was of unsurpassed help to me during this time. She worked with the in home help hospice provided, and was there when I needed help, as my wife lost all mobility and the ability to speak during the last few weeks.
