If you are looking for a reliable, compassionate caregiver who has your loved one’s best interests at heart, then you need Barbara. For the past 9 months, she cared for my mother, Louise, who had been diagnose with Alzheimer dementia. Barbara also looked after my 64 brother who has special needs and can be quite difficult at times. Barbara still enthusiastically handled all situations, even when she was at home with her own family. Barbara’s stamina and skill at addressing personal needs as well as assisting in activities of daily living is impressive, and matched only by her patience and empathy. Barbara was always prompt and always had my mother clean, dressed, and fed. She handle tasks of bathing, cooking, laundry, and cleaning and still became a very close friend of not only my mother, but our family as well. Due to Mom’s cognitive decline, we have decided it was time to place Mom into a Memory Care facility.
