    Deborah has been caring for my uncle for almost five years, and her dedication and compassion have been truly remarkable. She is deeply considerate and understanding of his dementia and Alzheimer's, always showing patience and kindness. Deborah goes above and beyond to be welcoming during family visits, engages in art and music activities with him, and takes him to his favorite places to eat. She is generally very protective of him, treating him like her own family. Deborah navigated the challenges of COVID flawlessly, ensuring my uncle's safety and well-being throughout the pandemic. She is indispensable and a true treasure. We are incredibly grateful for her support and highly recommend her as a caregiver. I wholeheartedly recommend Deborah to anyone in need of a caregiver, regardless of age or mental capacity. Her ability to connect with and care for individuals is exceptional, and her kindness and dedication make her an outstanding choice for high-quality, compassionate care.
