Dorothy is a wonderful person and companion to my 93 year old mother who has slight dementia. The days are not always easy but Dorothy is patient, attentive to my moms needs, trustworthy, very caring and is a happy person with a positive attitude. I have no worries knowing that my mom is in good hands with Dorothy! I would recommend her whole heartedly Paula D.
