I cared for my husband in his final illness and gained appreciation not only for older folks facing health challenges, but also those who care for them. I offer companionship, and the ability of loved ones to have time away from their responsibilities. Over the past year, I cared for a gentleman who was facing several health challenges before passing too soon. I took him to and/ or from medical appointments, helped prepare meals, and went for walks. Most importantly, I listened to him. I currently act as companion to a an older woman, taking her out to shop and to church, important things to her, offering independence. I would hope to offer similar assistance to families needing those services, to supplement the care of medical providers and therapists. I live in Fairfax, have my own car, am a non-smoker and am fully vaccinated. I have security clearance. I was Red Cross CPR and first aid certified and will renew those certifications.

Eileen was a wonderful help during my husband’s 11-month illness. I was able to continue working while Eileen helped with day-to-day activities, generally in 4-5 hour shifts. She often drove my husband to his doctors’ appointments (where I would meet him for the appointment). She helped to prep meals, and run errands with him. She always had his best interests at heart. We have stayed in contact following his death. And I hired her a second time to help with my elderly father.
