I am retired Registered Nurse with 25 years experience providing home care services. I enjoy my work, which includes companionship, shopping, and meal prep, home management, providing transportation to medical appointments, and medication management. I work with family members whether they live close by, or across the country, to assure them their loved one is well cared for while living at home. I enjoy having fun with seniors, going to movies, music venues, plays, and even going for rides. I am very comfortable in the pool, and love to assist one with water exercises or just relaxing. I am very personable, warm, conversational, and am truly interested in a senior person's life story. As time goes on, one may need a healthcare advocate, and someone to communicate with health care providers. I am experienced on focusing on the needs of the individual. I truly enjoy my work.

Georgette is a consummate professional in all ways. She is also thoughtful, honest, caring and compassionate. At all times she attended to my mother's every needs -- and they were many - from companionship to intensive care at the end of my mother's life. Georgette was a gift to all of us, especially to me. I did not worry for even one second about my mother's situation or care - all due to Georgette's knowledge, wisdom and caring. Her performance went beyond any expected standards and was exceptional. A family who hires Georgette is in good hands and very lucky.
