About Gretchen

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a very caring and compassionate individual that enjoys the company of our seniors. Caring for both of my parents during their decline, I realize how crucial excellent home care services must be. It provides comfort to not only the senior, but reassurance to family members that their loved ones are safe, enriched and provided with the respect that they deserve. I am a very patient person as I watch the frustration of aging, confusion due to illness or lack of mobility. I have experience with persons dealing with Dementia / Alzhemier's, Parkinsons, MS as weell as medication management, mobility issues, tube feeding, assisting with physical therapy excercises, bathing and dressing, and meal prep. I have a very calming nature. I am prompt and reliable. I really enjoy what I do and people indicate that it shows. Hope to hear from you.

Gretchen has been with me since January of 2018. She is honest and trustworthy. She is intelligent and has the initiative to take care of something that I can't do myself without having to be told. I have no nursing needs and I'm flexible on things like arrival times and personal days-off so I can not speak to that, but when Gretchen takes me to a doctor's appointment she is always punctual and dependable. She helps me with activities of daily living and with my home exercises.
