I am a retired massage therapist and I am college educated. I have been involved with care giving for over 15 years. I trained as a CNA in NY and have worked in the hospital environment as well. I have worked in psychiatric hospitals where I attended to geriatric clients. I have lead activities in assisted living facilities and even started my own care giving business in NY where I had several other care givers working with me. I have been certified to administer medications and I am very comfortable with all aspects of care giving. I have extensive experience with dementia clients. I truly love the work that I do with my clients and feel it is a privilege to provide compassionate and high quality care to people who are needing more support in the later chapters of their lives.

Harriette is a remarkable person and caregiver. She is fun, yes fun, to be around and has an interesting background that made conversation easy. I learned new things from her so not only did she take care of my physical needs, but also my mental needs for stimulation. I will rehire Harriette in a minute! You would be fortunate to have her work with you. Virginia
