About Janis

My grandparents were a wonderful part of my life. I was fortunate to have them until I was in my forties. I helped care for them during many health problems including strokes and injuries. I learned how to lift them and shift into wheelchairs. I helped them dress and changed bed sheets while they were still lying in the bed. I was present while many caregivers such as physical therapists and home healthcare nurses came, and learned behaviors from them that I would and would not emulate. I enjoyed helping my grandparents feel well cared for and respected, as they should be. I believe all seniors deserve to be treated with compassionate care.
