Hi, My name is Kathy and I have been working in The Medical Field for over 30 years. I worked at The Veterans Administration Hospital as a Patient Advocate for 8 years. For the past 22 years I have been caring mostly for people with Alzheimer's and Dementia. I find both fields very rewarding as I am a very compassionate and caring person. I have had special training in Alzheimer's and Dementia and I'm always researching to learn more so I can share that knowledge with families. Caring for people is not just a job to me, it is my passion in life. Please feel free to ask me any questions or for references. Thank you, Kathy B.

    Kathy was a spectacular addition to our family, helping with my wife's care in her late-stages of Dementia. Kathy was professional, attentive and a joy to have in our home.
