About Patty

Experience: 2 yrs

Honest, reliable, compassionate, the glass is half-full, fun. Non-smoker. I do it for the joy of it. Currently a PT receptionist at premier assisted living & memory care facility. Retired Producer & 3 decade company owner. 12 yr volunteer at the Bedford COA & Minuteman Senior Services. State certified in Memory Care: NIDE (National Institute for Dementia Education). Seniors advocate for HC, SS, and utilities. I'm a second wife of 30 years with 2 step-daughters + 4 grands. I was caretaker for both sets of parents, an uncle & an adult special-needs autistic god daughter. My clients get the care, sunshine and engagement I want for my loved ones. Just back from the Galapagos, I have 2 rat terriers, love reading, adventure traveling, gardening, boating, crafts, old movies & wildlife. And people. I enjoy people. Check my childcare profile for more info on me Love animals of ALL kinds but no cats in the home due to severe allergy. Full disclosure: I'm a terrible cook.

Patty is an outstanding caregiver who goes above and beyond. She has a great deal of experience and knowledge on a wide variety of subjects which help her recognize the needs of the person and family she is providing care for. Patty is observant, adapts well to the many situations and the needs of the person she is caring for. She communicates very well and advocates for her patients needs. Patty is always enthusiastic and not only provides care but also genuinely cares for the person and family. Patty arrives on time and ready to help upon arrival. She has great Bedside manor and is engaged in patient care. Patty also is receptive to feedback and works well the families needs. I highly recommend Patty as a caregiver.
