    Shannon took excellent care of me. I live with a spinal cord injury, and I'm paralyzed from the neck down. Shannon is a quick learner and continuously tries to improve. There are several facets to my care, including bowel/bladder care, showering, transfers in and out of my wheelchair, and repositioning in bed among others. I give her my full recommendation!
