About Shannon

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have 15+ years experience working with the aging population. I am passionate about serving seniors in their home (wherever that may be) as long as safely possible. I am available to assist with care coordination (initiating, scheduling, participating in Dr. visits/taking notes, following up on referrals), medications, transportation, errands, light housekeeping, organizing, cooking, shopping, medical appointments, nursing home/assisted living facility visits, healthcare advocacy, personal assistant and pet care. I believe in a holistic approach and provide individualized care based on needs, interests, and abilities including incorporating music, prayer, meditation, and pet therapy. I am honest, flexible, conscientious, and reliable. I have a clean background check and have references available.
