Vicky has been an absolute blessing to our family. As a trained nurse, her medical expertise and quick thinking were invaluable, especially when our mom suffered a bad fall at home. Thanks to her skilled wound care, she was able to treat the injury on the spot, avoiding the need for a trip to a wound care specialist. Her pharmaceutical knowledge also gave us complete confidence in her ability to manage medications safely and effectively. What truly sets Vicky apart is her unwavering patience and kindness. Mom has a reputation for being difficult and, at times, unkind to those around her. Despite this, Vicky handled every situation with grace, professionalism, and a calm demeanor. Her ability to navigate these challenges without ever losing her composure was nothing short of remarkable. We found Vicky through a close friend who had recently hired her to care for their mother. After experiencing her care firsthand, we completely understand why they spoke so highly of her. She is not only highly skilled but also deeply compassionate, making her an exceptional caregiver. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of professional, intelligent, and kind care for their loved one. She has made a profound difference in our lives, and we are incredibly grateful for her dedication.
