This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I have had extensive experience working with persons with Dementia and acting as a resource and guide to families who are helping their family members with the Dementia journey. I currently present to community groups and college classes on the topic of Dementia. I feel that I have a special affinity with persons with Dementia; we find a way to communicate and understand each other. It is one of the greatest joys of my life.

Carol is very caring and professional with dad and the family. Carol has been like an angel for the family. The experience Carol brings with her in the caregiver role is EXTRAORDINARY. She is always ahead of the situations that arise and calmly manages through to a positive solution. We would say she's gifted, by always bringing balance to challenging family situations. Carol also helps coach and teach the family about what to expect next for the failing loved one on the journey to the "End-Of-Life". We HIGHLY recommend Carol and are truly grateful for ALL she's done for Dad and our family.
