About Annette
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have been in the geriatric care giving field for over 25 years and have had great success with whomever I have had the pleasure in caring for. I have always had a gift of caring about people and believe in treating people the way that I would like to be treated. I have had the honor of caring for elderly patients with a variety of conditions such as Dementia, Alzheimer's, Hospice, Respite Care, stroke, Companionship, Depression, Renal Failure, Arthritic, Parkinson's, diabetes, and several more. I can honestly say when I wake up knowing that I am going to care for a person who looks forward to me being there as much I enjoy being there makes a big difference. Every person is unique in their own way and that is what makes my job so interesting. I can bring a person's hopes and spirits up without even thinking about it as so many elderly tend to be depressed. I am a good listener, very compassionate and caring.

My 97 year old Mom and I would recommend Annette as a caregiver for anyone seeking care for their aging parent. Annette entered our lives just when needed and is kind, caring, giving, and generous. She listens to my Mom patiently and for whatever time my Mom needs, no matter any repeating of her stories! Annette treats my Mom as I would hope when I’m unable to be home with her. This has helped me get a mental and physical break, and gives Mom another loving person in her life. Annette is attentive to Mom’s every need and keeps an eye on her for safety issues such as balance and potential fall risks. I am able to leave for a period of time with no concern, knowing Annette will take care of everything. She has gone the extra mile on every visit bringing Mom her homemade dinners to share and contributes small touches around the home to enhance our lives. Once the power went out when I was gone and she handled it calmly and fully without any needs from me. I appreciate Annette’s relationship with Mom and I and am grateful for all she does for us. Highly recommend her!
