About Dana

Experience: 3 yrs

Making a difference in someone's life is what drives me. With a college degree, 29 yrs as a Flight Attendant and three years of experience as a Certified Home Health Aide with senior care, I'm passionate about supporting adults, children and seniors with compassion and empathy. I'm skilled at adapting to changing routines and de-escalating stressful situations. I handle confusion, agitation, or behavioral changes with patience and a calm demeanor. I offer transportation, run errands, do light housekeeping, and prepare meals. I always follow the family's preferred communication method. Understanding your loved one's preferences and personal history is important to me. I have CPR and First Aid Training. I look forward to bringing my detail-oriented approach to your family. I am experienced in bathing assist, toileting and all assisted daily living skills for senior care too.

Dana stands out as a compassionate, reliable, and deeply committed professional whose level of care rises far above anyone else who has been entrusted with supporting our loved one. Throughout her time providing care, Dana consistently demonstrated an extraordinary level of integrity, patience, and empathy. Her reliability is unmatched—she shows up early, communicates clearly, and handles every situation with maturity and calm confidence. Families can depend on her without hesitation, knowing their loved one is safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. Dana has extensive experience supporting seniors with a wide range of needs, including companionship, dementia care, mobility assistance, personal care, meal preparation, and maintaining a clean, comfortable home. She brings not only skill, but also heart. Her presence brings comfort, stability, and reassurance, which made a meaningful difference in both the quality of life and emotional wellbeing of our mother. What truly sets Dana apart is the level of care that simply cannot be taught. Her attention to detail, her ability to anticipate needs, and her unwavering commitment to dignity and respect far exceeded that of anyone else who had previously cared for our mom. She is a rare caregiver who treats each person as if they were her own family.
