I DO NOT HAVE A FEVER. -9/04/2021
I cared for my mother with Alzheimer's Disease for 15 years and it changed my life.

Alzheimer's Disease is a very specific diagnosis within Dementia. I am a Certified Senior Advisor, Certified Alzheimer's Advocate and Certified Dementia Advovate. Where ever you are in your senior life, be it healthy or diagnosed with a disease, I can help you. I focus on Activies and engagement (If apppropriate) I believe more than ever that isolation and loneliness is the biggest risk to our Senior population. I have a list or numerous experiences to take clients out on an outing. Getting outside and breathing the fresh air as well as just getting out of your house for a drive, that is all, and much more than I can provide.
I also provide all of the in-home daily needs for your loved one. I also work with many companion care clients. I have been told that my help to clients is excellent. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Deborah is very professional and willing to work with me to figure out the best care for my mom. She is very kind to my mom and shows the utmost respect for her. She manages the "business" of our relationship very well which also helps me to make life easier for everyone involved.

Deborah is energetic, engaged and so kind to my mom. She is knowledgeable about dementia care and my mom loves talking with her. She is a passionate advocate and a good communicator.

If you want the best care possible, you want Debbie. I first met Debbie while she was caring for an elderly family friend who needed help with, well, everything---she kept him on top of medications, bills, property management, business deadlines, appointments, errands, you name it. She enabled him to remain highly functioning while his health steadily deteriorated, and she did so gracefully and quietly to ensure his dignity remained intact. Indeed, she empowered him. I was so impressed that she has been a go-to resource for me since my son was born. Whether 8 months old or 80 years, her clients benefit from her compassion, professionalism and utmost competency. I cannot recommend her enough.

She goes "above and beyond" anything I ask of her. She is also fun to be around.

Deborah was exactly what I expect in a caregiver for my mother. She is loving, compassionate and very knowledgeable.  She continued to work beyond the expected hours by sending me all sorts of helpful articles and links to helpful websites.  She is an absolute priceless asset to the elderly and their family members.

Debbie  is a very capable and talented caregiver. Her enthusiasm for caregiving leads her to be a voice in the industry. Debbie is deeply caring for her clients and goes above and beyond to get them the help they deserve. 

Debbie has worked with my dad for 3 1/2 months and has demonstrated an above average level of care. She makes sure that communication is happening between all concerned. Outside of her work day, she continues to help make suggestions that would aide him and increase his quality of life.

Deborah has had experience as an office manager, and as a child caring for both parents in their declining years.   She was always very involved in these tasks.   Her life experience includes successfully raising two sons.   Her greatest joy comes from helping others through troubled times.

Deborah has been very helpful, organized, punctual, caring, compassionate, resourceful and thorough. She has displayed a strong sense of integrity and tenacity in all areas of her work for me. I've felt comfortable entrusting her with important, confidential and personal business tasks. She has offered wonderful problem solving and I feel quite fortunate to have her assistance.

Keeping Deborah in mind for possible work caring for dad.   But I decided I'm not ready yet.

I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Deborah for an extended period, and have watched her adeptly tackling each role and duty entrusted to her with caring competence.  Deborah's skill sets run from high-end business acumen, to running all aspects of a home, to senior care and child care.  At ease and competent in any setting, Deborah is an honest and trustworthy person who can provide peace of mind knowing that your loved one will be well cared for.  Deborah is excellent with children, which says so much about her character and patience with clients of all ages in my book.

Deborah is one in a million. I have known Deb for quite a few years now. After falling from a building during a work accident, she helped me and my Father find housing. We we're both unable to work and without her, we would have had no where to go. Deborah is kind, very dependable and an all around good human being. I feel blessed to have her in my life, and to see her unwavering commitment to those in need. If you are looking for care for a loved one, some help around the house, or just some companionship. Debbie is an easy recommendation for me!!

I have been working with Debbie for almost a year now.  My mom has dementia and Debbie is very caring,  patient, compassionate and devoted helper.  I have even received compliments from the staff at the retirement community she was located at.  She has been a huge help to my family over the last year.

Debbie has been an additional care giver to my mother who has dementia/Alzheimer's.  She has been a great help to fill in the gaps when we cannot be with her. Her communication has been wonderful and she has really helped with my mother's loneliness.  We really appreciate her support, care and concern while going through these challenging times.  I highly recommend her, anyone would be lucky to have her.

Although I did not have the opportunity to meet Deborah, other family members did interview her, and then hired her. They thought she was wonderful, and very helpful. I would recommend her as being very considerate, flexible, and filled with much knowledge when it comes to helping the elderly.

I hired Deborah and we had talked over the phone about 2 to 3 weeks before she was supposed to come to my house to take care of my mother because my sister and I were leaving on a vacation on July 11th. My sister and I have not been able to get away from taking care of our mother for 8 years so this vacation was extremely needed. Deborah and I talked, I gave her my address and telephone number and told her the date and time to be here. I asked if she needed to talk to me again before the date please call me but I told her I didn't have a problem with seeing her on the 11th at 11 a.m. So July 11th came, then 11 a.m. came and no Deborah. At 11:10 a.m. I phoned her, no answer, at 11:15 a.m. I phoned again, no answer. 11:30 a.m. I called, she answered and I said Deborah this is Debra and you're supposed to be here at 11 a.m. and she replied oh is that today? I said yes are you still going to come? Her reply, No, I don't think so! I was so upset I hung up. My sister and I were going to pick up 2 other women at noon, but I had to call them and tell them that we didn't know when we were going to be there because we had to try and find someone else to take care of our mother. We spent 2 hours calling around trying to get someone to come and stay with mom finally my husband called and he had to leave work and come home to be with mom so my sister and I could leave. Deborah screwed up 5 people's day that day. My husband was so mad that he called and left Deborah and message on her phone and my husband is very mellow and never does anything like that so I know he must have been extremely upset. I must have gotten at least 15 replies to my request and I had to pick Deborah. I don't think I have been that upset with anyone in a long time.
