About Deborah

Experience: 3 yrs

In home healthcare, caregiver for one family in their home, patient had dementia and had several strokes which left her partially paralyzed. Personal end of life care, she was 89 years old and a joy to be with. I cared for this family for 3+years and remain connected with other family members. My most recent was caring for a gentleman in his 80's with Lewy Body Dementia. I provided daily companionship, prepared meals grocery shopped, managed medications, assisted with transfers, did his laundry, coordinated and managed medical appointments and worked with and coordinated outside help such as housekeeping, pool services and handyman support to ensure the house ran smoothly. My main focus was always on him and his wellbeing. I worked with this family for 1 1/2 years until his dementia took a turn for the worse and his daughter made the difficult decision to move him to her hometown in CA.
