I took care of my grandmother who had dementia. She did have aides but I did the basics... light housekeeping, grocery shopping, taking her out for a ride, medication management, bringing her to her appointments. I then was a companion to an elderly lady in Amherst who had dementia. We would talk, sing, play games, watch TV, walk around her cul-de-sac, and mostly laugh! I had been with her for almost 4 yrs. I've been with several people over the yrs and really enjoy being with them. I also work part-time at The Dollar Tree in Northampton. I've been there since they first opened 3 yrs ago. I am NOT certified or licensed or CPR/first aid trained. I am a COMPANION (which includes many things) and I do this because I enjoy it. I am a mom of 2 sons... one who will be 22yrs old and one who will be 25. ** I am Covid vaccinated and boosted **
