About Dorothy

Making a difference in people's lives is what drives me. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and am looking for opportunities to connect with older adults outside of my regular job. I have 4 years of paid experience caring for older adults, but decades of unpaid experience. I'm passionate about fostering well-being and independence. My graduate degree has further equipped me with skills to provide comprehensive support. I offer respite care, run errands, assist with shopping, provide light housekeeping, and prepare meals. I adapt to changing routines, handle confusion with patience, and incorporate memory care activities. Compassionate and approachable, I prioritize earning your loved one's trust while respecting their independence. I always follow the family's preferred communication method. I have a car and I'm comfortable with pets. I look forward to bringing my calm demeanor and genuine care to your family.
