Most recent review
Ms. Dorothy was a Caregiver for my Auntie and she had the aura of purpose, that showed through daily as she went about her responsibilities. She was professional, punctual, attentive and trustworthy. Her tender heartedness and kindness won my Auntie over and build a beautiful relationship between them. Ms. Dorothy managed my Aunt’s daily personal needs including daily medication and preparation of nutritious meals tailored to her dietary needs, with so much compassion and expertise. She also coordinated appointments with such zeal. Ms. Dorothy’s performance, character and ability to handle challenges made the entire family very endeared to her. Her love and commitment made a significant difference in my Aunt’s life and we were always extremely comfortable and confident to entrust my Aunt’s care to Ms. Dorothy. I would give her the highest rating any day!
