Most recent review
My dad had been living on his own in Reedville for a number of years and was starting to get a lot of health problems - from worsening diabetes to uncontrolled bipolar disorder. He was slowly losing touch with reality and unable to care for his own well being. Finding Ed was a lifesaver. What started out as occasional welfare checks and medication management turned into meal preparation, grocery and doctor visits, and just general social interaction for my dad as his health declined and he was no longer able to drive himself around. We've since moved my dad out to a senior care facility, since his medical needs became too great. Even afterwards, Ed has been around to look after my dad's home as we got it ready for sale. He was able to engage with and organize contractors to take care of repairs, as well as taking care of things like cleaning the yard and mowing the lawn on his own. Don't hesitate to reach out to Ed with whatever your needs may be. He made my dad's transition to long term care manageable, and really helped out with remotely managing my dad's property since i'm a few states away.
