About Evelyn

Experience: 1 yr

Hello, I'm Evelyn. I have meaningful hands-on experience as a caregiver and companion, having supported a 78-year-old woman living with Parkinson's disease through the different stages of her journey. From daily companionship and mobility assistance to personal care and end-of-life support during hospice. Over the course of our time together, I provided gentle assistance with bathing, dressing, medication reminders, assistance during mealtimes and emotional support. As her condition progressed, I adapted to her evolving needs with patience, empathy, and respect, always prioritizing her dignity and comfort. I was honored to be by her side through her final days, ensuring she was never alone and always cared for with compassion.

Evelyn provided excellent and loving compassionate care to my wife of 55 years during her last few months before she succumbed to Parkinson’s disease in July 2025. Evie was exceptionally sensitive to the changes in my wife’s needs as the disease progressed. Her tenderness and empathy towards my wife forged a deep relationship where my wife was completely trusting and comfortable with Evie and the care she received and thought of Evie more as a family member than just a hired caregiver. We relied on Evie to train the team of round-the-clock caregivers on the both the mechanics of care as well as the most appropriate ways to communicate with my wife as she declined. When my wife transitioned to hospice care, Evie was highly complimented by the outstanding hospice care team for her skillful and exceptional care of my wife throughout that difficult period. Evelyn keep detailed records of the daily conditions, care and medications which were invaluable in coordinating my wife’s care needs across our in- home caregivers and the hospice nurses and CNAs. Evelyn is completely trustworthy, dedicated, reliable, committed, compassionate and competent. I absolutely recommend her without any reservations to care for your loved one’s needs.
