About Heather

Experience: 4 yrs

I am a mother of 2 teenage boys. Growing up I was extremely close with my grandparents who lived around the corner from my childhood home. When my grandma had Alzheimer's & grandpa got ill I was always there to help them drive them to dr appts, help them with whatever they needed. My other grandma is 102 & my best friend. My dad has Parkinson's so I'm very familiar with the disease. I am a licensed certified home health aide who has a car, drives & I speak fluent English. Currently I work with different patients with their own specific needs; Dementia, Parkinson's, unable to walk without a walker or wheel chair bound. I drive them to dr. appts, help with grocery shopping & errands. I also make lunch as well as some household chores, such as laundry & cleaning up. I help w bathing & dressing as needed. Some of my patients are in pull ups/ diapers. I am also a companion to them. I am there for whatever their needs are. I love what I do & find it very rewarding. Open to late shifts.

Heather was very caring and kind toward my mother-in-law. Mom truly enjoyed her company. Heather also took good care of her cats, although she admitted she herself is not a "cat person". She also did several overnights and I felt better when I was away knowing that our beloved mother was in good hands.
