I also have extensive experience with Parkinson's and dementia patients . I currently drive a Cadillac xt5 2020 so you will be very comfortable if transportation is needed for appointments I am 6. 1 Ft 340 pounds so I can easily lift and help out most seniors . I was a live in for 3 and a half years with my last patient . A little bit more about my previous job is during COVID I was a full time live in during quarantine that required me to stay 24/7 with my patient and his family for 8 months . I am a Navy veteran, I am committed and very dependable and enjoy keeping a fun and happy atmosphere. I have letters of recommendation and contacts that are available from previous clients .

Joseph is an incredible human being. He cared for my father for several years and became a family member to us as well. I believe that with close family and Joseph by his side, my dad had the best possible quality of life before passing.
