Katie worked with us for a year providing personal care assistance to our son who has Cerebral Palsy, and who uses a power wheelchair and augmentative communication device. Katie handled the physical requirements of the role extremely well, which included feeding, toileting, dressing, etc. Just as importantly Katie was wonderful from a social and emotional standpoint as well, providing an outstanding level of care and support throughout her time with us. We would strongly recommend Katie to any family seeking a professional, well qualified and caring individual.
