I have more than a decade of experience caring for my parents, who had Alzheimer's, congestive heart failure, mobility challenges, incontinence and other degenerative health issues. After their passing and the sudden death of my husband, I retired and became a professional home health provider, which I have been doing since Aug 2024. It was one of the best decisions I ever made. The joy I experienced in caring for my parents has been restored in caring for others. I am quick to bond with my clients and am always seeking to increase quality of life. I have had specialty training as a home health aide through an agency and am seeking additional employment and flexibility on a contract basis. ADL's include mobility assistance, personal hygiene, dressing, bathing, medication set up and administration. IADL's include light housekeeping, cooking, errands, appointments, advocacy and companionship. I look forward to talking with you further about how best to support you or your loved one.
Lynelle has been an incredible caregiver for my mother-in-law who suffers from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Caring for someone with dementia takes so much patience, compassion, and understanding, and Lynelle brings all of that with genuine kindness and respect. She makes my mother-in-law feel safe, supported, and cared for, which has given our family immense peace of mind over the past few difficult months. She goes above and beyond with her clients. She helped us navigate a diagnosis, medical appointments, moving to assisted living, medicare and more. She even brings printed sheet music to sing with my mother-in-law, a retired music teacher. So amazing! We are so grateful for Lynelle and would highly recommend her to any family in need of exceptional dementia care!
