We hired Leesa for my husband who was home in hospice care with dementia and lung disease, and it was the best/luckiest decision I could have made. Her knowledge and experience allowed her to be our guide as we made our way through this journey, and although my husband has now passed she is still part of our lives helping us! I 100% recommend her for any type of care work needed.
