About Myrna

Reviewed on 4/29/2024

My many interactions over several years of Myrna helping my Dad and Stepmom proved that she is superb. Beyond complete competence in PCA roles, she is affable, smart, and genuinely caring, which sets her apart from most. But what lifts her to the top 1% is what I would call “graceful competence” (precise but less common words are “aplomb” and Italian “Sprezzatura”). By this I mean she’s fully present and attentive, yet does not disrupt family relations by any form of egotism. If you think of it, PCAs, especially live-in ones, are presented with the extraordinarily difficult and pressured micro-politics of the family drama. This situation requires high emotional intelligence (EQ). One who is too diminutive may not interfere but also may not take crucial initiative. Myrna achieves that rare balance where strength of mind, morals, and body does not disempower those she helps. You will be lucky if you manage to secure her help. I would say she deserves to be placed with families that will pay more to get Myrna’s high excellence.
