We hired Petrona as a caretaker for my husband's mom. We wanted someone we were able to trust in our home and someone with a lot of patience as she was diagnosed with dementia. Petrona showed up and exceeded our expectations. She was not just there but she was present, she was attentive, loving, caring, understanding, agile and very soon my mother-in-law seemed to love her more than she loved me. Her level of patience is nothing like I've seen. She paid attention to all details and was able to report to us on effects of medicine including rashes, change in moods, difference in attitudes, mobility, etc. she was very sociable, easy going and a great communicator. She was simply amazing and pleasant to be around. I have no regrets hiring her and wouldn't hesitate doing so again. Thanks for all you did Petrona. Stay in contact!!
