About Sara

My sister found Sara when she entered hospice protocols. She was kind, caring and dedicated to supporting her, and the family, through this journey. Her experience helped us all understand the process that was ahead of us. Initially, she helped a few hours a day, a few days a week with general housekeeping chores. As my sisters condition progressed, she asked Sara to put together a support team for her. Sara took this responsibility very seriously, acting as any good hiring manager would: gathering and sorting through applications, making initial calls, checking references, meeting personally with potential caregivers and only bringing in ones that she thought would be qualified and a fit for us to meet and interview. As more care was needed, Sara worked with her own support team of caregivers, to prioritize the care needs for my sister. She added more hours and finally arranged to be the overnight person until she passed. In addition, during this time, my brother-in-law was hospitalized and came home with a PICC line. Sara came in to be trained by the nurse on how to administer and care for the PICC line. She came in every afternoon before going to another client to do the PICC line for the required 10 days. She also worked closely with the hospice nurse. She learned how to bandage my sister’s legs when an unusual condition developed. She ordered needed supplies and communicated my sister’s needs, added her observations, and advocated for my sister. I found Sara to be a committed professional. We are so very grateful to have had her as we went through this journey.
