About Tammy

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, my name is Tammy and I have over 20 years experience assisting patients with multiple medical problems such as Alzheimers/Dementia, strokes, heart conditions, respiratory problems, and ortho conditions. I am a physical therapist assistant. I educate clients/ families in safe gait and transfer training, balance activities to facilitate righting reactions to decrease risk of falls, and exercises to maintain strength and mobility; as well as educating/assisting clients in activities of daily living (feeding/dressing/bathing. ) I'm compassionate, honest, dependable, and would be a valuable asset to assist your family's needs. When my mom received a terminal diagnosis, I moved in and cared for her. I truly believe in treating others how I would like to be treated. Therefore I'm known to treat my patients in the same way, as I would desire my family members to be cared for. I have many references and am well known in my community for the excellent way I care for others.

Tammy is the epitome of what a caregiver should be. She cared for my 97 year old Mom with kindness, compassion, patience, and love. She went above and beyond of what was expected of her to do. We have kept in touch even after my Mom’s passing and consider her like family. Anyone would be very lucky to have her caring for their loved one.
