About Van

Experience: 10 yrs

I love working with seniors. It's more than a job for me. I love the work I do. I give 100% at all times. It is about the quality of life, rather than the quantity of life. I have 30 years experience with several different situations including Dementia and Alzheimer's. I have taken care of couples as well as individual male and females. I would to love to talk to see if I am a good fit for your love one.

Van enriched the lives of my family & 91 year-old father with dementia from April 2023 until December 2024. When we began our journey together, I told her I knew what dad's current needs were & only knew that they would increase over time. I was looking for someone that would care for my dad the way I would. Van exceeded my expectations. She possesses the medical knowledge & experience to take charge of all dad's many healthcare needs as well as advise the family & suggest aids in maintaining independence, safety & comfort. Van managed dad's medications, calendar, took him to medical appts & kept me thoroughly informed. She also maintained the organization & upkeep of our home during weekdays, which included caring for our dogs, my husband & myself. Van is a wonderful cook & indulged dad daily with his favorite meals & introduced him to new favorites. She frequently brought him special delights that she cooked at home. She made him feel loved & they celebrated life daily.
