I have cared for the elderly, lonely and homebound and increased their quality of life and length of life. I was a Certified Hospice Volunteer in NH for 15 years and on the Board for 5. My client had 6 months to live, with no family, and under my care thrived for 3 years. I was my Mother's primary caregiver for 5 years while working FT. I took a year off from work to serve as my Father's primary caregiver, and took care of my elderly Grandfather when he was living with us. Additionally, I started a program called "The Good Shephard", which had my fellow church congregants bring Communion and Prayer to the housebound on Sunday mornings. I make a difference in the lives' of the elderly or homebound. I help families with aging parents and provide them with respite. I've been in the family's shoes and know the value of a genuine, experienced caregiver with a strong sense of purpose I'm a natural empath who is extremely compassionate towards all of humanity.

Are you able to give ten stars? if so, Alison is a 10 out of 10. Her compassion, empathy, caring, calmness, and personality are just some of the things that make her so special. She jumped right in on day one and even took on some additional tasks as needed. We loved having her work with our mom but more importantly, mom loved working with her too! Now that mom is moving to Assisted Living, she is free to help you with your care needs.
