Hello! My name is Barbara and I have worked with seniors much of my life. My husband and I owned a successful health club in Upstate New Yor for over 25 years. I was a senior adviser for a nationwide health care program. I designed and implemented fitness classes for seniors and worked with members who had Alzheimer's. I moved to Ohio in 2015 and have been doing care giving ever since. It is my calling! I work 24 hour days and only care for one family at a time. I bring lots of skills and I can hire a team of experienced caregivers for you if it would help to lighten your load. I have done in home hospice, and early, and mid-stage Alzheimer's care. I have experience with Parkinsons, stroke rehab, cancer wound care, kidney disease, and keeping seniors physically and mentally active. I believe that seniors have wisdom that only time can produce, and I have always felt honored to be a part of their care.
Barbara and her assistant provided 24-hour care for my 93-year-old mother during the final months of her life, and they were truly angels. They were always on time, compassionate, and completely reliable. They treated my mother with dignity, patience, and genuine kindness. My mother loved them, and they became like family to us. I truly believe there is another family who needs this wonderful woman and the loving care she provides.
