Experience: 7 yrs
I have previously taken care of an elderly gentleman for 7 years. I was his full time caregiver and even did hospice at home when his health declined. I met him 7 years ago and he had no family or friends and suffered a stroke and couldn't advocate for himself or the doctors would brush off his concerns so I stepped in to help him out. At the time it was temporary then led to becoming like family and having Thanksgiving and Christmas together. I just wanted him to feel loved and cared for in his last moments. I just hope I can continue spreading love and joy to others and to make everyone feel special.
Deanna was an amazing companion to my 92 year old mother. They would go for short walks to the pond and sit and feed the ducks. She handle her episodes with such patience. She prevented slips and falls and everytime she came in my mother's room she would light up my mother's face. Deanna also cooked her meals from scratch, bathed and dressed her. She knew my mother loved having her hair curl and Deanna began learning how to curl her hair in curlers even though she wasn't familiar with them. They would have movie nights and even mani pedis at home. She really went out of her way to make my mother feel comfortable and happy.
