Experience: 10 yrs
I've worked in the healthcare industry for over 35 years as an advocate for access to care issues. More specifically, I worked for Medical House Call Program, directed by the Washington Hospital Center in DC for 5 yrs where I learned so much about senior care and their specifics concerns and needs. I'm now mostly a stay at home mom but looking to help any family in need of an honest, caring, hardworking advocate for their loved one. Just like I'd want for my own. I have also been a volunteer hospice visitor as well as bereavement facilitator for seven years. And an INELDA trained End if Life Doula for over two years. I have experience with chronic disease clients, hospice clients, and dementia and Alzheimer's.
Dana is absolutely perfect help for my mom. Mom is 85 years old and has mild/moderate dementia. Dana is kind, patient, and reliable. She's there when says she'll be there, and texts me with a quick weekend report on Mondays. I feel very comfortable knowing Dana is watching out for mom. Mom had a couple unexpected issues, and Dana was a huge help taking care of them.
