About Linda

I have been caring for seniors in their own homes for over 20 years. I have had a variety of cases with every kind of illness. I enjoy helping seniors to enjoy quality of life in the home where they have raised families or enjoyed retirement. I have had full responsibility of med management, transportation to Dr. appointments, physical therapy, grocery shopping and housekeeping. I have supplied companionship, meal planning and preparation and enjoyed sharing in the rich histories of the seniors I have been honored to serve. I believe that I am a strong advocate for seniors and passionate about dignity and quality of life.

To be a caregiver is all I've ever wanted to do, I feel like I was born to be a caregiver. And I really love to communicate with elders. I can learn more life experience from them. Also I will be happy when I have the ability to bring some comfort to the elderly, that's so wonderful to see the smile on their face.
