About Tara

I have worked with elderly patients in the past with the following conditions: Alzheimer's, dementia, COPD, cancer, bedbound, and mobility issues. I am willing to work with most any condition meaning I'm very willing to learn. I'm very patient, kind, and believe every person should be cared for with love and compassion. I took care of both of my parents until they were put on hospice care and eventually passed away and found passion in working with the elderly.
