About Paula

I am a kind, caring and empathetic woman who worked in a physician's office for over 32 years. I am passionate about taking care of people particularly in a home setting helping them to navigate the medical system, bringing them to doctor's appointments as it can be a very confusing and daunting task trying to understand doctor's orders, changing medications, etc. After I retired I started my own cleaning business which lead to a catering business but I was always drawn back to caring for people which is my true passion.
