About Beverly

I respect the individual rights of others who need assistance with things they are no longer able to do physically or mentally. Understanding many apprehensions someone may have with allowing someone they don't know but must get to know for what they need the most in quality of life struggles. I've assisted many family members (some terminally ill) with personal cares to include my late husband. My heart goes out to those in need of care and I am prone to providing that assistance with pleasure if able. A client's inability to do what they would like can be frustrating, I love being able to help those in need with pleasure. It's the christian thing to do, in my mind. I am emotionally drawn to someone's needs to include assisting even in public with wheelchair assistance, walking assistance, in store help when I recognize the need for help, lifting or carrying bags, reading labels, visual help, etc. I've prepared many meals, assisted with housekeeping chores, personal care, transportation, errands and enjoy the companionship. I feel that I'm a natural caregiver being a nuturing mother and devoted wife for many years. I'd like to extend those services to whoever I can help as it will also help in fulfilling a purposeful lifestyle that I wish for. I
