Cathy is one of our favorite caregivers. She’s always on time, is very detail oriented, and is a wonderfully caring companion. Cathy’s priority is what is best for mom while she’s here. She takes mom on long walks, does simple exercises with here, and tries to engage her in puzzles in mind games. When I arrive to relieve Cathy, mom is always calm and in a good mood. Her upbeat approach to her job, helps me relax, and not worry when I am not with mom. Mom looks forward to each visit, and I know she will be physically and emotionally stimulated.
