Hear from Clients We’ve Served in Shorewood
“The employees are outstanding. The person who does some scheduling and billing is excellent and the care-worker is outstanding. She has a good rapport with my mother, is very caring, and is very competent at handling my mother who has trouble getting up. I've been caring for my mother for a while and don't have to help her with her bathroom needs anymore because of the caregiver.”
“They have taken a big weight off of my shoulders knowing that there is a company I can trust with health care individuals that can help my mom out. All of the workers have been very wonderful, and my mom enjoys them. I like that there has been a great level of detail, and the manager has worked really hard to meet my mom's needs. I live far away, so she has been very helpful in managing my mom's case, given I am so far away.”

Hi! I’m Wendy! I’ve worked as a Caregiver at the San Camillo senior facility for 5 years and with a home care agency for the last year. I enjoy cooking for my clients.

I truly enjoy working with dementia clients. I’ve spent a great deal of time learning about the types and stages of dementia and how to interact with those with this disease to get the best outcome.

I also am an avid reader of British detective stories. I love to travel and have traveled extensively both domestically and overseas. I am interested in different cultures, traditions, and people. My client’s families can count on me to care for their loved ones with respect and dignity and compassion. Just as I would care for my own family member.
