About Barbara

I have 25 years of experience. I can help with Home Care & Dementia. I started in 1996 doing fitness with the elderly. I worked as a pt assistant & worked with clients that had strokes & disabilities that needed physical therapy. I'm certified in motor skills for the disabled & taught at Dorbrook & private homes for the Arc of Monmouth. I became a manager for the Arc for 5 years. I was certified from the state for medication, first aide & medical. I went to Fitzmaurice in Penn. where I managed 2 homes for people with disabilities. Throughout my years I had clients with all different illnesses & disabilities, all different ages. My last lady became bedridden & sadly passed away. I was with her for 2 years. I bathed, massaged, stretched her & truly care for all her needs. I was with a wonderful gentleman in his 80's for 21/2 yrs. I did everything from medication, all appointments, grooming, meals, light housekeeping, errands, groceries etc. I was not just his caretaker but his companion
