Abby’s Bio

I am passionate about being a care companion for the elderly, with extensive experience working with a variety of patients, including those with Alzheimer's and dementia. I have worked in a hospital for several years, with 5 years in medical-surgical and 3 years in rehabilitation, primarily assisting accident and stroke patients. My background in public health, combined with my patient and compassionate nature, enables me to provide high-quality, empathetic care to those in need.
