I cannot recommend Karen highly enough. She has been helping my mother twice a week at an assisted living facility, and the difference she has made in my mother’s life has been extraordinary. When my mother first moved into assisted living, she struggled with the transition. Karen helped her adjust with patience, kindness, and genuine care — and over time, helped her truly thrive. She takes her to medical appointments and explains everything clearly afterward, leads her in exercise, drives her to see friends, and brings her to social events. She even takes her to get her hair done and out shopping, helping her maintain both independence and dignity. Karen is professional, reliable, intelligent, patient, respectful, and easygoing. She has a wonderful sense of humor and is a delightful companion. Most importantly, she truly cares. She didn’t just help my mother adjust — she expanded her life.
