Hello and Welcome to my Site. February 11, 2011

“To give unlimited opportunity to seniors and those with disabilities in order to preserve their independence and prevent social isolation” is critical to their quality of life… AND …providing quality service, timely reporting and meaningful conversations with loved ones is critical to their loved ones’ quality of life as well.

When you can count on someone to make sure your loved one is well cared for and taken out and about to appointments and shopping. That their wishes will be respected and their independence maintained to the degree it is safe and prudent. That they are having a good time in the process! Then you can relax and know that more than their basic wants and needs are being met. My clients tell me over and over they are so grateful that Mom or Dad really enjoy going out with me. They appreciate that I keep them up to date as to how they are doing, what the Doctor might have said or if they need anything provided that I can’t supply.

Having been there myself, I know how difficult it can be when you don’t have sufficient time or energy to meet the needs of a failing parent. Distance, other obligations and commitments elsewhere are sometimes overwhelming when faced with family crisis. Having someone close by who will step in until family arrives has been my privilege in the past.

I began my Driving Miss Daisy service in the Fall of 2009. I believe my previous experience as a professional driver, seniors’ advisor and energy medicine practitioner allow me a unique perspective of my clients. In January 2011, I invited Geoff Smith to join me in providing excellent care and service to the folks of mid-Vancouver Island. Geoff’s references were unanimously in favour of his kindness and professionalism. He has proven to be a wonderful “Companion”!

I hope this has been helpful for you. Please call me for further information or for references. I look forward to talking with you.

Yours, in service,
