Emma D.
I provide care and assistance to clients of any age who have defined health care needs or who require help or companionship with their daily activities at home or in long-term care settings. My private services offer client-centred care, making a difference in people’s lives by alleviating loneliness, providing empathy, ensuring comfort, encouraging independence, and promoting self-respect. I support my clients and their families holistically, addressing their physical, psychological, social, cognitive, cultural, and spiritual needs while speaking or acting on the client’s behalf.
Having a personal experience of being bedridden for two years in my mid-teens, I can fully understand the needs and feelings of those who are incapable of caring for themselves. My personalized approach to supporting clients' activities of daily living makes people feel comfortable and independent, minimizing their distress and enabling them to stay in the comfort of their homes.
