Elizabeth is a mother, a former teacher and an aspiring painter who lives alone in the home she purchased 40 years ago. A recent diagnosis has meant increased personal care needs and some difficulty handling her daily chores. Three times per week, Classic Caregivers provides care, companionship and help around the house with cleaning and meal preparation. For Elizabeth it brings peace of mind, assurance and a little more time to complete that masterpiece.
