We hired home instead for my 90+ parents for a few years and they really loved Milly she treated them as if they were relatives. It certainly takes a special person, extreme patiences to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy and Milly was the right fit for us.

Everyone has their own style in caring for another person. Caring for an elder person takes a special approach. Milly Santiago had that special approach. On her schedule visits, she made sure first and foremost that my parents received the attention and care to what their needs were that day regardless of anything else. She stepped up in assisted with my father‘s many many discomforts, Which included her taking him too many doctors or hospital visits. They were very saddened that they had to move into assisted living and loose the relationship they had with Millie. My parents ask for her all the time.
