For Elder Care in north Middlesex County and north Worcester County

I honestly don't think there's enough space on here to tell you how wonderful Angela Ashton has been for our family. As a caregiver for my aunt, I happen to live out of the area. Angela has been my eyes, ears, and such a wonderful blessing for advocating for my aunt while she was in a nursing home when I can't be there. I truly believe our elder family members need someone who genuinely cares about elderly individuals to advocate for them. Angela has been there for my aunt and myself, through so many challenges we faced. She helped with appointments, proper medications, meetings with the nurses and nurse practitioner, taking her to appointments, getting my aunt supplies for me, visiting her in the hospital, feeding her, etc. There isn't anything she hasn't done for myself and my family to help my aunt's stay in the nursing home be one of grace and dignity. When my aunt was in transition and had requested that she not be alone when she passed away, Angela made sure she or my aunt's companion would be there daily. If Angela couldn't be there, she would send a colleague in her place to help. I highly recommend LiveWell Elder Care Management to help you with your family member. You will not be disappointed and will be as blessed as my family, and I have been.

She has been managing key healthcare tasks for our aging parents, including coordinating specialized medical procedures for our Mom.This has been extremely valuable for us since we live time-zones away.It is obvious Angela has a passion for elder care given her level of expertise. She has gone above and beyond for us, even sacrificing her personal time to help us.It takes a special person to provide this kind of care for seniors, and we thank Angela tremendously for her services.

A visit with faraway family can be difficult when your loved one has dementia. Routines are reassuring, but travel—almost by definition—disrupts routine! With careful strategizing, however, you can still have a fun and loving visit.
