“More than anything else, Always Good Company is about forging relationships.
Our care for clients goes well beyond the defined parameters of a particular shift.
You’ll find our caregivers taking their clients out for a birthday lunch
or just stopping by to check on someone, even when they’re not technically
'on the clock.' You can’t do this job well unless you show a genuine interest
in the individuals you care for — and that’s what sets our team apart.
It’s also the part I’m most proud of.”

Kirsten


What inspired you to become a caregiver? 

If ever there was an empath, it is Kirsten. Since childhood, she has always been keenly aware of other's feelings and emotions. Once Kirsten reached adulthood, she knew she wanted to carry that with her into her career.

Kirsten has worked in several fields of medicine, such as fertility and weight loss, which requires compassion, empathy, and an extraordinary ability to connect with people. From friends, to family, to clients, they will all tell you she is always there to give a good hug, share a laugh, or wipe away a tear. Her experiences with private caregiving in recent years has brought her joys and bonds like she had never experienced. She looks forward to giving back to those who have lived such full lives.

Fun Fact: Kirsten was the kid who always won the school Spelling Bee's, and has a strange ability to find errors in pretty much any website or written material. It is both a blessing and a curse.

Another fun fact about Kirsten is that she cannot wink, despite her best efforts. So when you see her covering one eye with her hand and blinking

the other, she's not rehearsing her best pirate impression; she's just trying to wink at you! It is guaranteed to bring a smile, even if it looks silly.
