My name is Donna Perron. Opening Ark on the River as an alternative care service for seniors has been an exciting opportunity for me. My desire is to provide health care to the residents the same way I would want my own parents cared for and to provide the opportunity to age in place through the end of life. Through my years of experience caring for seniors in their homes, I have realized the benefit of providing them with a sense of community in a family atmosphere with gentle, loving assistance.I believe one of the keys to helping seniors thrive through their autumn years is to offer them guidance with respectful communication. Along with these principles, I feel it is important to offer choices so that seniors are able to maintain a sense of dignity and control over their own lives. I am realizing my personal dream of providing this type of service and care to your loved ones in my home.
