About Caregiver's Aide

Don & Karen Shiffert Caregivers Aide LLC, established in 2007, is a small woman owned business in Pennsylvania USA.

I am Karen Shiffert, a seamstress for 40 years, and owner of Caregivers Aide. I use this knowledge and skill of traditional sewing methods to produce items that may help caregivers - those caring for mobility challenged individuals- a little easier. The photo above is my husband who suffered with Parkinson’s Disease, and me, in a caregiving moment.

Through Caregivers Aide I share items I made and found useful in caring for my husband who had Parkinson's disease for 15 years. He was 86 years old when he passed away from the disease in 2013.

Caregivers Aide represents my continued connection with you as the person giving care to your patient or loved one. I understand how difficult it is to care for your loved one. You want the best for them, but you also must be careful and mindful of your own physical limitations.

I designed and made my products out of need, and they work. If I had not had these items, I do not know how I would have cared for him that long. With the help of my products and extra caregiving helpers, he was able to remain at home, never needing to go to a nursing home.

In addition to our own Caregivers Aide products, we offer products from other sources. These products from others add to the arsenal of useful tools that may make giving care easier for both the caregiver and the care patient. Thank you for considering Caregivers Aide, LLC products.
