About MARIA

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been a guiding light in home care and hospice care for over 25 years, helping individuals and their families navigate complexities of aging and end-of-life with dignity and grace. I like a more intimate way of helping people and that is why I turned to in-home care giving. I am a warm, compassionate and caring person. My medical background and extensive experience in the field help me organize and provide exceptional care for my patients round the clock. My skills include dealing with people afflicted with Alzheimer's, Lewy Body, Parkinson's, Diabetes, Heart conditions, helping with their daily activities, social life, driving, checking vital signs, administering medications, using medical equipment, meal prep, monitoring and reporting changes in health and behavior, providing close communication with family and doctors. An extensive list of outstanding recommendations from families can be provided upon request. I've worked for 5+ and 10+ years at a time for some families.

Maria has been a caretaker for our father for almost a year. He is 88 with Parkinson's and living in his long time home. Maria does live in caregiving on weekends and has been a kind and professional caregiver. She keeps our Dad active and engaged. She keeps his place clean and prepares excellent food. She has strong nursing skills. She is reliable / timely and patient. She has a history of strong relationships with the families she works with and we are glad to act as a reference for her as she seeks any work during the week.
