About Maria

Experience: 10 yrs

I have several years of experience taking care of elderly. Most recently I worked 2 years as a live in care taker for a 90-year-old senior who had Alzheimer. My duties with her included the every day duties such as bating, dressing, healthy meal preparation, light housekeeping and keeping company in addition I would take her to doctors appointments, taking vital signs daily, ensured medications were taken as well as doctors instructions. In addition to her having Alzheimer she suffered from Diabetes, arthritis, Glaucoma, high blood pressure and a previous heart operation. We enjoyed each others company and on her good days I would take her to stores to run her errands and to mass every Sunday. I am patient, responsible, kind, ethical, positive attitude, organized, understanding, compassionate, respectful.

Maria cared for our 90 year old mother/grandmother for 2 and half years as a daily caretaker. Maria was with us through her cognitive and physical decline becoming wheelchair and eventually bed bound following several strokes. Her duties included bathing, personal hygiene, feeding and administering numerous medical therapies which became more intensive over time (oral medications, nebulization, bandage changes, etc). She is very knowledgeable in nutrition, wound care and senior health/wellbeing in general which was vital for us. She went out of her way to keep my grandma engaged as long as possible and comfortable in every way imaginable. Maria’s love, patience, commitment and dedication to our grandma was second to none. Maria was by our family’s side up until my grandmother’s passing in her home under hospice care. We were so blessed to have found Maria and highly recommend her.
