About Martha

Experience: 10 yrs

As a dedicated, compassionate caregiver, I take pride in my ability to provide both skilled support and a joyful presence for those in my care. I'm a licensed and insured RN. Caring for my own mother who had dementia in her 90s gave me my best experience. I lived with her the last three years; kept her active; conversant; hired caregivers; worked with hospice for two years. I'm physically fit and able to perform a broad range of skills from providing essential daily hygiene assistance such as bathing and toileting to helping with therapies, meds including shots, surgery aftercare. I also possess a deep sense of patience for clients facing confusion and other dementia related challenges. My services extend to include housekeeping, laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, running errands, etc. See reviews in CARE. com app. I'm proud to provide excellent references on request. Feel free to call or text for ways I can assist you. Can do short term, fill-ins, flexible days and schedule.

Martha has a lot of patience with my mother! She is very reliable and has been flexible when my mother’s schedule has changed. We had also been trying to get my mother to get out and do things rather than just sit and home but Martha was actually successful at getting her out. She has also picked up on health problems that my mother or her dog were having. I live two hours away so I have to rely on the caregivers for updates and Martha has been very good at doing so. She is also very good at finding activities my mother might like. I feel very comfortable knowing my mother is in good hands.
