I can help with Transportation Services and Dementia. I have a heart for elderly people. I took care of my father for 10 years. I cared for a Vietnam veteran with stage 4 cirrhosis of the liver, kidney failure, diabetes. He used a manual sit to stand, Manuel wheelchair, electric wheelchair, sara flex to stand and hoyer lift. I am CPR trained as well as trained on peritoneal dialysis. I am dependable, reliable and on time. I am a non smoker and non drinker. I can provide glowing references from past positions. I can go on all doctor and therapy appointments, and help organize medications. I communicate to family members about all aspects of care. I cook, organize and maintain excellent cleanliness standards. I provide personal companionship and emotional support.
If you have the opportunity to hire Maureen, jump on it. We won the caregiver lottery with her and sadly our time is over because my dad passed on. Maureen had the utmost compassion for my dad. She loved my dad as if he were her own father for the past 3 1/2 years. She was also extremely competent with his complex medical situation. My mother was the only other person who knew him that well, and so much to say that I think Maureen had a better handle on it. My dad had a stroke, very limited mobility, dementia, peritoneal dialysis, wounds, orthopedic issues, just to name a few. She can handle anything. With assertiveness and love. And any time we had a medical emergency at home she knew exactly what to do. My dad needed lots of care - pretty much 18 hours per day. And she was my his primary caregiver. She would be the one giving the part-time caregivers detailed instructions about his daily routines with either 1-on-1 instruction or photos and videos. Seriously, Maureen’s level of care, knowledge, attention to detail is unmatched. You won’t find another one like her.
