About Maureen

I've worked in home care for over 25 years. Most of my clients lived alone but needed someone during the day for help so they did not have to go into a nursing facility. I worked with my last client for 81/2 years, until he departed. I’ve worked with families who’s loved ones had Alzheimer’s so I'm familiar with memory loss, personal care, helping with meals and other things associated with respite and long term care. I've been partially retired for about 4 years and would love to go back to work part time maybe even full time if the situation comes up. I enjoy my work and would love the opportunity to meet with you, or speak with you by phone. I live in the downtown area of Riverside.

Mike and Christine go to the same church as I do. I took care of Mike's mother for over a year before she passed away. I worked in-home and was responsible for personal hygiene, checking blood sugar, and giving insulin injections. I made sure she ate the proper diet, transported her to her doctor's appointments, and anything else I could do to help out around the house.

I chose a career in nursing to help and care for others. My personal value/belief system has always been to be compassionate. In the nursing profession you need to have an overwhelming amount of compassion and caring for your patients and their families. I know as a nurse I am not only caring for the patient's physical health, but also their emotional needs. During my clinical experience I enjoyed building rapport and trust with my patients. In order to do this kind of nursing you must have empathy and compassion. Personality and bedside manner are extremely important when caring for patients, however it is not the only aspect of nursing that will allow success, knowledge is truly the core of success in nursing. I am a mother and wife and have learned the skill of organization and prioritizing which helps me to be a better nurse and helps in providing the best health care to my patients.
