About Martin

My entire life consists of care giving. In addition to helping seniors, I have helped grandparents before they left me as well as friends with HIV. I'm an organic vegetable and flower gardener. I own and love rescue animals. I love being a caregiver every time the patients either smile or thank me because I know that I have made them happy.

I work 20-25 hours a week caring for two separate men living in assisted care. One is 91 years old, I sponge bathe him 3 times a week, diaper change/shave/brush teeth/comb hair daily. I occasionally have to assist him with eating. The other is a 69 year old with pcp. I'm his companion and take him out on occasion. I'm very happy with the work but need 40+ hours a week.

My interest in caregiving started at an early age. Every sunday after church I would visit the sick and shut in members and others who requested prayers. I then attended a Medical Specialty High School and was involved in volunteering at local Adult Day Cares. When I was about 15 years of age my grandmother started developing Dementia and shortly after had a stroke. I became her main caregiver; cooking, cleaning, reading to her when not in school. I love the fact that I get to make a difference in someones day to day life. I tried many different ventures and always ends back into caregiving. This is what I'm meant to do and I'm good at it and enjoy doing it.
