About Margaret

I'm a caregiver for seniors. My client experience spans from the early onset of dementia to end-of-life hospice patients. My daily task is that of a homemaker, cooking cleaning, running errands, taking my client to appointments, and of course, caregiving. Each client is special, with individual needs. I provide companionship plus assistance with all their needs, dressing, personal care, standby assistance for fall risk clients, nail care, bathing, medication reminders, or whatever the family requires. I'm warmhearted and professional. I enjoy working in the home environment and find helping seniors and their families rewarding in so many ways. My work is unblemished. I have a current CPR card, am a good cook and always adjust the menus to my clients' needs. I'm very patient and always regard my clients with the utmost respect and dignity they deserve. I look forward to hearing from you. My schedule is always in flex. At this time, March, 2024 I am available in the morning, Monday through Friday. .

I've been working with elderly and disabled folks for over 25 years, and I truly enjoy what I do. I began working in nursing homes at the age of 18, and spent many years working as a CNA (nurses' aide) and a CMA (medication assistant). I have experience working in adult foster homes, group homes and in private homes as well. I have encountered people with a broad range of physical, psychological, and medical challenges over the years. You will find that I'm compassionate, patient, honest and reliable. Currently I work for a local in-home care agency, but there are long gaps in my schedule, and I find myself frequently without a full-time assignment. I prefer overnight shifts, but am willing to pick up evening hours and short shifts as well. I can occasionally work for a few hours during the day from time to time, but being an overnight caregiver demands i keep a regular sleep schedule. Finally, I am happy to work weekends!
