About Ephraim

My passion for care first began when I visited my grandma at a nursing home once she was diagnosed with dementia. After spending time with elderly people, I was amazed to learn how wonderful and hilarious they can be. I also realized how much elderly people enjoy having in-depth conversations and telling stories full of great advice. My visit taught me how important it is to offer assistance to those who need it. The visit also taught me to acquaint myself with people who I do not know in the spirit of encouraging and empowering individuals. Providing service to people in need is my passion - I want to help those who cannot help themselves.

    \"My passion for caretaking came when my grand dad was left under my care and I took care of him until he passed away. Since then, I have been taking care of loved ones until they've sadly departed. All of my experience has been hands-on and I can assist in all aspects of home care from companionship to bathing/dressing, to meal preparation. I can also assist in managing doctor visits and ensuring that doctors stay coordinated. I am a certified CNA / LPN With the Maryland Board of Nursing and also certified in First Aid, CPR and AEDs for adults and children. My hobbies are reading and spending time with family, time permitting. I have references available upon request, and they would be happy to speak with you about the level of care I have for my patients and the type of care I offer. I'm open to short-term engagements, but prefer longer-term so I can build your trust over time and provide care in a way that meets each of your unique needs. I would enjoy talking about helping you or your loved one.
