About Kevin

I am a mature, responsible and caring person. I worked for 30 years as a high school science teacher in the NYCDOE. I did paid geriatric home care during college and graduate school but also volunteered for a few years in a hospital feeding and providing mobility to patients. I have worked for a few years as a caregiver with another Baltimore agency with various geriatric and DDA-type clients who wrote glowing letters of recommendation to this agency. I acquired a Maryland Board of Nursing CMT license in order to provide better services to one of my clients who has now transitioned to self-directed DDA funding, and whom I am still working with in my 3rd year of service to him. I also worked in self-directed DDA services with an autistic young man. I take my job very seriously: to provide a caring and professional service. I also have a very good sense of humor and am very patient and kind in nature. Available for review: 1. My CJIS and Paycom background check certificates 2. COVID-19 vaccination record

I am a caregiver with more than 18 years of experience with seniors and people with special needs. I provide safe, respectful, loving, skilled care towards every one of my patients. I will deliver peace of mind to family members by keeping their loved ones safe while also protecting their independence and preserving their dignity. I give detailed information and pay close attention to my clients and to the families' needs. I have taken care of many people from family members, friends, and clients in facilities to group home members and privately cared for patients. Whatever the needs may be, I strive to go above and beyond my call of duty. Life is a treasure and if I can provide life or encouragement to anyone, or let them know that they are still loved and living with grace and dignity, I am that Angel. Many people lose their independence and feel lost. I can give clients, as well as their families, peace of mind knowing that things will work out fine. I have CPR/First Aid certification, Certified Home Health Aide, Certified Nurses Aide (CNA), Certified Medical Aide (CMA), am a residential counselor, provide individual service/support plans, behavior plans, & have experience with dysphasia, Alzheimer's & Dementia and much more. I have achieved more than 50 certificates and extensive training over the last decade. All families need a break from the worry and stress of caring for loved ones. Please call me to talk about what I can do for your family!
