About Marsha

I became a Caregiver in 2001. I simply fell in love with a facility that my Mother in-law had gone to look at. I had already been hired by a communications firm, but decided instead to change my profession. I worked as a Certified Caregiver for 3 years. I then decided to study to become a Certified Nursing Assistant. I took the course through the Red Cross in Prescott. Shortly thereafter, I took my test in Phoenix, AZ and became Licensed. I worked at Yavapai Regional Hospital in Prescott for close to 5 years. I retired when it was necessary to be to have back surgery. Last year I took on the Home Health role for a lady with severe Dementia and cancer. I cared for for her with love and compassion until she passed in late May.

    Private In-Home Caregiver

    Oct 2014 - May 2015
    Mr. Samual Corso
    I did overnight care two days a week. Occasionally for 3 days. Total care from meal preparations, bathing, laundry, occupational and physical therapy. I gave Mary Curso a great deal of my undivided time. We became very close and it was very hard to loose her!! I only drove the 90 miles, one-way, because I was a friend to her Daughter in-law and her Son.

    I'm a very caring compassionate person. My life is all about helping others whether through care giving or life experience . I have been in the care giving field in some capacity for over 20 years. I believe the elderly and disabled have a special job on this planet to teach patience and remind others to slow down. If I ever need help in the future I hope that someone is there to assist me.
