Arthritis Caregivers in Harpswell - 9 caregivers found

I'm an extremely empathetic, caring and compassionate person. I am a caretaker by nature and have always felt that doing such work I was born to do. I grew up taking close care of family members and got great joy from doing so. I feel caretaking gives me incredible purpose and can't imagine doing anything else.

I took care of my mom for about 10 years until she passed away last year in November I like to take care of people

I've been a Certified Life & Wellness coach since 1996. After moving to Maine, I opened my private practice in Yarmouth. And started volunteering at ME Handicapped Skiing (now ME Adaptive Sports & Recreation), & with disabled veterans. For reasons beyond my personal control, I had to close my private practice. So I decided to use my skills serving others in a different capacity, this time focusing on the elderly population in Maine as well as Hospice service. I started as a caregiver with 3 different agencies in the Portland area. After 2 yrs, I 'down-sized' to two agencies in order to get certified as a CRMA. Quite often I am asked to start the service with a new client. Several times family members of a 24X7 client requested for me to be the primary caregiver and to coordinate the day to day client needs. In fact, it was commented that "when Maria is out, things really don't go well. As soon as she's back, everything flows so smoothly." My biggest personal achievement was to be selected "VNA's caregiver of the Year 2016". Ive becobecextended famiky to my elderly clients and hospice patients, as they have become to me. I'm honored & feel priviledged to serve my clients/patients at end of life as well as providing respite for family members and guiding them throughout the weeks/days before & after losing a loved one. My life's journey has taken me all over the world. I speak numerous languages, have lived on several continents, learned skiing at 47, ballroom dance competitor at 49, certified diver at 52., and now plan to get my private pilot's license by my 70th Birthday. Having supported my husband and only son during their cancer journeys, I learned that we cannot take anything for granted in life. We must find our own way of living life to the fullest each and every moment. I'm grateful for all the people who have touched my life. Each and every one has been a gift to me as I have been a gift to them. I hope to touch many more lives.

I am an 38 years old black African who's very dedicated, patient, compassionate, attentive, trustworthy person. I had many people in my own family who needed help and assistance. I grew up in an environment that make me to understand what they've been going through and he creates in me the passion and love to aid. Life it's to short and we need to make sure to be there when other needs us. l like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. You take pride in your attention to detail. You don't want a desk job; you like being physical in your job and using your body as well as your brain. There is many achievement in my life but the best one i believe it's putting a smile in my client face.

I became a caregiver because I love helping people. Caring for people is a honest attitude for me. I am a social service worker as well and in school for Cna. In my previous state Connecticut I also was a medical asst. Here in maine you need to exam all over. Where healthy help is needed I love to be there.

New CNA!! I have always wanted to pursue my future in the medical field. I love what I do, it is such a rewarding job! Home care provides more personal and comforting care. Until and during I go to college my plan was to do home care!

First and foremost I'm a mommy to a beautiful little girl. I am patient, compassionate and I listen to each individual need. There is something special about being able to care for someone else's loved ones, I feel privileged to have the opportunity to provide a service that others cannot. I have ample experience working in a whole range of scenarios from 1:1 in home to facility. I have the proper training to care for those with physical and memory care issues. This is my calling, it's what I love to do.

I'm very friendly, caring, and dedicated! I love helping people and am more than happy to be a companion or keep someone company! I think it is important to keep the elder popular entertained and feel cared for!

I have a disabled younger brother and was raised by my grandmother. I have always wanted to help others and have always been in a situation that I was able too and I don't see myself doing anything else but this for work. I have worked in a private facility with my amazing work partner with the same experience if not more- we are both looking for a one on one that requires a two person assist as we live together and commute together we will not disappoint with our knowledge and professionalism, as we are both asking for an hourly rate I hope you will take into consideration that two is better than one when it comes to taking care of your loved ones so every little detail can be monitored with fresh eyes and extra hands. :)
