COPD Caregivers in Harpswell - 10 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 enjoy helping people and making people happy. I have a great personality that can really fit into any situation. I really enjoy being someone that people can depend on.

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 have been a caregiver for 4 years, before I became a caregiver, I owns my own childcare for 23 years. I'm very caring, understanding, trustworthy and reliable. I love what I do, and most of all I love when I can make someone smile.

I have been in elderly care for 18yrs. From facilities to home care to private care. I am also a hospice trained. I love getting to know my consumers and who they were and are now.

In 2017 I graduated from nursing school with the intention of helping people be stay healthy and feel their best. I have been a registered nurse for two years now and am hoping to expand my caregiving career. It is my hope to help people maintain their quality of life and independence safely as they age. I enjoy reading, pets, going for walks, running errands and being out of doors.

My name is Sabrina I been in the industry for 4 years. I love taking care of people an I love my dog he's the most amazing dog I've ever had. I live in Maine. Having others to take care of is something I like to do. I also have kids a love being a mom. I'm very compassionate about the work that I do . I'm a certified registered medical assistant and I'm also cpr certified and have my mandated reporting certification also. I have been in the medical field for over 7 years I'm professional and proud of my accomplishments. I need more hours to be taking care of my family . I'm willing to do errands and spend quality time with a client . I'm willing to travel pretty far as long as it's gonna be worth it to do so, having a longer day with more hours makes my willingness to commute the distance so I'm open to travel. I also don't mind short shifts as long as I don't have to travel too far and have multiple short shifts is worth it to me I just need to make sure I can take care of my family my faith and my little girl. I'm open minded and want more clients to actually start getting hours.

I currently have 7 years experience in healthcare, graduated with A. A. S. in para-medicine and currently possess a State of Maine paramedic license. I have experience working in hospital ED's, transport services and in emergency services. I am currently pursuing a nursing degree and I am looking for PT work in home care. I have many years of experience working with different age groups both in and outside of healthcare and I have really enjoyed it! I also have the necessary skills that are needed to care for a person with healthcare issues such as medical monitoring, medication administration, nutrition, etc. I also have a solid understanding of the pathology of many different diseases and illness such as diabetes, dementia, heart disease and the like. Most importantly I possess critical thinking skills needed to identify an emergency or changes that may lead to the need for further care. I possess a high degree of both professionalism and empathy. I have a great sense of humor and a ton of life experience. I treat my patients just as I would my own family and friends. I also use care.com and you can find me there as well with a more extensive employment and background history.

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 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. :)
