About Mary

In 2007 while still working in the title industry I also started volunteering for Hospice, which I enjoyed very much and still do. I volunteered for Hospice of NM while under different management but took many hours of training which resulted in many patients in companionship. Some of my folks did come off of Hospice but many did not. I was voted by management and personnel as the number 1 volunteer for the organization. After a few years I had to take a break do to my other work schedule then decided to go into caregiving. I am not certified. Only experienced. The need for the elderly or homebound is abundant, now more than ever. I see to many elderly alone and afraid. They need help.

Helping Hands
I semi retired from a career in order to take care of the elderly. I presently have been working for a family where the Father had Alzheimers and the Mother has Dementia. They hired me from a church bulletin as a companion for the parents in their own home. The Father took more care than the Mother but he only lasted nine months with me and now I am a companion to the Mom. I take her for drives, clean house, do her laundry and prepare he meal for the day. I have been working with them now since 2019. I believe it is time for me to work with more people now while of course still working with the Mom. I need more interaction after 3 years. Thank you

I am a very patient and punctual person. I've worked with developmentally disabled, dementia, Parkinson's and hospice clients. I started caregiving because I love to help and make life better for everyone around me. I work well as a member of the team, but also do well on my own.
