About Margaret

Experience: 8 yrs

I'd describe my personality as delightful and hard worker. I like caring for seniors because my love language is a nurturer/giver. I'm looking for a job that is the right fit. I started caring for seniors when I changed careers from being a teacher in 2016. In my spare time, I like to relax and go to festivals with friends. One thing you should know about me is I'm patient and kind. My skills include hospice, end of life care, grooming, companion care, medication management, lite housekeeping, and knowledge based of medical equipment.

Margaret has been working for us for a couple of months now. We are very pleased with her. She does, whatever is asked, and she pays attention to detail. I don’t need to worry when I leave House when my grandmother is in her care. She is very happy to help her with dressing, bathing, etc., and she also is willing to cook and make sure light cleaning and laundry are done. She always leaves things at least as clean as she found them and often better. She engages my grandmother and me in conversation, and she is also eager to make sure her elderly clients are able to be out and about if they are well enough to do so. I can’t say enough good things about her! She is a good driver and works both day and night for us particularly on weekends and response quickly to my grandmother‘s needs throughout the night. Margaret is always kind, and she really does care about her clients and respects the needs of the families for whom she works. I so appreciate her dedication and experience. She’s always trying to figure out what else she can do to help!
