Doreen Carbone Our March CAREGiver of the month. Sharon Kilmer February CAREGiver of the Month Harmony Jones
Perhaps the most precious client our company can ever have is a former CAREGiver. It doesn't happen often, thank goodness, but it does happen. When it does, we want to do everything in our power to make sure that our very special client is matched with the best possible CAREGiver for her needs. In the past few months, Harmony Jones has gone above and beyond on a regular basis for one of these very special clients. These two get along as if they have known each other forever, and they have become part of each other's extended families as well. Harmony, your care of and affection for your client has not gone unnoticed by those of us who knew her client "back when", and we appreciate everything you do, very much.   Jenny Heyden We have known from the time Jenny worked with her first client nearly four years ago that she was a very special kind of CAREGiver. Every single client she has ever had without exception has raved about her. Asking Jenny to fill in here and there became impossible, because after having Jenny the clients only wanted her; they did not want their regular CAREGivers back. We needed to know what it was that made Jenny so special. From the viewpoint of the office staff, she was a good, solid, reliable caregiver, very circumspect about her private life. Try as we might, we couldn’t pinpoint anything that made her an outstanding CAREGiver. We had to delve deeper, and it was in bits and pieces of conversations with clients and fellow CAREGivers, conducted over time, that a picture began to emerge, and suddenly it all made perfect sense.
Jenny Heyden envelopes her clients with a caring, considerate attitude. From the moment she enters their homes she is on. Every word spoken, every move she makes is for the benefit of her client. As a result, her clients feel well cared for, cherished and safe.
What Jenny does for her clients isn’t something that can be taught; it has to come from within. We wish we could bottle it, but since that is not possible we can at least recognize this exceptional CAREGiver by nominating her for this honor. She certainly deserves it, many times over! Congratualtions on being our 2010 CAREGiver of the YEAR Jenny!   Maureen Cole Our December CAREGiver of the Month has made an impression on us because of her genuine commitment to her clients. From the moment she begins with a client she gives them her all. Our best example of this attitude of caring happened on Thanksgiving. When Maureen Cole's client was involved in an accident the day before Thanksgiving, and thus couldn't go out to dinner as they planned, Maureen took her own Thanksgiving meal and prepared it in thier home. The three of them enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving together. It takes a special person to do something so very generous, and that is just what Maureen is - a very special person and a terrific CAREGiver. Congratulations on being our final CAREGiver of the Month for this year and this decade!   Tina Cunnane
Congratulations to Tina Cunnane on being our November Caregiver of the Month. The day Tina walked in we knew two things: we had just added a first-rate caregiver to the roster, and we had comic relief as well. Tina has handled challenges that would have had many asking to be reassigned or, at the very least, reduced to tears, and she has done it with only occasional bouts of stress-induced lunacy, uh, I mean venting ;) . Only Tina could find humor in discovering a nest of baby rats in a box of precious family photographs while one of her clients is happily padding around wearing only a shirt and sneakers. I don’t know about Tina, but my ribs still hurt from laughing, and we all hope she continues the good work she does for her clients – and for us – for a long time to come!   Elaine Pridmore Since joining us several months, ago, our October Caregiver of the Month has proven to be an exceptional employee. She is reliable, flexible with her schedule, and well liked by all of her clients (and us!). Even though she appears to be quiet and easygoing, she can be tenacious when digging in her heels on behalf of her clients. She never stops thinking of ways to engage, entertain and stimulate her clients. For these reasons and many more, we are happy to congratulate Elaine Pridmore on being our October Caregiver of the Month.   Margaret Mahadeo We are pleased to annouce that for the second time in our 13 years as a franchise, our CAREGiver of the Year has also gone on to receive the honor as Regional CAREGiver of the Year. Margaret joined our staff in October 2007, and since that time, seldom does a day go by that we do not give thanks for having the great pleasure of working with her. As a live-in CAREGiver, it takes a very special type of person to weather the ups and downs of 24-hour care. Margaret is such a devoted, intuitive, and incredibly compassionate individual. We are honored to have Margaret on our staff as a Regionally recognized CAREGiver of the Year. |
