Testimonials
"MARIA IS THE MOST CARING NURSE!My mom suffered from Alzheimers for 10 years. We hired Maria to be her personal care taker while she was in long term care. The attention and love she showed our mom was beyond what anyone would expect. I truly believe my mom lived as long as she did because of the extra care and love Maria gave her. She assisted my mom with showers and took care to style her hair and make sure she always looked her best. She took time to feed her and make sure her every need was met. I will always be grateful for the love and attention she gave my mom."

"I have known Maria Welacha for some-three years. I came to know Maria when she was serving as my brother’s nurse at local Senior Care Facility. My brother was in the assisted living area where Maria had been serving for many years prior to my meeting her.Through conversations with Maria, I grew to realize that Maria possessed an uncommon love for people. I always felt assured that My brother was given the best possible care under Maria. The loving and kind heart which Maria owns become evident through the high level of care that she dispensed to all of her patients.Maria has the special gift of knowing that the physical care of an individual is only part of her work. Maria seems to gain great joy in helping her residents to feel special. Over a short period of time, my brother and Maria were able to build a solid working relationship.
I highly recommend Maria to anyone in need of a special care giver."

“My mother was in Maria’s care for over five years and there isn’t anyone else that showed more love, empathy and compassion. Maria is thoughtful, kind, trustworthy and always communicated well with family members. You or your family member would be blessed to be in her care and I have no doubt would be treated with dignity, respect and love.”
