She is also adept at providing hospice care and understanding the delicate nature of end-of-life care. Furthermore, Maria excels in performing range-of-motion exercises, managing incontinence care, and providing wheelchair assistance, highlighting her extensive skill set.

She brings professionalism, emotional intelligence, and personal warmth into her role—ensuring that her clients receive exceptional physical care and the much-needed emotional support they deserve.
