THANK YOU Kraig!

Posted on May 16th, by Mark Winter in OUR Caregivers. No Comments

The Hired Hands Homecare Team raises our glasses to Kraig, as our most recent Caregiver of the Month!

We had the pleasure of surprising Kraig while he was on shift with his client, Stanley.  When we presented the award, Stanley smiled and said that he wanted to “look up in admiration at Kraig holding his award” for the picture for our office Wall of Fame. It was a moment filled with warmth, appreciation, and lots of smiles. Kraig and Stanley can often be found sharing a quiet afternoon working on crossword puzzles or a competitive game of scrabble.  Either  usually includes enjoying a bowl of ice cream!  While Stanley remains undefeated in their friendly games, Kraig more than makes up for it with his compassionate heart, knowledge of caregiving, and unwavering dedication. Kraig is one of our highly skilled caregivers and also … Read More »
