Rose A. Farmer Hartman, CHHA
Rose A. Farmer Hartman is a dedicated caregiver and notary professional with more than two decades of experience serving individuals and families with compassion and integrity. A Certified Home Health Aide since 2003, Rose began her career in nursing homes before transitioning into home care, where she could provide more personalized, one-on-one support. Her caregiving philosophy centers on companionship, dignity, and emotional connection—ensuring that clients not only receive proper care, but also feel valued, supported, and never alone. In addition to her healthcare background, Rose has built an extensive career as a Notary Public, serving clients since 1997.
Rose started her notary business in New Jersey and now operates in North Carolina as the owner of Roses Signature Notary. Through her business, she provides mobile notary and loan signing services, assisting individuals during important life moments that often involve critical legal and financial decisions. With hundreds of positive client reviews, Rose is known for her reliability, attention to detail, and ability to guide clients through complex documentation with ease and reassurance. Her dual expertise allows her to uniquely support clients in healthcare settings, including nursing homes and hospitals, where notarization and caregiving often intersect.
Beyond her professional work, Rose finds joy in spending time with her grandson and connecting with veterans, listening to their meaningful and inspiring stories. She proudly supports veterans as the daughter of a beloved retired veteran, a role that has deeply influenced her values of service, compassion, and respect for others.
Rose’s work is deeply rooted in empathy and a genuine desire to help people through both everyday needs and life’s most vulnerable moments. Whether caring for a client who has experienced loss or assisting someone with essential legal documents, she approaches every interaction with kindness, patience, and professionalism. Through both her caregiving and notary services, Rose continues to make a lasting impact in her community by combining skill, heart, and an unwavering commitment to service.
She would like to dedicate this feature to her beloved father, Leo T. Farmer Jr. (01/30/1938 – 01/28/1998).

What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?
What I enjoy most about the work I do is the companionship I can provide to my clients. They are very lonely, especially the ones that have lost loved ones and they don't have anybody. It's just the companionship that they don't have from another family member. They tell you not to get close, but it's hard not to get close when they don't have anybody. I love being able to make them feel like they're loved and cared for, because I know a lot of them don't have family or the family abandoned them. It's very rewarding when my clients say thank you and I can put a smile on their face. A smile lasts a lifetime for them.
