About Melinda
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello, my name is Melinda, & I have 25+ years of personal experience as a caregiver. I'm experienced w/ cancer patients, hospice, alzheimer's, dementia, & post-operative care. My skills include bathing, toileting, incontinence, hygiene, ambulation, mobility/exercise, & medication reminders. I take accurate records of the day & will keep family members informed. I'm a great cook & can prepare meals including those on dietary restrictions. I'm happy to help w/light housekeeping such as laundry, changing bed linens & vacuuming. I own a reliable vehicle, have a clean background/driving record, & have been live scanned/fingerprinted/registered with the state. I am very kind, compassionate, encouraging, & very patient. I always treat those in my care with love & respect. I prefer to work with loving and kind families who need support/respite care.

Melinda is the BEST! She has come to help our family as we are navigating some tricky health challenges with my mom. She is so kind and caring - everyone loves her! The most incredible part is her flexibility and commitment. She has taken on the role of cook, dog walker, general helper - anything that is helpful as we are working through the best care for my mom. She is a great communicator and we feel very fortunate to have her connected to our family. We are so thankful for her warmth and care for us all!
