Experience with Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, Parkinson's, and lewy-body Parkinson's. Light PT and senior exercises. Medicine management-administering and filling weekly/monthly pill containers. Vitals. Managing meals according to individuals diet. Doctor's appointments and errands. Hospice and end of life care. I have worked 20 years previously in the medical field on the administrative side and switched over to home care after taking care of loved ones. I find great satisfaction in taking care of seniors in need and helping family's to take care of their loved ones and ease some of the worry and workload. I'm very dependable and have an uplifting and positive personality. Reliable and insured transportation and a clean driving record. I feel consistency and routine is important when taking care of a senior. I'm versatile in the likes of this individual whether it be music, sports, history and all different hobbies and stimuli activities to boost the brain.

Melissa was my mom's caregiver for approximately four years. I am so grateful to Melissa for the compassionate care and friendship she had given my mom. The knowledge she obtained from her past experiences gave her a keen awareness of knowing when my mom's physical or mental status wavered, and she would respond responsibly and notify us immediately. Our family is truly blessed to have had Melissa walk this often difficult road alongside us as my mom's caregiver, companion and loving friend. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone seeking a compassionate, caring, knowledgeable and professional caregiver for their loved one.
