About Melissa

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'd describe my personality as Reliable, Knowledgeable, and Honest I like caring for seniors because I cared for my own parents for years and know how important it is to help families navigate the sometimes very challenging times associated with elder care. I had an opportunity to join a team of caregivers, caring for a 90-year-old man, who I subsequently became the main caregiver for 5 years until his passing. I have continued to do this work since. That began 8 years ago 2018 In my spare time, I like to spend time with my children. One thing you should know about me is that my only goal is for the person to feel comfortable, respected, and safe. My skills include Companionship, Scheduling and management of appointments and coordination with doctors including management of medications, and cleanliness of both the patient and the home.
