About Melita
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have extensive experience and knowledge (15+ years) with Alzheimer's, Lewy-Body dementia, stroke, cancer, Parkinson's Disease and hospice clients, including: medication management (including Macy catheter), meal preparation (including pureed and thickened liquids), feeding, transporting, personal care (bathing, toileting etc.) and end-of- life care. I am trustworthy, reliable and caring. I have references available upon request. I treat my clients with the dignity and respect we all deserve, be it long-term care or end of life care, QUALITY of life is my utmost priority. I am a non-smoker who loves pets of all kinds. I carry my own worker's comp and liability insurance so your family doesn't have the added worry.

I would echo everything written in the reviews about Melita and more. She has been an invaluable part of the evolving care team for my mom. Her knowledge, behavioral analysis, and experience, as well as calm demeanor and insight regarding hospice, medication, and the health care system have been extremely helpful. Her experience in this industry is unlike others we’ve experienced. She continues to be a valuable resource &!friend. We hope she’s again with us when end of life care is needed.
