I am a Gerontologist with 22 years of experience specializing in the care of older adults and their families. My career began with individuals with dementia, I now focus on managing complex chronic conditions by creating and executing personalized care plans. I collaborate closely with families and medical professionals to ensure comprehensive care. I hold a Bachelor's in Healthcare Administration and a Master's in Gerontology, with research focused on the psychological and biological factors influencing health throughout the lifespan. My approach emphasizes healthy coping mechanisms and resilience, partnering with families to navigate the challenges of aging. Certified as an end-of-life doula, I also provide emotional, spiritual, and practical support to patients and families during end-of-life care, ensuring comfort, dignity, and peace. I am dedicated to empowering families through informed decision-making and compassionate guidance at all stages of aging.

I’d hire Melody again for any of my family members. Down to earth. You feel as if you’re the most important person in her life when she cares for your family. Couldn’t ask for better services.
