Mel is a superb caregiver. We hired her as an overnight caregiver for my husband who is going blind and has other major health issues. She is calm, well-informed, responsible and quick to respond when a need arises, always knowing the right thing to do. She is also very personable and is authentically interested in having the person under her care be well taken care of. We let her go because we no longer need night care, and she was very happy that my husband was feeling better, well enough to not need her. I totally recommend Mel, without reservation.
