About Melita

I became a caregiver because I always like taking care of people. I told my grandma before she passed always that I will become a caregiver/Medical Assistant when I grow up. in 2004 I became a CNA. And in 2009 I went back to school and became a Medical Assistant. my grandma will very proud of me. My personal achievement is doing what I said I would and becoming the best caregiver I could be. Well I have been married to a wonderful guy for 22yrs and I have 7 young men all boys. and 2 of them gave me 7 beautiful grandchildren 3 girls and 4 boys. I love what I do and become. if my granny can see me now:)

    I have always felt caring for others is what i was put here to do. I have been taking of others my whole life. Its very heartwarming to know that i can make a difference in someones life. I love being a caregiver and helping others, there is nothing more rewarding. I started because my mother was ill when i was little, my grandma died from MS and I quit my office desk job to become a PCA for my uncle for 4 years, then became a CNA, now im a TMA. I recently completed a Medical Assistant program and now pursuing my EMT.

    I am a newly retired RN after 19 years of cardiac care, urgent care and pre and post op surgical care. I am not ready to completely retire from care giving. I came to this profession later in life, after raising a family and I truly found my career. Making a difference and providing care and help with daily activities, is a skill in which I am competent and find vital to improving people's lives, especially in ones own home. Besides providing help and care, I bring high energy and a positive attitude to my work. That served me well in achieving a BSN,RN degree in my late forties.
