About Melissa

Hi I've been an LVN for 25 years and in nursing care for almost 30 I started as a CNA in Oakhurst because I wanted to work with the elderly and I've always had a love and a calling to help people. I am fun in a laid-back person so I feel that I will make anyone that I work with Feel comfortable safe and we'll cared for! FYI : the state of California requires that I have a background check and fingerprinting as part of my Lvn license ;)

Caregiving jobs can be extremely rewarding for the right type of person. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. like older adults I can get along well with a variety of elders and family members. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I like making them smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. I take pride in my attention to details.

X My mother was an R.N. And came home with wonderful stories of the people she cared for. She told me that everyone deserves great and Compassionate Care. I have come to know that there are some people who are naturally compassionate and nurturing. I think it runs in families DNA. My family is one such family. I have always loved listening to older people since I was a child. I derive so much knowledge of life from these people.Nothing feeds my soul and makes me happier than to be able to give compassion and caring help and give a better quality of life to people in need of care. They all have their own stories and so much wisdom is gained from just listening. In turn this gives the patient company and the knowledge that someone cares and is interested in them and that they are valuable and interesting and deserve so much. That's why I became a caregiver If I should be so blessed as to be considered as your caregiver I promise to carefully and compassionately do all that is possible to make life easier for you and your loved one.I have many years of every kind of senior care. From Stroke Heart,Alzheimer's Blindness,Parkinson's ,Diabetes etc.I have many references and a current background report given at interview.Thank you for your consideration.
