About Melanie

After caring for my terminally ill father in my home years ago, I began helping my friends in similar situations with their loved ones. Finding this work very rewarding and having to join the work force it seemed a natural avenue for me. In the past 10+ years I've met so many incredible people and made lasting friendships with both clients and their families. When you truly love what you do, it becomes more than just a "job". Having family in the medical field, I've also worked hospice cases and with Alzheimer's patients. Excellent references upon request.

    I am a great caregiver because I love the fact of being able to help those in need, I have patience. Also I have my medical assistant certificate so I can also be their nurse, and I am CPR, CPI, OSHA and HIPPA certified.
