About Melanie

Caring for the elderly with compassion and respect is second nature. Sixteen grandchildren of which I am a part of took care of our 98 year old grandmother since I was a little girl. Through those years, a deep sense of commitment to provide dignified care was developed among us in the family. My guiding principle in providing care is that it will same quality of care I would give my loved ones. Everyday, a smile and sunshine in heart of my client is my only humble goal.

I've been a caregiver for 25 years. I work at the Jerome home for 25 years now . I love doing my job. I take my job seriously. I love to see when there's progress in a patient I love to motivate them to do better for themselves and to try to do as much as they can for themselves. Because I think when you let them do as much as they can for themselves and makes them feel good and that's the purpose of being a good caretaker.
