About Melissa

The personalities trait that helps be a great caregiver are Patience. When dealing with the elderly, Dependability When the wellbeing of an elderly individual depends on my presence, and Trustworthiness. What I enjoy being caregiver is that I am a caregiver by nature, and could not think of a better way to give than working as a caregiver. And knowing that I Provide Support for Those Who Need It Most. I was recently looking after a disabled patient, whom the doctors had said did not have many chances to walk. However, through consistent therapy and encouragement, I made sure that he started walking within 8 months, despite the doctors believing otherwise.
