About Martha

Being a caregiver comes from deep within my heart. I do my very best to make the person who I am caring for comfortable and happy. I became a caregiver because I like helping others. I value the family bonds that are established through caring for others. What I like more about being a caregiver is the family setting where I can assist and care for someone who needs me. A personal achievement is when I graduated from college and being able to choose the career that I want which is being a caregiver.

Hello, my name is Melba! My experience with caregiving started the year of 2010. I started caring seniors to make a difference in their lives. For people with high levels of care needed, my support in invaluable. Treating them with attentive, proper, and respectful care is a significant role to ensure they retain their dignity and independence during the latter stages of life. For me, helping seniors and others is a great accomplishment and feels highly rewarding, knowing that I could turn a unbearable day into a great one. Caregiving taught me knowledge from listening to experiences and stories one might gladly share. Memories are priceless and can give a wonderful insight and transport you to a time from a person's different perspective. To me, having that kind of opportunity gives life more meaning. As we can connect with an individual in such a way, we also learn to appreciate and be more empathetic towards others. And to be an encouraging helping hand when someone needs it the most!
