About Melissa

I have always been compassionate and worked in fields where I was a caregiver of some sort. I have been a nanny for 12 years caring for children and am responsible for caring for my inlaws along with my husband 2 nights a week. I have been in rescue for 8 years working to help dogs in need. I am a nuturing person by nature. I am CPR/FIRST AID certified until 2019 and I am currently in the process of going back to college for nursing.

Caregiver

Jan 2017 - May 2017
Anthony and Diane Roskopf
In Jan of 2017 I left my job and home in Menomonee Falls to care for my 2 elderly in laws. I stayed with them until the end of May in 2017. My mother in law is insulin dependent, wheel chair bound for the most part, incontinent, in kidney failure and is considered a frail diabetic who bruises easily. My father in law is in congestive heart failure, and was unable to care for his wife on his own, so I went with them to AZ to monitor and help where needed. I was primarily responsible for giving my mother in law her insulin, changing her when she had bowel movements, changing her clothes, transferring her from wheel chair, to chair, to vehicle, running errands, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, showering, meds...etc.....
