About Melissa

Hello, my name is Melissa Barnes. I have been providing direct care services for over 20 years. I provide the best care possible by treating clients as thought they are part of my family. I am CPR and First Aide certified, also familiar with administering medication. I enjoy getting out of the house and showing my clients different things to do such as going to the movies and going to the park. I have a great sense of humor and try to keep a positive outlook on life. I hope to have the opportunity to meet and care for your family member.

DEDICATED, CALM, AND LOVING I have been caring professionally for seniors for five years and make a commitment each day to meeting my clients with respect, understanding and a good measure of laughter. I am a life long learner and am always seeking to expand my knowledge of how to provide my clients with the very best care. I tailor my services to the changing and unique needs of each individual. My clients know that I care. I take great delight in the relationships that evolve from the giving and receiving inherent in this work. I would love to hear more about your care needs and answer any questions you may have for me. At your request, I will provide my resume and other pertinent certifications. I have excellent references, both professional and personal. With warm regards, Kathleen
