About Melanie

I have worked in places from the ER, to the hospitals, nursing homes and in people's homes. I believe your loved one has the right to live the best life they can even when they are not feeling their best, battling a sickness or are elderly. It's not my job to be their boss as I work for them. I enjoy seeing them still do whatever they can to live the best life they can. I love helping people it gives me a sense of joy and warms my soul. It makes me a better person, it has taught me patience and to enjoy every moment of everyday even when it's not the greatest of days. I am proud of the mom I am. My children have the same compassionate spirit as me and enjoy helping people. I truly love what I do and the community of people that I have the pleasure to share my time with.

Hello My Name Is Brittney, I Have Always Loved Being A Caregiver. What Always Helped Me Be A Great Caregiver Was Showing Both Empathy And Compassion. Showing The Person That I Care About Them And Want To Do Whatever I Can To Help. What I Enjoy Most About Caregiving Is Spending Time And Getting To Know The People I'm Helping, And Being Able To Just Help Somebody The Best Way That I Can. What Attracted Me To Being A Caregiver Was My Grandmother, I Was Very Close With Her Before She Passed Away. I Would Always Help Her The Best I Could And I Wanted To Be Able To Do That For Others. https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1rLMjuC74lm9Qj6GGZj6H2B9v81s_lgUWDicjUUKtCwQ/mobilebasic
