Add to FavoritesAbout Melanie
I have been working with clients of diverse conditions for the past 5 years. Most of my clients are the elderly with varying degrees of mental decline and medical issues. I have the necessary medical background to do non-invasive procedures and give excellent, standard care. Being a caregiver gives me fulfillment of being able to contribute to the quality of life one deserves either in that stage when one is in ill or elderly. Part of my caregiving is also meaningful companionship; such that it is more enjoyable for both parties. When you make an impact in the life of your client and his/her family in terms of making them understand the dynamics of the illness and its corresponding effects, it creates a bridge in the gap of the fear of the unknown. These are just the tip of the iceberg so to speak, Caring is part of me and my culture. It is a part of life.
