About Melissa

I am a compassionate and loving person. I understand that as our elderly age it is hard for them to do everyday activities. The need for social interaction is so important for our elderly. The best part of my work day is sitting with my residents and hearing their stories.

I been doing home health for multiple years because I like helping people and also learning things from the people I take care of. What makes me a good caregiver is my ability to go above and beyond the normal to brighten someone's day and to know that there are people that need and appreciate my help.You have to have patience and a caring attitude some cases are harder than others but in the end its about helping people stay somewhat independent and the need for loving dedicated caregivers are on the rise.
