About Melissa

I am a very caring individual. I have a huge heart and I love being able to help people, especially those in need. Being a caregiver is not just a job to me, I care for my clients and their needs. I take my responsibilities seriously and I am very observant so if something is not right or seems a little out of the ordinary it will not go unnoticed! My mother, grandmother, and aunt were all nurse aides and as a teenager I helped care for my grandparents when they were unable to care for their selves any longer so I have grown up familiar with the care and needs of others. My last job, i spent 2 yrs. And 9 mths. Caring for an elderly man who had a stroke, he had diabetes, sleep apnea, congestive heart failure, etc. So I have a bit of experience with several different conditions. I am dependable and trustworthy and I am also considerate of the well being of my clients family members and willing to help in any way I can to lighten the load and makes things eaisier.

I've been a caregiver for more than 30 years. I care about people and I feel like God has given me a gift. I love to talk so I pretty much can get a patient to try must things that a family member can't get them to to to. I love to read and interact with them if it's just a game cards.
