Add to FavoritesAbout MELISSA ANN
my name is Melissa. I am very caring and outgoing. I have worked with public for many years and been in the medical field for 15. I was attracted to caregiving after taking care of my grandfather, and my great aunt. My grandfather was on hospice and my great aunt used to live with my other grandparents who had passed so I took care of her and took her to all of her appointments. I would have to see the number one thing I love and enjoy most about being a caregiver is letting these people be at home where they want to be and take care of them. I went into the medical field because I care and want patience to have all that they need and home caregiving is definitely where that's at . I guess one of my best personal achievements, but I'm proud of is pushing myself to do in-home caregiving versus being in a fast pace, work environment, which I loved. This job gives me such a great feeling every day to just be able to keep these people comfortable and happy.
