About Melba

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! my name is Melba I am 32 years old. I have more than 8 years in experience working with seniors. This year 2016 I received my certification as Home Health Aide. I want to continue in this path by preparing myself in this geriatric area. I took care of seniors with different conditions like Dementia, Alzheimer, Glaucoma, Diabetics, High blood pressure, Bedridden etc. I always do my best to help them... specially those ones who suffer for some types of Dementia. I have experience and knowledge with Dementia/Alzheimer's plus I took a Dementia Training this year to understanding the disease, enhancing communication, creating meaningful activities, home safety and managing challenging behaviors. I would love to assist your loved one with their ADLs and recreational activities as well. I'm passionate in all I do and I found my vocation in life. I'm a loyal, honest, reliable, responsible, hardworking, kindhearted, patient, clean, respectful and a caring person. I speak Spanish too.

Melba is very helpful and also stays on top of things in terms of care. She is great with medication, meal preparation , laundry and light cleaning. She is still actually working for me and my mother and has been with us for approximately a month.
