About Melia
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I go by Rose. I'm 58, a retired nurse (in Texas for 23 years). I worked adult, pedi and hospice in clinics, hospitals and homes. I finished my career in the insurance industry so I am able to support with advocacy and navigating the system. I left due to moral injury due to inability to actually provide care. I have been doing mostly live-in dementia/hospice care for 2 years along with some short term surgical recovery live-in care positions. I'm also a writer and artist. I am a good cook and plate for presentation. I'd describe my personality as calm, creative and responsible with a sense of humor. I am a non-smoker with dependable transportation, a 1990 Honda accord in mint condition and less than 50, 000 miles. I am vaccine injured and cannot be vaccinated. I have not gotten Covid.
Most recent review
Rose is a very compassionate and caring person who has the ability to create a bond with my mom. She understands how to manage variations in behavior and stays positive in stressful situations. Wish she could have stayed with my mom but she moved so that’s only reason she isn’t still with my mom!
