About Melissa

Experience: 4 yrs

As a certified nursing assistant, I have extensive experience providing compassionate and professional care to seniors. My responsibilities included assisting with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, feeding, and ensuring personal hygiene. I was also responsible for monitoring vital signs, administering medications under the supervision of medical staff, and providing mobility assistance to promote independence. My role often involved offering emotional support, building trust with patients and their families, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. Through my work, I developed strong interpersonal skills and the ability to handle both the physical and emotional demands of senior care, ensuring each individual's dignity and well-being.
