About Melissa

Experience: 5 yrs

Making a difference in someone's life is my greatest reward. With over 5 years of experience, I am dedicated to supporting the well-being and independence of adults and seniors. My passion to help peow has provided me with a solid foundation for providing care and compassion for those who need a helping hand. I exercise consideration with residents, exercise preservation of self-dignity, and 'whistle while I work'; always friendly and strive to understand each person's unique preferences, routines, and history. I provide respite care, transportation, personal care, and more. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, & handle confusion with grace. Families are always welcome to reach me by asking for daily reports, texts, or phone calls (following whatever methods work best). As a former EMT & caregiver to my grandparent, my goal to provide comfort and peace of mind to both your loved one and your family. Looking forward to meeting with you & have a blessed day.
