About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I have over 20 years of hands-on caregiving experience, including caring for clients with ALS, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, dementia, and complex care needs. I am experienced with manual and electric Hoyer lifts, feeding tubes, wound care, medication setup and reminders, personal care, transfers, cough-assist devices, and noninvasive breathing equipment. I have provided long-term care for individual clients for approximately 9 years, 4 years, and 3 years. I have also managed clients' homes and daily needs when family lived out of town, including appointments, groceries, errands, meals, light housekeeping, and family updates. I am dependable, compassionate, patient, and attentive, and I treat every client with dignity and respect. I am available for both day and night shifts, and excellent references are available upon request.

Melissa cared for my father with Parkinsons for years until he passed. She was an incredible support for my mother and comfort for me and my siblings who did not live nearby. She has years of caregiving experience, is reliable and most importantly, truly cares. Her bubbly but mature personality made her a joy to have around. No reservations about referring her to any family.
