Mel cared for my wife throughout the last of her life with ALS. It's difficult to put in words how much of a gift Mel has for Caregiving, she became part of our family. She is highly experienced in every aspect of Caregiving I can think of- capably doing Wheelchair transfers, operating a Hoyer Lift, managed feedings, medication, Showering, Toilet etc., etc.... She is a talented Leader having helped us search for, screen and hire new caregivers, assisted with scheduling and payroll. Without question Mel has a gift of Compassionate Caregiving and deserves the highest recommendation I can give. Mel brought love into our home and received it in return.
