About Merlina

Experience: 5 yrs

My calling to support the well-being and independence of adults and seniors stems from a genuine passion. Previous positive experiences in care roles further solidified my desire to make a positive impact on their lives. As a compassionate and approachable professional, I bring five years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant and Certified Home Health Aid. I provide respite care, live-in care, transportation, and assistance with errands, light housekeeping, meal preparation, medical management, and mobility. I'm skilled at de-escalating stressful situations, handling confusion, and incorporating memory care activities. I prioritize understanding each person's preferences and history to build a strong connection. I communicate with families using their preferred method, providing regular updates. I also have CPR Training and First Aid Training.
