About V Melva

Experience: 10 yrs

I started working as a nursing aide. I worked for 3 years then working at Provena hospital in Waukegan at medical surgical department as a patient care technician for 8 year. After that I work as a private caregiver since then. I took care of patients who have dementia, stroke, Parkinson's disease, lung cancer, diabetes and CHF. I have experience catheter and colostomy care, tube feeding, and transferring. Other than that, I do bed bath/shower, toileting, meal preparation, medication management/reminder, turning and changing diaper for bed bound patients and checking for vital signs. I'm new to care. com and I don't have any reviews yet but I can give you my work references.

Hire Melva! She's an energetic and caring woman who will care for your family the right way, like her own. She is easy to communicate with, always arrives on time (in fact early) , and always does or suggests more than you ask for. We are so grateful to have found her.
