About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello My name is Melissa. I've been a caregiver in one way or another most of my life. I'm an energetic, funny, smart and loyal person friends and family know they can turn to. I currently have 3 days available for new clients. I'm a retired Navy Veteran (Environmental Health Officer) and prior Navy Corpsman (medic) and EMT with extensive experience in providing care. I can help families with at home care, wound care, appointments, medication schedule's and prompting. I have experienced with Hoyer lifts, wheelchair equipped vehicles, mobility support, safety assessments and dementia/Alzheimer's. Let me know how I can help make your life just a little bit easier. I'm also an animal lover. * If you only need a backup caregiver feel free to reach out. I look forward to hearing from you!
