About Melissa

Experience: 13 yrs

I had been working as a DSP (direct support professional) with disabled adults and children in their home or a group home setting for the past 13 years. I have experience in all aspects of care due to being a DSP. I have experience working with many different types of physical and mental ailments/disabilities as well. While working for different agency's I had multiple trainings in care and conduct. I also took care of my grandfather the last 7 years of his life. Some examples of my capabilities and experience are, cleaning, cooking, feeding, medication administration, bathing, wound care, PT, OT, using a hoyer lift, providing transportation, shopping, listening etc...
