About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Supporting the independence and well-being of seniors is my true passion. With over 25 years of professional experience, I provide compassionate, patient care tailored to your loved one's unique needs. I am skilled in dementia support, medical and medication management, and mobility assistance, and I excel at de-escalating stressful situations with a calm, empathetic approach. Whether I am helping with personal care, meal preparation, or light housekeeping, my focus remains on earning your trust through reliable, high-quality support. I maintain clear communication with your family through daily written reports. I hold CPR training and First Aid certifications to ensure safety at all times. My goal is to make a positive, lasting impact on the daily lives of those I serve. It is a privilege to be a steady, friendly presence in your loved one's life as we navigate their journey together. I recently moved back to NY from living in Suffolk Virginia. I hold a Rma and Cna license.
