About Merissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I'd describe my personality as fun caring kind. I like caring for seniors because I fell in to this line of work and loved it ever since. I get along with all types of personalities I had a grandmother that I cared for And think elderly people are deserving and worth time and effort. Some are more work they all deserve care. I'm looking for a job that can be once in a while or a schedule. I can work for more then one family. I started caring for seniors when I was 35. 15 years ago. At an elder care agency. I've worked at local nursing homes and private. In my spare time, I like to be around my son. One thing you should know about me is I'm very patient with elderly. I can go along with them and calm them when they need it and be talkative to them. And with them. My skills include bathing dressing toiletries cooking cleaning just being with a client talking groceries and drs. I drive if needed. and have meds experience. I like to do light physical exercise and keep energy up.

Merissa is a kind, hardworking person who brings great positive energy to the job. She helped me for 1- 1/2 years caring for a member of my family. She was always looking for more ways to be helpful. She is also great with children. Hire her!
