Recommendations
Leone H
I am Melissa's mother. I know relatives usually do not give recommendations but due to Melissa being my mother's caregiver, I have first hand knowledge of her abilities in caring for my mother. Approximately seven years ago, when mother was 87 years old, mother became ill and was not improving. The family was concerned mother was not going to improve without assistance. My sister and I live over three hours away and are unable to drop in daily to check on her or provide daily care. The company Melissa had worked for was undergoing bankruptcy and had downsized. Melissa was available to care for mother and moved from FL to begin to assist mother with her recovery.
Melissa keeps a calendar with all appointments - doctor and hair. Melissa takes her to church on Sunday and Thursday mornings as well as her monthly organization meetings, which provides mother with opportunities to maintain fellowship with others.
Melissa maintains an accurate listing of medications, including dose and times.
Mother uses a walker and Melissa folds and places the walker in mother's car and assists her with walking. Mother has arthritis and has pain in her arms and legs and needs the careful assistance Melissa provides.
Melissa does light housekeeping - vacuuming, dusting, washing dishes and clothes. She also does light cooking chores - making sandwiches, heating frozen and canned food. Melissa assists mother with dressing but not with bathing. (Mother likes her privacy.)
My sister has moved closer to mother and is available to provide care for mother at this time. This provides Melissa with the opportunity to seek employment.

I believe Melissa will help anyone to the best of her ability and with a pleasant attitude. She has assisted my mother for the past several years by taking her to doctor's appointments, shopping, church and any place she needs transportation to. She has also assisted her when she would need a hand in dressing. Melissa is trustworthy and I would trust her in my home alone at any time and recommend her for helping with any elderly person.
