About Rick

I am retired but still very healthy and active. I workout on a regular basis. I took care of my dad for a year before he passed away. He had diabetes, heart disease and COPD. I took him to doctors appointments as well as looking after his needs. Being retired and active I still feel I have something to contribute. I enjoy talking with seniors, I think ensuring the end of life quality is important, we should all be afforded that dignity. I have had a full and rich life. I raised a wonderful family, two son who themselves are very successful. I started a very successful business in the mid 1980's, which I sold in 2016. My hobbies include astro-photography, sailing, diving and piano . I also have worked and volunteered for the National Park Service. I have had a background check many times with the federal government. I have been fully vaccinated for Covid with the Moderna vaccine.

Melanie E.

$25.00/hour · Crestview, FL
My name is Melanie, and I am, above all, a wife, mom, daughter to my 92 year-old Momma who lives with us, Gramma, sister, Aunt, etc. Family is important to me; a healthy and happy family. I have always been the nurturer or caregiver in the family, among my peers, in my jobs, with my co-workers and even with strangers that need assistance. My grandparents lived with us when I was little and I started babysitting at 10. Throughout my life I have worked with severely disabled children and adults, developing children's imagination and educating them, created programs for all ages, assisted seniors who needed care in the home and personally lost loved ones to Cancer. I am also familiar with the end of life and/or hospice process. My Momma has short term memory loss and I have taken care of several dementia patients thru end of life. I feel contentment in knowing assistance, time, care and respect I can give to another human makes a positive impact in their life and can give family members a bit of peace knowing their loved one is safe. I try my best to not be a proud person, but I must say one of the best achievements in my life is raising three children to be productive, responsible, respectful and loving adults. My husband, myself and Momma just moved to the Panhandle this last November and I am looking forward to experiencing all the things this area has to offer.
