About Alyssa

I know I can become a great caregiver because I know how to treat people. I always think of my patients as my own family members, and how I would treat family. I love being around people and talking to them. Meeting new people everyday is something I adore. I am very social and extroverted. Helping people is what I want to do as much as I can for the rest of my life. I always say, "everyone needs help sometimes," because it's true. Nobody should be ashamed to ask for or need help. I want to be the person that someone can trust with their loved one. One achievement I'm proud of is earning the title of all-conference during my senior season of varsity badminton.

Hello, my name is Melba! My experience with caregiving started the year of 2010. I started caring seniors to make a difference in their lives. For people with high levels of care needed, my support in invaluable. Treating them with attentive, proper, and respectful care is a significant role to ensure they retain their dignity and independence during the latter stages of life. For me, helping seniors and others is a great accomplishment and feels highly rewarding, knowing that I could turn a unbearable day into a great one. Caregiving taught me knowledge from listening to experiences and stories one might gladly share. Memories are priceless and can give a wonderful insight and transport you to a time from a person's different perspective. To me, having that kind of opportunity gives life more meaning. As we can connect with an individual in such a way, we also learn to appreciate and be more empathetic towards others. And to be an encouraging helping hand when someone needs it the most!
