About Melissa

I am a mother of 3 children ages 12yrs, 11yrs, & 1 1/2yrs old. Nursing has always been my passion! I am very passionate in the care I give my patients, I'm very thorough in the care I give each client/ patient I have ever cared for my entire nursing career. I have worked in various fields of health care for 13 years such as MRDD, Alzheimer's, Dementia, Parkinson's, med surg & oncology, trach & wound patients, home health clients, diabetics, sickle cell, and HIV & AIDS patients, I really enjoy what I do with the compassion and care I give others. I graduated with my Licensed Practical Nursing degree, which currently I am waiting to pass my Ohio Licensure Boards. I am also certified in first aid/cpr and a State Tested Nursing Assistant. I am able to pass a background check if needed & pass a drug testing examination if needed. I have my own reliable Transportation which is a 2011 Dodge Durango with full coverage insurance through State Farm. Communication has always been key for me with family that way all family members involved with their loved ones care are all on the same board with the care I am giving their family member. You will not be disappointed with the care I give. Thank you
