September CAREGiver of the Month

Melinda has been with us for about a year now. She is a wonderful, patient and flexible caregiver who is always ready to take on new clients. Melinda loves cooking for her clients which makes them very happy.

When asked why she decided to become a CARE Giver she said that she felt she could serve the community and contribute to the well-being of the many seniors and that working with them gives her a great sense of satisfaction and a very rewarding feeling.

What she loves most about being with her clients are the great conversations that she has with each and every one of them.

The advice Melinda would give to new CAREGivers is that no matter what the situation, create a happy surrounding, make sure that no one feels left out, and to treat everyone with dignity and respect.

When Melinda is not working with her clients she likes to spend time with her husband. They like traveling, camping, fishing, and playing golf. She also volunteers a local senior centre. Way to go, Melinda!!

Melinda, thanks for all that you do for Home Instead Senior Care and your clients.

Senior Volunteers

For a vast majority of seniors who volunteer, their community service helps define who they are. According to research conducted for the Home Instead Senior Care® network, nearly 100 percent of North American senior volunteers say that, when compared to other things they do in their lives, volunteering is important. One in five senior volunteers says it is the most important thing they do.
