A Career Dedicated to Supporting Older Adults, Families, and Individuals with Disabilities.
Melba’s career and volunteer work have been dedicated to supporting older adults, their families and individuals with disabilities-serving as both a clinician, leader and a consistent advocate across settings.
She has worked throughout urban, suburban, and rural communities in the St. Louis metropolitan area, supporting individuals through care decisions, transitions in independence, and the evolving realities of aging and disability.
In addition to her clinical work, Melba has held leadership roles in home health where she collaborated with interdisciplinary teams, trusted professionals, and community organizations to support coordinated, person-centered decision-making and meaningful support for older adults and families.
