Meet Melissa

While working at a physiotherapy clinic, I recognized a gap in care for older patients. Too often, I saw them being discharged early, left to fend for themselves at home at a time when they still needed professional support. Because I have always loved working with older adults (ever since my first volunteer position at a local retirement community), I realized this was an opportunity to help an often over-looked demographic.

From this, HomeStretch was born. I now have a team of experienced, caring Kinesiologists servicing seniors all around Vancouver.
