Melanie McMillion has found meaning in her decades working as a hospice counselor and community educator. Melanie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and has worn a lot of hats as a hospice worker. She worked as the Director of Psychosocial Services, leading a 45-person interdisciplinary team of social workers, counselors, and spiritual care counselors to coordinate psychosocial, spiritual, and bereavement services.  As a hospice worker, she was an advocate for her team.  Educating her community became Melanie’s focus later in her career.  Her work in hospice gave Melanie an understanding of how compassion fatigue affects each member of the team.  The unique structure of a hospice team enables each member to support the others to combat the effects of compassion fatigue.  Melanie has found meaning in the decades she has spent working in hospice care.   Find all the services and products Odonata Care offers at thecareplan.net.
