Personalized Nursing, Rooted in Care

Individualized medical support, built on trust

Every person deserves thoughtful, professional care — especially during recovery, transition, or moments of uncertainty. After years in hospital and home settings, Melissa saw how much healing can happen when care is consistent, skilled, and genuinely centered on the patient. That’s why she created Worthy Care: to offer private duty nursing that brings clinical excellence and heartfelt presence into the home. Whether it’s post-operative support, chronic condition management, or caregiver relief, Melissa brings calm, capable guidance to every visit.

A Mission Born from Experience

Professional excellence with a deeply personal touch

Melissa founded Worthy Care after returning to her hometown of Pittsburgh, inspired to offer a more personal and empowering approach to healing. She understands the value of trust, especially during times of healing or transition. That’s why every visit is grounded in clinical excellence, genuine presence, and a deep commitment to your well-being. Whether supporting recovery after surgery, managing chronic conditions, or offering relief to families caring for loved ones, Melissa provides steady, compassionate guidance in the community she calls home.

Worthy Questions ~ Guidance for Navigating Care, Costs, and What to Expect with Private Duty Nursing.

What is private duty nursing, and how is it different from home health or other care services?

Private duty nursing is one-on-one, professional nursing care provided in your home. It’s flexible, client-directed, and can include both clinical services and wellness support — tailored to your needs.

Who can benefit from your services?

Adults of all ages — not just seniors — including those recovering from surgery, managing chronic conditions, seeking wellness guidance, or needing temporary nursing care at home.

Do you accept insurance?

At this time, Worthy Care is a private-pay service. This allows us to offer more personalized care without the constraints of insurance billing. We’re happy to provide invoices you can submit to an HSA/FSA or for out-of-network reimbursement.

What areas do you serve?

Melissa primarily serves the Greater Pittsburgh area, and specifically North Park, Wexford, Franklin Park, Bradford Woods, Mars, Cranberry Township, Cranberry, Marshall Township, Ross Park, Zelianople, Butler County, Gibsonia, and Treesdale. If you’re unsure whether your location is included, just reach out!

Can you help me understand my options or coordinate with other providers?

Absolutely. Melissa is an experienced patient advocate and can help you or your family navigate healthcare decisions, coordinate care, and communicate with your medical team.

To do this, she may need your verbal or written consent to speak with doctors, specialists, or family members involved in your care. This ensures compliance with HIPAA, which protects your private health information. Melissa will always explain what’s needed and request your permission before sharing any details. Your privacy, trust, and comfort are top priorities.
