Founder/President




Melissa founded ReliantCare RI from personal experience and thoughtfulness. After providing home care and transportation for her aunt, who lives with dementia and Parkinson’s disease, she witnessed firsthand how difficult it can be for families to find safe, reliable, and understanding transportation for their loved ones. What began as a family responsibility grew into a calling — to make quality care and accessible mobility available to others across Rhode Island. Every ride we provide carries that same sense of kindness, patience, and respect that she wants for her own family.
