Meet the Coordinator
Melissa Hudson
Melissa has worked in healthcare for many years and has a great passion
for helping others. She feels very blessed to be the new Coordinator of
the PCSH and enjoys being a part of offering encouragement, support and
education to cancer patients and their families.
Melissa has experienced losing a grandfather to cancer but has also had
many loved ones diagnosed with cancer survive. She knows firsthand that
there is so much hope to be had with a cancer diagnosis and many moments
to celebrate along the way.
Melissa moved to the Twin Lakes Area in 2004 and resides in Gassville with
her husband, Christian, and son, Tristan. She enjoys spending time with
her family and takes pride in being a mom. She enjoys canoeing, scenic
country drives and hikes as well as church activities and Bible studies.
Melissa is passionate about promoting the services offered at PCSH and
making those newly diagnosed with cancer aware that they can come there
for support and information. She can be contacted by calling the PCSH
at (870) 508-CARE (2273) or via email at
