About Jessica

Im upbeat, energetic, silly by nature, understanding and compassionate. I can be a strong leader and motivate others but I tend to do it through a combination of reason meets humour. I love the outdoors and love helping others stay independent. I know what its like to be on the recieving side of care so it really means a lot to me to preserve dignity and be a friend to my clients. I have extensive experience and training, am prompt and dependable. I am a problem solver and athough my demeanor is best described as silly, I am a professional and conduct myself as such. Humour is just a great way to connect and lighten the mood when things are otherwise difficult. I am proud of a great many accomplishments throughout my career, my greatest achievment is my ability to help someone go from being about to be placed into a long term care facility, to being completely able to function on their own without me. A little know how, hard work, time, and TLC can go a long way to restoring independence.

I enjoy taking care of others or just giving them a little extra help or listening to them if they have a problem or something they need to discuss. I have plenty exspirence caring for patients with alzheimers. It all come to the fact that I love to be around people. I know as a professional I shouldn't get too attached to my clients but most of the time I just can't help it. I wrote a poem for a husband and his wife which was read later at her funeral and the family liked it so much that they also had it printed on a quilt. I'm a little silly at times but also know when it's time to be serious and take care of business. It is a privilege to serve others. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.
