About Jenny

I care deeply about people! I have knowledge of many things one in particular is Althimers and Dementia. There is a medication that goes together and works wonders in slowing down this terrible disease. Aricept and Namenda, this medication works together to slow the process. 3 of my patients have done great on this medication. I am an advocate for this and anyone I can help. I can't stand to see anybody who is sick and needs help.

Self Employed

Taking care of a stroke victim and a Dementia patient. For the Dementia Patient I cooked, cleaned, showered, med delegation, took her to doctor visits and on outings. For the stroke victim I got him up every morning with a sit to stand, putting him in his wheel chair. Off to breakfast meds we're given at breakfast. Then it was either shower day then physical massage and therapy. Everyday was a different activity for Mr. Clint.

I think the fact that I am diabetic and also have experience with taking care of my grandpa who has dementia, helps me to be a great caregiver. Not only that but I have a kind and helping personality which also helps with being a caregiver. The thing that I enjoy the most is helping people in need and also meeting and listening to peoples stores. A great achievement of mine is getting my diabetes in control and being able to manage it by myself

*****CARING*COMPASSIONATE*RESPECTFUL*DEPENDABLE*TRUSTWORTHY***** It is an honor to work with seniors in my community. I grew up taught to respect my elders and in doing so learned that seniors are just young adults in an aging body. I learned about the frustrations and the difficulties of doing things that used to be easy, about the depressing, and sometimes humiliating, fact of having to depend on another for daily living activities. I also learned of the joy of sharing time, stories, humor and life experiences, and the rewards that come from it for both parties. I currently live on a small hobby farm that includes horses, a donkey, chickens, dogs, cats, rabbits and even a turkey. I spend quite a bit of time vegetable and fruit gardening and enjoy a variety of crafts. I am also a volunteer at the local senior center. I am married, with 5 grown children and 6 grandchildren, and am fortunate enough to still have both my parents! My specialties are Cancer Care, Physical Therapy, Rehabilitation, Post-Acute, Memory Care, and Hospice Care. I have an innate ability to anticipate the needs of my client, both emotionally and physically. I am open and approachable, and am able to comfortably converse with my client based on their interests and experiences. I'm known for giving great baths and showers and I'm nurse delegation certified, so I can assist with catheters, insulin, wound care and more. I have a clean, dependable car and insurance. I am willing to transport to appointments, outings and events or just stay home together. If you're looking for a provider with an outgoing, cheerful personality, then we may be the perfect match! grayfairy64@gmail.com
