Jen treated my parents like her own family. She has excellent communication skills, vast medical knowledge, years of experience, and a compassionate way with all those in her presence. She was able to help us better understand ways to support our aging parents and yet still provide them with some autonomy. I appreciate her flexibility and positive attitude.

I have worked in hospital acute care setting for greater than 35 years and therefore have a lot of experience and knowledge in nursing and care giving. I love geriatric population as well as mental health community. The hospital environments have gotten very busy and have taken me away from the thing that I am so passionate about and that is interaction and being able to sit down and interact with people.

I am writing on behalf of Kathy who worked in our home as the Caregiver for my father until he passed away 3 weeks short of his 96th birthday. Kathy is reliable and caring, she formed a bond of trust with my Dad and was in tune with his needs. She took the initiative to prepare meals that were nutritious and to his liking, She helped with housework and was very respectful of our space. She did a great job managing his medications, taking him to doctor's appointments and all the care he needed with getting cleaned up and dressed each day. I couldn't recommend anyone more highly and as a physician I was very aware of how well she did her job and how honest and compassionate that she is.
