About Jennifer
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello, my name is Jenny, and I'm a dedicated Registered Nurse with over 22 years of experience, motivated by faith in Jesus to lead and heal with mercy and love. I am a wife & mother, & truly enjoy hiking and reconnecting with God in nature any chance I get. I began my career as an Army Nurse during Operation Iraqi Freedom, instilling leadership and discipline; as well as a diverse nursing career which includes, Internal Medicine/Surgery, OB/GYN, Corrections, Community Health, Hospice, & Skilled Nursing Facility Manager. Interests include wound care, daily activities of daily living assistance, standard medical procedures, medication management, and focusing on holistic nursing that addresses both body and soul for optimal healing. Bringing both professional expertise and the unique perspective of having cared for a family member, I am ready to provide compassionate, soul-centered care to local families.
Most recent review
I hired Jenny to provide in home care for my Mother who was recovering from surgery after a serious fall. Jenny’s nursing expertise, outstanding communication skills and extremely high level of empathy was truly impressive. She is mature, dynamic and kind. Jenny showed up to work energetic and ready to take on whatever task needed tending to. She was able to connect with my Mom in a meaningful way and made our entire family feel supported through a difficult time. Jenny was able to anticipate my Mother’s needs and assist in all aspects of her healing and rehabilitation. She was also reliable and flexible when it was time to transition out of care. Jenny is truly a special person who has found her calling. I would not hesitate to recommend Jenny and would gladly hire her again.
