About Jessica

My name is Jessica and it is my passion to work with seniors. I was raised by my grandparents and volunteered with my great grandma at the senior center as a child. I think that is what sparked my passion for the senior living industry. I have worked in the senior living/ care giving industry for about 8 years. I have worked in several aspects of senior living, from care giver, concierge, wait staff, activities assistant, and my most recent accomplishment, interim activities director. What I enjoy most about working with seniors being able to help make some ones life a little easier. Whether it is assisting with hygiene needs, or just being a supportive shoulder to cry on. I enjoy making a positive impact on others life's. I also enjoy the impact they leave on my life.

Experience & Education

Interim Activities Director

Dec 2016 - Oct 2017
Oakmont of Fresno
I started working at Oakmont as a care giver in memory care. As a care giver I was responsible for waking the residents up each morning, helping them shower, dress and groom. I also escorted them to meals, often times I would assist with feeding clients who could not fed themselves. I was also responsible to each residents laundry, and the tidiness of their apartments. I was quickly promoted to activities assistant, followed by interim activities director. As the interim activities director I was responsible for creating and organizing all activities, outings, events, arts and crafts, cooking classes, and bible study for the entire assisted living community. I was also responsible for leading daily games such as bingo, cross words and trivia games. It was my responsibility to find out what each resident enjoyed and create a program they found both entertaining and stimulating.
