About Jane

Hello, I have been working in the human services field for the past five years. I have gone back to college and since have completed my drug & alcohol counseling certificate and have also completed the certified nursing and home health aide certificate. My education is that of just completing my Associates degree in human services and I am continuing in psychology and counseling for my bachelors degree. During these years I have raised two children with one just graduating college and one more who will be a junior in the fall. My work experience is in counseling and as a senior care home care provider as well as a nursing assistant at a long term care nursing facility. My work is very important to me for I enjoy caring for our elderly and creating the ability for them to live to the best of their ability.

I have had the privilege of being a home care companion for the past 8 years. Helping and caring for others is a satisfying and enjoyable occupation for me. I am quiet, easy-going and attentive. I prefer companionship but can complete light housekeeping and other tasks of daily living. As a certified integrative health coach, my professional stance is that of holistic personal care that encompasses physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing of my patient-clients. Am experienced with dementia and Alzheimer's, cancer and Parkinson's, as well as Lyme disease and blindness.
