About Jessica

I am a retired Army wife, and current Army mom. All of my adult life, I have taken care of people in one way shape or form. I took care of my children, other peoples children, my husband, and other soldiers. I became a caregiver outside of my home in 2009 and I fell in love with it. It is such a rewarding feeling knowing that I made someones day just a little bit easier, even if it was just hanging out with them that day and listening to them. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, assisting people with their day to day life, helping someone go out when otherwise they may be home bound. I have been able to teach people with disabilities little things like how to make eggs, or do a load of laundry. It is a very rewarding feeling!

I have worked with mainly elderly patients in ophthalmology for 32 years. I have become very close to to alot of my patients. I became close friends with an elderly neighbor who had no family in this country. I took her to her doctor appointments and was with her when she passed away. I am still very close to some of the patients who I worked with. I have helped with my mother's care when I have visited her in Florida where she lives with my sister. She requires help walking and also showering. She and I love to play cards! I am also a CASA volunteer.
