About Jessica

Growing up with my grandparents I learned to care for the elderly. Once my grandparents got older I ended up caring for them until they passed. I'd cook, clean, medication reminders, help them walk, help them in the tub, help them get dressed and do grocery shopping. I enjoyed doing it and being there for them. Eventually after they passed I ended up moving to gloversville to care for my father who is legally blind. I'd do his grocery shopping, clothing shopping, cook, clean house and laundry. I did this until he was able to get a in home nurse to come in every day. Then, I ended up getting a job through Fulton Center to be able work with the elderly and be there for them as some families don't see there loved ones once in nursing home so, with working In that setting it brings joy to some of the residents to have that time with someone even of they believe your they're family seeing them. Being a caregiver is rewarding to see the smiles on others faces that you bring to them and knowing that they know you care about them.

I became a caregiver at 15/16. My entire family works in the healthcare field. I'm a very kind and hard driving person. My grandmother and grandfather both passing in the same year is what drove me to become a caregiver. My achievement right now is going to school to become an lpn. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is learning new things and being able to learn about my residents pasts.
