About Jill

It started around 2004 (while building my own consulting business), as I became the person responsible for the oversight of healthcare and senior living needs (from independent to assisted living, and skilled nursing & hospice) for numerous needs related to aging, cancers, etc., with my parents, and in-laws, simultaneously over the next 10 years. It turned into some additional p/t consulting with families and their elderly loved ones who were lost in a system they didn't understand, and an eventual plan when I retired to continue to help families with their elderly loved ones needs, including private home care/companionship/oversight, etc. I have held medical power-of-attorney for some clients. That all expanded as I was approached also by middle-aged clients battling cancer, and recovering from surgeries, etc. I love what I do.

I have a passion for helping the elderly and ensuring that they are receiving the care that they deserve. As volunteer coordinator for meals on wheels of Southern Lancaster County I was able to volunteer my time to match the volunteers, meal makers and meal delivery personnel with the clients to ensure that meals were delivered on time and within dietary restrictions. I'd like to continue to follow my passion for ensuring elderly care throughout my community by assisting those in need with their daily tasks. Whether food shopping, household chores or doctors appointments.
