About Jeannean

I believe I was always a caregiver, it started with my children. My father got sick in 1999, I took care of him for a year before he passed. I'm a nurturing person at heart and enjoy helping others. My personal achievement are the families I have come across and remain friends with after caring for their love ones. I have worked with seniors with Alzheimer's and Dementia for 14 years. I started as a caregiver worked my way up to a Lead care manager, to medication manager then supervisor of the Dementia unit from 2003 to 2014. My husband was diagnosed with bone cancer I left work to care for him until his passing in Dec. 2014. I'm self motivated person good with details, very observant, loyal and trustworthy.
