About Jill

I have the ability to turn a difficult patient/situation into a workable and fulfilling experience. I had a wonderful experience while working in a client's home as PCW. This client had a massive stroke, she was paralyzed on her L side. She also exhibited challenging behaviors. My 1st day I sat with her and remained quiet. I told her I was respecting her need for a calm environment and that I wanted her to lead in any conversation. Her family reported to my supervisor that evening that this client was very calm that evening, she ate dinner and went to bed without any challenges. They were extremely pleased with the care I provided. I love being a caregiver. I have come to realize that I thrive best in a 1:1 relationship with clients in their homes. I enjoy providing companionship while assisting with housework, shopping or going to appointments. The best part is in getting to know one another and hearing their stories of their youthful days. I bring compassion and empathy from all of my life experiences to each new encounter. I also will not leave a home if a client is experiencing an emotional or other medical setback. I wouldn't be able to relax if I felt I should've stayed with that person until family or other caregiver could replace me.

I started as a caregiver many years ago. I've always been an achiever and pretty much do anything I put my mind to. I've been in retail, management, business owner, but found my passion as a caregiver. I've taken care of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, stroke patients, congested heart failure patients, etc. My client's become my family and love what I do as a private caregiver. I have references, certificates, and letters of recommendation. It gives me great satisfaction in taking care of new clients in the area and proud of what I do!
