About Jennifer

I believe that in this line of work, you need to have a strong passion for helping the individuals that you serve. Without having that passion, you will have a very hard time being successful. Over the past 7 years, I have put all of my time into serving others. I have worked direct care throughout, moving up the chain of command. Now that I am near the top of the hierarchy, I feel that I have lost a sense of why I even started working in this field to begin with, getting caught up with the day to day management duties. I began working in healthcare because of my drive to help. Having a child has only fueled my drive to a max. I have chosen to step down from my upper management position to return to the core of why I began this journey to begin with. I can say with ease, I too have that passion.

Being a caregiver is an extremely rewarding job. I have a passion for helping others and putting a smile on other's faces, and being a caregiver allows me to do both of these things. I am going to school to become a recreational therapist and will work with people with disabilities, older adults, and a wide range of people in that field. I believe it is important for older adults to have someone to interact with during the day to improve their mental health.
