About Jessica

Hi my name is Jessica. For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a nurse. I left the hospital setting and began working as a private nurse/caregiver last year after being diagnosed with a serious medical condition requiring treatment & frequent visits to health care providers. I have 18yrs of nursing experience, caring for patients in the hospital and the in-home setting. I'm proficient in caring for a wide variety of patients, ranging from those with minor injuries and/or illnesses to those in critical care. Because of my diverse experience, I'm confident that I'll exceed your expectations with every task that I'm given. I'm dedicated to helping others, & passionate about what I do. I'm flexible & willing to adjust my schedule according to your needs, even with short notice. One of my greatest strengths is the ability to provide exceptional physical & emotional support to my patients & their families. I'd love the opportunity to provide the same to you!
