Experience: 10 yrs
Hi, I'm Jess! I've been a caregiver and STNA since 2004, with nearly 20 years of experience in nursing facilities, memory care units, and private home care. I specialize in dementia and Alzheimer's care, focusing on creating a calm, reassuring environment to help clients feel safe and valued. As memory loss progresses, I adapt to changing needs, whether through engaging activities, looking through photo albums, or simply offering a comforting presence. I also have extensive experience with: -Psychiatric care (6 years on a secure unit) -Colostomy and Foley catheter care (18 years) -Wound care and skin protection -Hoyer lift and sit-to-stand transfers (18 years) -Range of motion exercises and post-surgical assistance I appreciate the personal connections home care allows and am looking for new opportunities to support individuals and families. If you need a dedicated, experienced caregiver, let's connect! References available upon request.
Jessica was the primary caregiver for my mother and has my family’s everlasting gratitude for all that she did to make her comfortable and happy in her last years. She is kind, warm, caring, honest and gives of herself 100%. None of the family lives in Akron, but we all felt confident that our mother/grandmother was receiving superb care when we weren’t in town, and Jess made a point of FaceTiming with all of us when we weren’t there so that my mother didn’t feel isolated from us. As I told Jess, I hope she’s around to care for me when I get to that point. She has our unequivocal endorsement.
