Jennifer’s Bio

Greetings, my name is Jennifer and I've been actively working in the senior care field for about 12 years now . I've worked with agencies, family members, Disabled American Veterans (DAV), Private in-home, and Hospice. I'm skilled in a variety of areas ADL, proper procedure, and how to use the equipment that's provided. I also have training certificates in CPR/AED, First Aid, Certified Professional Caregiver. I also hold some behavioral certificates in the classes that I completed two years ago which would be (CBT) known as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. (DBT) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I also like to work with my client doing art therapy projects. I'm a very creative natured person and like to use multiple outlets to help them better express their emotions in a artistic positive manner and it also helps to improve their motor functions and their memory I've noticed in Dementia and Parkinson's clients. People would most give me reviews as being kind, respectful, honest and capable, and trustworthy.
