About Jessica
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a conscientious, reliable and experienced PCA. My experience is extensive including home care and work in facilities. I am proficient with assisting in activities of daily life, hoyer lift and pivot transfers, g-tube feeding and many other caregiving tasks. I went to Horizon Health Care Institute in Florida where I received Certified Nurse Assistant training. For 8 years I worked providing care in the home for an ALS patient. And more recently I assisted a man with Parkinson's in his home. This position required me to work under complex circumstances and develop communication skills with a nonverbal person. My experience also includes working with people afflicted with Alzheimer's, MS, injuries and more. I've worked in both home care and nursing facilities. I am confident in my caregiving skills and it comes quite naturally to me. After raising 2 children my future goals include going back to school for a Nursing degree.

Jessica took care of my dad, who had Parkinson's, during the last years of his life. I honestly believe we should all be so blessed to have someone like her to care for us when we get older. She demonstrated abundant patience and compassion to my dad, all while providing needed care and help with all daily living tasks. It was difficult watching my dad struggle so much with basic things, but Jessica always treated him with respect and dignity, as well as genuine kindness. They developed a real friendship and I know my dad truly loved her and trusted her. I am eternally grateful that the time spent with Jessica brightened my dad's days and made his awful disease a little easier to deal with! Sadly, my dad passed away a few weeks ago so we no longer need Jessica's help, but any family would be lucky to have her caring for their loved one. She has truly become a friend to my family and I would hire her again in a second if I could!
