Caregiver Testimonials

Words from families and clients supported through death and dying

  • "Jill began and facilitates a group for caregivers in her home, This group has been so helpful! The caregivers are encouraged, share their ‘loads’ and have a knowledgeable coach when needed. Jill is welcoming, gracious and full of knowledge that she shares in a measured and kind way. As an end of life caregiver for her mother, I’m extremely grateful for Jill’s help."

    — Cheryl

  • "Jill’s support has been invaluable. As the sole caregiver and the only consistent visitor of my mom, Im aware that my mother needs more variety in her conversations. Jill provides just that. Jill’s feedback to me about her observations has also been helpful as I am not very objective at times."

    — Sue

  • "Jill’s combination of warmth, wisdom, profession and life experience means she moves towards people in any situation rather than withdraw. She also stays very calm, not getting flustered when everyone else is. When my husband was dying, Jill helped shift him in bed to make him more comfortable. He was much less agitated knowing she was there. He trusted her care. Having her there meant my kids and I could focus more on saying goodbye."

    — Sarah

  • "Not only is Jill compassionate and caring when visiting B, but she always makes it a point to let me know how her visits w B went. She is very creative and some of the items she and B made together brighten her room. I couldn’t be happier to have Jill caring for B."

    — Roger

  • "Jill is a 'people person.' She truly enjoys engaging with people from all walks of life and varying interests. Jill is the voice of calm and reassurance in the face of difficulties. I will be forever grateful for her kindness to us all and for ensuring my husbands beautiful and peaceful departure."

    — Marilyn
