Elderlink
Home Care, Inc. would like to shine the spotlight on a remarkable husband and wife duo as Caregivers of the Month for January, Doug and Jacqueline A.! Their combined 33 years of caregiving experience have left a lasting impact on both the clients they have served and our Elderlink community.
Doug first began with Elderlink in 2006 and was drawn to this profession because he wanted to make a meaningful difference in the world. He has enjoyed caring for his many clients and being there for them when they’ve needed it most. In Doug’s free time, he enjoys listening to many different types of music with his favorite genres being Classical and Honky-tonk. He gave a special shoutout to his favorite composer, Hans von Koessler.
Jacqueline first began with Elderlink in 2010 and establishing genuine connections with her clients is at the heart of her approach. She takes the time to learn about their likes and dislikes, ensuring that she can contribute to their happiness and comfort. One of Jacqueline’s fondest memories as a caregiver involved taking a client to witness the beauty of nature – a breathtaking view of trees that left an lasting mark on both her and the client. Jacqueline also finds a lot of joy preparing meals tailored to a client’s dietary needs, utilizing her skills as a dietitian and her love for nutritional therapy.
Beyond the caregiving realm, Doug and Jacqueline wear the hats of devoted parents. Their weekends are spent cheering on their kids at basketball and volleyball games. As a family, they also share a love for the great outdoors, with hiking adventures bringing them closer together.
Doug and Jacqueline exemplify the qualities that make Elderlink truly exceptional. We appreciate their dedication, compassion, and their ability to create meaningful moments for the client’s lives that they touch. We extend our gratitude to Doug and Jacqueline for their outstanding contributions. Congratulations!
