Dear Friends of At Home Solutions by Saint Therese:

 

One requirement of our field staff is that they send us a summary of each visit so we, in the office, know what is going on at our client's homes in more detail. I read each CVR (client visit report) that they send in and although it can be a bit daunting to keep up with them it's very enlightening to read how our clients are doing and if there are any immediate concerns that we need to be on top of.  

 

We now have 55 staff in the field who do amazing work with our families - overseen by our exemplary office team of nurses, operations manager and scheduler. Hard work every day and dedication to not only our families but each other is crucial to pulling us all together. What an amazing group of people. I can't thank them enough for their commitment to Saint Therese.

 

On a side note, this will be my last column contribution to our e-newsletter. I feel it's time that we highlight more events at Saint Therese as a whole and the exciting things happening within our organization. Keeping you connected and updated about Saint Therese's outstanding work with our families, residents and staff will be our priority.

 

For your peace of mind and comfort, it is possible to stay safe, secure and independent with compassionate caregivers and home health care services. Thank you for continuing to refer us to your loved ones, clients, neighbors or friends who needed a caregiver.

 

Please continue to keep us in mind and contact me personally if I can be of any assistance to you or a loved one.

 

In Gratitude, 

 

 

Kristin Kopp

Hi, I'm Jada C. I have been with At Home Solutions by Saint Therese since August 2011 and love having the opportunity to help individuals in the comfort of their homes. I enjoy working here with the wonderful clients and staff, and am happy to be part of home health care!

 

 I graduated from the University of Minnesota- Twin Cities in May 2012 with a B.S. in Kinesiology. I plan on going to either grad school or into a nursing program next fall. I have wanted to do something in the health field since I was young and have always had an interest in nursing. Having this job helped me finally decide to try to go for nursing, so I'm now in the process of applying to schools.

 

I enjoy helping and working with people and have volunteered at many organizations; my favorite ones being the Ronald McDonald House, Region's Hospital, and the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Other things I enjoy are biking, sports, being outdoors, traveling, and going out and trying different kinds of food!

 

Welcome our new staff!
