Registered Nurse
As an RN (Registered Nurse), I am very passionate about working with seniors and have over 15 years’ experience in health care, the medical field and nursing care.

For the past 15 years my husband and I have dedicated our careers to caring and advocating for seniors. Our knowledge and experience have helped many seniors find the right home care environment that met their needs.

We were caring for my mom at our home and needed additional support. Joan carefully assessed my mom’s needs and then continued to adjust to changes, all the while communicating with my mom’s doctor and our family. We are forever grateful for the care and dedication of Joan and her staff. This home welcomed us like family and provided the level of care needed at a very difficult time.Cindy Hough2022-10-09Our mother is getting very good care at First Hope. The ratio of care givers to residents is higher than the two other places we've tried. The staffing has been consistent, unlike most places with constant turn over. Having an RN and a CNA as resident owners has proven to be very beneficial.Silvana Brzac2022-10-09This is a great Adult family home run by an experienced RN.Emma Harris2022-10-08The daughter of my patient found this home after 4 awful experiences at other care facilities and care homes in Olympia, WA. We had come from poorly managed and neglectful situations so finding Joan and her home was like finding an oasis in the desert. Her care team was present, thoughtful and well trained. They were able to handle any needs my patient had and were able to take over care completely within a week of my patients admittance. The care staff to resident ratio was 2 people per resident so my patient was emotionally and physically supported at all times. Joan prepared wonderful home cooked food, engages actively with residents, the care staff collectively is always taking care of residents and helping them feel loved and cared for. The fact that Joan’s family is involved makes the environment so loving as well. She and her family and staff want to share the love they feel with everyone is lives there as well as friends and family. I will be recommending this adult family home to future patients in need of full time care. Services highly recommended.
