Dementia Care Support
RN-led help for dementia families

Clear paths.
Fewer emergencies.

You don't need to "try harder." You need a workable map and a supportive team. We cut through the complexity of dementia care to give you actionable steps, not more homework.

  • Safety assessments and medication oversight
  • Caregiver training and boundary setting
  • Hospital-to-home transitions

Boundaries are part of good care.

Protecting you protects them.

I'll help you set limits that keep everyone safer and more stable. Caregiving without boundaries leads to burnout. Sustainable care requires sustainable caregivers.

Jessica Kowal

My experience spans hospital/facility-to-home transitions, moves from home into assisted living or skilled nursing, caregiver training, long-term care management, hospice care and medication oversight.

My approach is family-centered and practical: I listen first, then help you choose realistic next steps and advocate for your aging loved one with clear, honest guidance.

"I can only hope that if I make it to extreme old age, I receive the kind of care that Jessica provides. If I could give her 100 stars, I would!"

Common Questions

Do you take insurance? How does payment work?

Most RN consulting and care management is private pay, and I'm no exception. Some families use HSA/FSA funds or submit receipts to long-term care insurance if their policy allows it. We'll talk through pricing, what you actually need, and whether I'm the right fit during a brief free call—no pressure, just clarity.

How do I know if it's time to reach out for help?

If you're repeating the same crisis (falls, hospital visits, meds confusion, wandering, sleepless nights) or family arguments are getting worse, it's time. I'm most useful when you're thinking, "Something has to change, but I don't know what's realistic anymore." You don't have to wait for a disaster—earlier is better, and we can start with one focused session.

What exactly do you do as a geriatric care consultant and RN?

I'm a geriatric care consultant who is also a Registered Nurse. I sit down with you, listen to the full story, and turn it into a workable plan. That usually means: reviewing safety, symptoms, and medications; explaining what's really going on in clear, everyday language; mapping out realistic options (staying home, adding support, or moving to assisted living or skilled nursing); helping you communicate with doctors, agencies, and the rest of the family. I don't replace your doctor or home care team—I help you connect the dots, see a few steps ahead, and stop managing all of this alone in your head.
