Gabriela Santiago, Owner
Nora Jencks, Registered Nurse
I am most passionate about high quality geriatrics care; always aiming to improve health, independence, and quality of life to the seniors in our community. I started in the medical field as a Nurse’s Aide at the age of 16 and graduated from nursing school in 1983! For the first 20 years of my career, I focused on the high-tech world of ICU and dialysis. I then specialized in Home Health and Hospice Support for the past 20 years both in management and direct patient care roles. I train and support our team of professional CAREGivers to provide excellent care, make sure they have the resources they need to be successful and ensure that our clients are safe at home with all their needs met so they can age in place.
Sharon Lee, Human Resources Manager
In August 2015, Sharon started working as a Companion with Home Instead and then was promoted to a Certified Home Health Aide in October 2015. During that time, she was awarded CAREGiver of the Month multiple times for her outstanding performance in home care. In July 2017, Sharon was promoted to Human Resources Coordinator. Her CAREGiver experience combined with her 33-year military career helps her enjoy a position managing the complete CAREGiver Experience from recruiting to retention. Her primary responsibility is to hire compassionate and caring CAREGivers that serve our seniors with integrity. She performs in-depth screening and ensures a robust training program that results in care team members with the perfect heart to work with seniors. Sharon also manages the Home Instead on-going training programs, both in-house and on-line.
Ashley Torres, Recruitment and Engagement Coordinator
Hello, my name is Ashley, a dedicated Recruitment and Engagement Coordinator! My role is key in building a team of compassionate, reliable, and qualified caregivers who reflect our mission of delivering exceptional care to clients and their families. I am passionate about creating the best experience for everyone I interact with, from new applicants to the families we serve, and I value working alongside our entire Home Instead TEAM. Everyone's commitment inspires me daily and reinforces the meaningful work we do. I have been fortunate to build lasting connections and create meaningful memories. As I continue to grow with Home Instead both professionally and personally, I remain committed to making a difference in the lives of others; strengthening my compassion, patience, and reminding me of the importance of spending quality time with my own family and elderly loved ones.
Colleen Krecic, Lead Care Pro
Hello, I'm Colleen and my family moved from Rockland New York to Port St Lucie in 2007. I have been a professional CareGiver with Home Instead since 2020 and have been awarded numerous awards including CareGiver of the Year! I love sharing my light and delivering compassionate and empathetic care to our elderly clients.
My passion is to show and treat each one of my clients with the love and support as I would want a family member of my own to be treated, and that’s how I treat them, like family. Working for Home Instead has been a blessing, the beautiful people I have come in contact with on this life’s journey have made me a better person. Not only am I caring for them, but they are unknowingly making a loving impact on me and I’m truly grateful. My goal as a lead caregiver is to leave clients with a happy positive feeling of love that every one of them deserves.
