This is a letter of recommendation to strongly support Julie who has been a caregiver to multiple patients of mine over the last 5 to 7 years.
Most recently she took care of Joanne and I was most impressed by her genuine concern, committed to love and care for my patient. My patient had end stage Alzheimer's Dementia which is very taxing for family and loved ones. It requires complete devotion, love, attention to detail and ability to engage from a caregiver. I can't think of anyone who could have done all of these above better than Julie.
From attending to daily feedings and hygiene necessities, to seamlessly notifying and working with doctors for medical intervention and needs, to finally completing the full circle of life by drawing, reading and bringing smiles and confidence to the patient's, Julie did all with grace and confidence.
She has my highest recommendations, and if my family member were in need of a caregiver, I would always think first of Julie. She is responsible, sincere, honest and gives all to my patient's needs.

Jennifer Blickenstaff
My name is Jennifer Blickenstaff and I'm writing on behalf of Julie Ramsey and the care she provided my mother.
Mom was getting to the point of needing alot more help and supervision. My brother and I didn't even know how to begin to look for someone that could fill in at her home at the times of day that were most crucial. Mom had a neighbor across the street that knew someone who was a caregiver for a man in the neighborhood. He arranged for us to meet. Julie and the mans wife came over. His wife Lynn could not say enough good things about the care that Julie provided.
We hired her on the spot and Julie was a God send. We were so impressed by her care and her love for our mom.
She was in tune with mom's every need. She was so loving and fun-loving with mom and mom loved her and always felt comfortable with her. Keeping mom safe and comfortable was her number one goal. Julie took mom on outings and ran errands with her. They developed a mutual "admiration society". I was always so comfortable that mom was in such good hands with Julie. I very highly recommend Julie to anyone needing care for a loved one.

Hospice, end of life care is such a necessary organization. Your help, described in words, can never fully convey the comfort it provided. Your response to our needs was overwhelming. You were supportive and caring at a time that was extremely difficult for us all. Knowledge and experience helped to prepare us for the inevitable, as well as navigate the difficult course of action needed to transition in peace.
This is written to express our deepest and warmest thank you for the home care given to our beloved, Hilda M. Jordan. At no time was her dignity demeaned or her comfort lessened. She left this world in peace and dignity- which was, in no small part, due to your thoughtful care. It is for sure that your knowledge, expertise, and sincere feelings are God touched. Your ability to offer calm and reassurance in life’s darkest hours is a gift bestowed upon you. Your kindness while going through our painful ordeal is a gift of your heart.
The words “thank you” is so inadequate for expressing our gratitude to you. We are truly honored she was cared for by such a wonderful person.
I cannot imagine a more difficult profession than which you and fellow staff have chosen. You are indeed special people.
Thank you for all the magnificent work that you do in helping families and patients who need you. You have our deepest gratitude and heartfelt appreciation for all the help you gave our mother.

Julie took wonderful care of my mother at Merrill Gardens allowing her to spend the final weeks of her life in her “home” of the last four years. This made my mother very happy and was a blessing to the entire family. Julie is extremely compassionate and completely trustworthy. My family and I got to know her at Merrill Gardens more than three years ago as the caregiver to a fellow resident. We felt so fortunate to have her care for our mother her last days and weeks.
My mother’s decline was unexpected and progressed quickly. When we learned Julie was available we made arrangements for her to start immediately. My mother died quietly late May in her room surrounded by music and her gallery of artwork with Julie at her side.
It is important for us to share how much peace of mind she brought to our family. Julie has many years of experience. She is attuned to small nuances in mood, behavior and health. She is strong of body, heart and soul. This is her true calling. While caring for my mother Julie performed a variety of activities. She assisted my mother with bathing, dressing, feeding meals and administering medications. She took my mother for walks around her facility to allow her to get fresh air regularly. She ensured her clothing and bed linens were clean. When my family and I visited, my mother was always in good spirits. Julie was a wonderful companion for my mother. She spent time in conversation with her to help keep her alert and played the music she dearly loved.

Julie started caring for my fiancé in 2019 and from that time I'm honored to call her my friend.
When I think back to when Julie started, Covid had just begun. Julie jumped into action and found us the vaccine before anyone I knew. He was 84 and compromised with a history of pneumonia .It would take the whole page to write my praises for her. She went from the caregiver for my fiancé to being everything and anything we needed. She had to be the administrative assistant, a gardner, a handy man, a driver and so much more and all while making the environment such a happy one.
She had to play many roles while still putting her heart and soul into her role as Don's caregiver. She was able to anticipate his needs before he knew what even he needed.
In 2023 she brought on her brother Mike after Jack got sick with bacterial pneumonia and a 3 week hospital stay. His needs and care increased and Julie jumped to the task. Julie and Mike were Don's team and he spoke of them like they were his own family. He often said that he had the perfect life because of them. He didn't just exist in his old age because Julie made sure he did and saw as much as he could. She took us out on outings a few times a week or whenever Don wanted and he felt like because of them his life was perfect.
I believe in my heart, and so did Jack, that he made it to see his 90th birthday because of Julie and Mikes care and their 100 percent dedication to every health challenge Don faced. He ended each and every day at bedtime grateful for Julie and Mike and I will forever in my heart feel blessed and grateful, Tom loved them and they loved him.
