Amada Senior Care NorthShore
Jennifer Novy, owner of Amada Senior Care NorthShore, has dedicated her professional and personal life to caring for seniors. A life-long Chicagoan, she uses her extensive senior care experience to help her neighbors in Lake Forest, Libertyville, Lincolnwood, Winnetka, Skokie, Deerfield, Highland Park, Northbrook, Glenview, Park Ridge, Wilmette, Glencoe and Evanston, Elmhurst, Downers Grove, Hinsdale and Western Springs live independently in their own homes and maintain a high quality of life. Jenny says, “I have a master’s in gerontology as well as a master’s in therapeutic recreation, and I’ve been working with seniors across Illinois for the past 25 years. I feel very fortunate that older adults have always been a part of my life: I even knew my great-grandparents and my great-aunts. Most importantly, both of my grandparents on my mother’s side and on my father’s side played a huge role in my life. In fact, my grandma and grandpa lived just down the street and I was fortunate to help care for them when they were coming to the ends of their lives. “More recently, we lost my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, both to cancer. They were so young, and we were not ready. But we were able to bring hospice caregivers into their home, and they made such a difference in the care both Mom and Dad received. They worked with us to provide comfort, and they made Mom and Dad’s lives better. They made our lives better, too.” Now, Jenny and her team at Amada NorthShore work hard to provide the same level of compassion in-home care services for other seniors and their families. As Jenny says, “I really have a passion for working with seniors, and I want to make a difference in your life — for you and your loved ones.” At Amada NorthShore, we know that the best home health and senior care is always a family endeavor. That’s why we go out of our way to treat each one of our adults and senior clients and their loved ones like a member of our own family.
