Meet our Care Services Director, Jennifer! Jennifer has seven years of geriatric and hospice nursing experience followed by 13 years of urology experience. Jennifer and her family recently moved to Bluffton six months ago and this is her first position in SC. Her passion for geriatric nursing and advocacy led her to Vineyard of Bluffton where she currently serves as the Care Services Director.

Reading Group
Our reading club is just one of our different groups that meet every week. We fill our activities calendar with a variety of options suited to fit every resident’s interests!
Ageism
Ageism can be one of the biggest challenges facing retirees. It can take on several forms, including discrimination for employment or volunteer opportunities, underestimating older adults or ignoring older adults.
At Vineyard Bluffton, we work to help all residents live life to the fullest, including assisting them in overcoming ageism. Our staff understands how painful ageist behavior can be and we consistently strive to recognize it, speak out against it and ensure it doesn’t happen in our community.
To learn more about ageism and ways you can work to stop the stigma and help end ageism, read our blog post.
