About Our Speaker Jake Gamble 

Jake is the owner and administrator of Generations Home Care, a locally owned business in Tacoma. He has been involved in caring for seniors in some capacity for the last decade, spending the first portion of that time working in memory care and doing training with the Alzheimer's Association. Jake's passion for training families, quality care and understanding the disease stem from his time loving and serving the families that have walked through Alzheimer's and other dementias. Jake has presented Understanding Dementia classes at Franke Tobey Jones for several years, always to a full house.  He is so compassionate and truly understands what you are going through. Bring your concerns and questions as there will be time at the end of each class for Q & A.
