Johanna Gillen
President/Owner
I am the proud owner of Homewatch CareGivers serving Central Bucks County. Before becoming a small business owner, I worked as a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) in a local hospital. From this experience I gained the experience to work for a home care agency as their Human Resource Manager, where I started to understand the characteristics necessary to be an exceptional caregiver. Eventually, I took on the role of the agency’s Client Care Coordinator where I gained understanding about the needs of the clients by matching the perfect caregiver to complete the client’s care. This is where I began to appreciate the true impact of individualizing care based on the client’s established routine.
I had discovered my true passion and calling in life and decided to open my own home care agency to serve the community.
My husband, Andy, and I each have adults sons who we treasure. Together, Andy and I have two four-legged babies, Mia and Marco.
When we’re not at work, we like to travel and see the world.
Emily Flanagan
Director of Caregiver Services
I have worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in many areas of health care including hospitals, nursing home/rehab and home care. My experiences have led me to a detailed skillset that provides comfort and assistance to those in need of home care.
I transitioned from being a CNA to a staffing coordinator and learned a lot about the administration of home care and saw that I wanted to further my education in Health Policy and Administration. I was very lucky and fortunate to join the team at Homewatch CareGivers in 2020!
My husband, Ryan, and I have two four-legged babies and a bright future together ahead of us!
Wanda Whittington
Staffing Coordinator
I’m Wanda Whittington I have a wealth of experience in home care and healthcare leadership; I bring a strong foundation in compassionate caregiving, team coordination, and operational excellence.
My journey began as a caregiver, supporting families with daily living needs and emotional support. I later served in leadership roles where I oversaw multi-department operations and built strategic partnerships to improve care delivery. Most recently, I worked as a Field Supervisor as well as a Regional CNA Floater where I focused on quality assurance, team leadership, and patient-centered care.
What fueled my passion for healthcare throughout the years has been creating meaningful connections with caregivers’ clients, community being a bridge making sure everyone feels valued and cared for. I’m excited to be a part of a team that truly makes a difference in people’s lives every day.
Donna Miller
Director of Client Services
After a career in Marketing, Sales, and Business Development, I found my true calling in working with people and providing them the resources they need to be happy and fulfilled in their lives, even when they need a little help at home.
I grew up surrounded by love and compassion and learned at a very early age what it meant to be a caretaker, both physically and emotionally. My sister had leukemia and my brother was born with disabilities. Although they have both since passed away, I will always remember their beautiful smiles, love, and appreciation for family and friends.
One of my favorite quotes sums up caregiving for me: “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”
My husband Dean and I have been happily married for 33 years. We have a lovely 29-year-old daughter, Alex, who is a registered nurse.
