Crystal Care Center of Ashland: 

    Jeanne Demyan has been a nursing home administrator for over 20 years.  She began her career with a family owned group that had 5 nursing homes in Ohio, working with them for 10 years.   After moving back to her hometown of Ashland from the Kent, Ohio area, Jeanne joined the staff as administrator at Crystal Care Center of Mansfield in 1996 and then transferred to our Ashland facility. 

    Jeanne is VP of Operations for Crystal Care Centers and serves on a daily basis as administrator at the Ashland facility.   “This is a rewarding career, both in providing care for the elderly and those who need assistance but also in being able to give help and guidance to employees and promote them to better themselves,” states Jeanne.

Jeanne lives in Ashland with her Chihuahuas.  She enjoys showing at dog shows in Ohio and Kentucky, and breeding and raising puppies.  Jeanne has two daughters, one in Pataskala, Ohio, and one in Huntsville, Alabama.
