Jennifer CrowleyJennifer is owner and founder of Eagleview West, a leading Life Care Management & consulting company serving Northwest Montana and surrounding areas.

Jennifer completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from The Ohio State University in 1993. Jennifer resides in Kalispell and enjoys time with fam-ily, exercising, travel, and doing most things outdoors. Jennifer spent many years of her career focused on critical care nursing. She also served as a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer in Papua New Guinea. Later, she relocated to Montana after completing a short-term assignment as a travel nurse. After many years working in the acute care setting, and while working full time as a critical care nurse, she founded her Life Care Management practice, Eagleview West. Having a vision to move her career outside the acute setting for a more flexible option, reduced stress and good potential for increased earnings while eliminating "shift work." Jennifer's experience of starting a business unique to Montana included many struggles, mistakes and opportunities for learning how to overcome some of the unique and common challenges for professionals in private practice. Jennifer found there was a lack of a simple resource which focused on planning for the many years spent in older adulthood. Jennifer published a book, "7 Steps to Long Term Care Planning" in 2017, a guidebook for individuals, families and professionals to utilize for designing a road map for aging. She also holds multiple credentials, including Certified Dementia Trainer and Practitioner (CADDCT), Certified Life Care Planner (CLCP), and Certified Care Manager (CMC). Her years of experience helps provide exceptional services to a diverse clientele while being responsive to the needs of all involved parties. Being a master of collaboration, along with a caring demeanor, compliments the business-minded approach Jennifer uses. Jennifer serves in many leadership roles and volunteers locally and at the state level. Jennifer served two terms as a public-school trustee for Flathead County, participated as a stakeholder expert to develop the "State plan for Alzheimer's and Related Dementia," and was more recently appointed by the Montana Supreme Court to serve as a member of the Working Interdisciplinary Networks of Guardianship Stakeholders (WINGS). Over many years as a volunteer for the Alzheimer's Association, Jennifer has helped raise much needed funding and improved aware-ness, helping connect others to valuable resources, education and support. Passionate about building a positive business culture with ever-present opportu-nities for personal enrichment and professional development, Jennifer hopes to encourage others to pursue leadership positions, stay connected to others in the industry, and volunteer regularly. Jennifer hopes to help other professionals have a better understanding of the field of Life Care Management, have a good foundation for being able to help others while capitalizing on their own experience and education, and understand the key areas of practice for Life Care Managers.
