She has served as the director of both life plan at home programs in the state of Tennessee, including LiveWell By Blakeford. Jane is passionate about wellness and aging and is committed to ensuring all LiveWell members have the opportunity to enjoy the quality of life and independence at home.

Jamie Irving has more than 30 years of nursing experience in a variety of long-term care and acute care settings. Our members say that Jamie’s calm demeanor and knowledgeable approach provides the right guidance when healthy and when in need. She is most often found spending time in person with LiveWell members supporting their life goals for being well.

Courtney Baxley joined the team in 2017 as a scheduler for Blakeford At Home and played a key role in implementing a new scheduling and billing software. Since then, her role has evolved to encompass administrative functions for both Blakeford At Home & LiveWell By Blakeford. Courtney lives in Nashville with her three favorite guys, two of which have fur.

Julie has a tremendous depth of experience in nursing, including working in nursing homes, hospitals, and with long-term care insurance. In recent years, Julie worked as a school nurse while raising her three boys and assisting her aging parents.

She has since returned to the field of geriatric nursing, which she states is her true passion. She has a B.S. in Human Services with a focus on geriatrics and a B.S. in Nursing from the University of Massachusetts, Boston.

She has lived her entire life in Massachusetts and recently relocated to Tennessee to be closer to two of her three sons. The oldest son still lives in Boston but is planning to join the rest of the family in Nashville this summer.

In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends. She loves to go on bike rides and walks with her husband and exploring
the Nashville area.
