TINTON FALLS, NJ–June 18, 2020–Assisting Hands® Home Care, a Tinton Falls-based business that provides professional in-home care services to patients in Mercer, Monmouth and Ocean Counties, allowing them to remain safely and comfortably in their own homes, has welcomed Victoria Hurley-Schubert as its new director of community relations and communications.
“Victoria’s unique combination of communications expertise and home care experience made her the perfect fit to help increase the awareness of the value of home care in the health care system,” said Gerry Patrizio, president and owner of Assisting Hands Home Care. “Her passion for home care comes across in her ability to talk about that first-hand caregiver experience. In a short time, Victoria has already made a difference in our marketing and communications, she is a great asset for the team.”
Hurley-Schubert brings more than 20 years of award-winning communications experience to Assisting Hands Home Care. Prior to joining the company, she was a public relations specialist at Creative Marketing Alliance where she worked with a broad range of clients in health care, small business services and manufacturing. She worked on numerous campaigns that won multiple awards from the NJ Ad Club, New Jersey Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America, New Jersey Communications, Advertising and Marketing Association (NJCAMA). She was named one of Jersey’s Best 40 Under 40 by the NJ Ad Club and Jersey Shore Public Relations and Advertising Association in 2017.
Her passion for home care comes from her years of experience as a caregiver for her mother.
“As I navigated home care for many years while my mom was seriously ill and needed constant care, I learned the value of it first hand,” said Hurley-Schubert. “I was the child who had to constantly make choices about balancing her needs with mine, doing the work-life balance juggle all day, every day. Without her home health aides, I would not have been able to fulfill her wish of remaining in her home while still maintaining my career. I am thrilled with the opportunity to be a voice and advocate for this vital segment of the health care system that is often overlooked.”
Prior to joining CMA, she was the event and media coordinator at the Princeton Mercer Regional Chamber of Commerce and an award-winning journalist at the Princeton Packet. At the Chamber, she was responsible for building relationships with members of the media, business community, government and the community-at-large to help advance the mission of the Chamber and the Princeton Region Convention and Visitors Bureau.
