Joan Woodlief, BS in Psychology and M.ED

Joan Woodlief is a Greenville native with a B.S. in psychology from the University of South Carolina and M.Ed. from Converse University.  She has 40 years of experience in case management and in navigating the health care system.  As a discharge planner for St Francis Hospital in Greenville and as one of their home health social workers and later work with two hospice programs, she has acquired invaluable skills in problem resolution, assessing client needs, and coordinating and accessing community support services such as non-medical care agencies, home health, alternative living options, and end of life documents. She offers emotional support to clients and their families and strives to help them with the best care plan to meet their individual needs.

In addition to her professional social work career Joan has also personally experienced the vital ( and often exhausting) role of being a caregiver. She first cared for her 84-year-old father in her home and a few years later became the full time caregiver for her husband who had Alzheimer’s Dementia and required total care in the home the last five years of his life.  Joan is a strong advocate for client rights and for caregiver support systems.

Joan balances her professional life with walks with her Pomeranian, Sassy, and quiet times outside soaking up nature and chatting with her daughter, Christina.
