Meet Your Team

Helene is the Director of Business Development for Scott Counsel. She has spent the last thirty years dedicated to the Senior Population. In the past, she was the Marketing Director for Comfort Care which is a company providing adaptive equipment and orthotics to seniors in Assisted Living and Nursing Homes. She has spent eighteen years as the Marketing Director for Five Star Senior Living. She was able to help families make decisions for their loved ones and offered them a better quality of life as so many seniors were isolated in their homes. In her current role, she educates seniors and their families on the importance of having their estate plans and important documents in place. We strongly believe Every Life Deserves A Plan. She also helps and provides guidance to our clients with placement options when home is no longer a possibility.

Born and raised in South Philly, I grew up having a love for helping others.  I’ve been blessed in my journey over 30 years working in healthcare, skilled nursing and assisted living with a passion of helping families help their loved ones.  Working with Team Scott Counsel enables me to continue doing what I love.   When I am not working,   I enjoy my greatest treasures, my husband, children and the little guys that call me Grammie and Gi Gi.

It’s a good life and a great journey with the promise that there is still so much to do. Everyday gives us the opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life.

My name is Kimberley Clayton. I have my Bachelor’s of Science in Social Work from Stockton University. I have experience in case management from working in the nursing home setting, post acute care and long term care. I’ve always had an affinity for the elderly and my passion to help those in need has
grown over the years.

My husband and I are both musicians. I was classically trained on the piano for 15 years, and over the years have also learned to play the saxophone, guitar and the upright bass. I also enjoy landscape photography and have been fortunate enough to visit four of the seven continents, allowing me to capture some breathtaking scenes from all around the world. Travel has also allowed me to experience
many different cultures, for which I am eternally grateful.
