Jean Ross, RN Bio: Purposefully choosing the nursing profession at 29, Jean spent six years in critical care before launching a community-based business focused on care coordination for aging adults and their family caregivers in 2015. This experience led her to see the harm and stress disconnected health information was causing families.
She co-founded Primary Record in July 2020 with her neighbor and technologist, Jim McIntosh, to address the growing need families have to organize, discuss, and share health information with the teams of people who support and help them.
Jean believes in building trusting relationships to impact change. You can find Jean giving time to serve on advisory councils for her local hospital, state nurses association, and local guardianship program. She also volunteers as a Circle Leader of a caregiver support group called Daughterhood. One of Jean’s proudest achievements is making over 500 Dementia Friends as a volunteer Dementia Champion with Dementia Friends Indiana. Through Dementia Friends Indiana, Jean has helped start local Memory Cafes, a dementia-friendly hospital, to educate emergency personnel and medical students.
Jean is the mother of three sons, Jonas, Ian, and Otis, two rescues, Blossom & Kevin, and the wife of Dr. Christian Ross, who also serves as the physician advisor to Primary Record.
The team at Primary Record believes the future of care starts with families having easy, secure access to their health data so they can support each other and access care designed for them.
