Working with seniors started when my parents began needing assistance with the everyday complications which were a result of their aging processes. My father had strokes, and my mother, Alzheimer’s.
An opportunity to be part of the senior care community came my way, so, in 1996, I began this journey into senior care. After seven years working as a marketing manager, I was given the opportunity to do what I love most: advocating for seniors in the role of case manager, providing services to guardians for their clients. Over the next seven years, I have enlarged the scope of my work to include private clients and a singular guardianship.
My role as advocate provides my clients and their families with a hands-on person who will represent the needs and rights of the senior whenever warranted. For example, I am able to accompany the clients to their doctor appointments. Often, I am with the client while they are in the emergency room where I can make certain that the doctors have the most current information in their hands.
