What an honor it’s been to guide thousands of dementia families from diagnosis to the day they say goodbye.
Caring for the Caregiver
Has always been woven into my work.
A typical day finds me:
Managing dementia crisis to keep patients and caregivers safe
Doing dementia support groups that focus on managing challenging behaviors
Providing dementia education so that families know what to expect
But it’s the type of care that you and your loved one deserve.
Helping dementia families plan for the future
I’m with my caregivers as they share their struggles, and as they find relief. It’s such a joy to nurture a space where they can learn, share and get support.
Linking caregivers to vital skills, tools and benefits.
What truly lights me up is leading dementia caregiver support groups.
I have fast tracked dementia families for success for hospital systems and at a leading non-profit. I coordinated the launch of a national caregiver program for a major medical facility. A highlight of my career has been working with a specialized dementia care team. We give our dementia families personalized care from a team of neurologists, geriatric psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, geriatricians, RN’s and of course, social work professionals. We ensure our patients and families get coordinated care throughout the illness.
