How I Can Help
With over 25 years of healthcare experience and a specialized focus on the geriatric population, I am dedicated to easing the burdens faced by seniors and their distant loved ones. Managing the care of aging parents from afar can bring a profound sense of worry, and my goal is to bridge that distance completely.
Whether it is ensuring your loved one has access to fresh foods, taking medications precisely as prescribed, or coordinating transportation to medical appointments big and small, I fill in all the crucial gaps. My comprehensive approach not only supports the independence and well-being of seniors, but also offers lasting reassurance to their families. Backed by extensive clinical experience, I am fully equipped to handle emergencies when they arise—providing a steady, expert presence especially during hospitalizations and care transitions.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My journey to advocacy began with the critical gaps in care I witnessed over the years, particularly within the senior population. When my father was diagnosed with dementia, my husband and I became his primary caregivers. Navigating his challenging progression and ever-changing needs gave me a profound, lived understanding of the emotional and physical weight that families carry.
Knowing firsthand that not every family has the ability to provide that level of care up close, I became deeply committed to helping seniors so that distant loved ones could feel less burdened. This personal experience shaped my professional focus, leading me to specialize in dementia care and elder support. Beyond my daily work, I proudly participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer's Holland Chapter, raising awareness and funds to support research and ensure that seniors living with Alzheimer's receive the compassionate care they deserve.
