After graduation, I worked as a Surgical Intensive Care Nurse. This critical care nursing experience helped me develop a strong base of technical skills in my chosen career.

I began working in home health care in 1993. This was a perfect fit for me. I enjoy educating patients regarding their disease and disease management. It was very satisfying to watch a patient successfully manage their disease or return to independent living after an illness.

I saw that my patients were often discharged from home care services, but still needed support to remain independent in their home. Unfortunately, the services they needed were not "medically necessary" and not covered by insurance, even though they help patients manage their disease and decrease
re-hospitalizations.

Some of my elderly patients were forced into hospital settings simply because they could not manage their own care. Patients without family caregivers living nearby were usually destined for nursing homes or assisted-living facilities.

I saw only one practical solution to this situation. That is why I have created ElderCare Management of Durham: A unique and personal approach to eldercare management.
