"Andrea has 30 years of nursing experience and it shows. Two days after she agreed to take on our situation, my wife went to the hospital. She texted every day to ask how she was and spoke to the nursing staff at the hospital when I asked her for advise. One of the things that I like the most about her is that she cares. She has my trust. The combination of her knowledge, experience, caring personality and knowing when to engage and when to wait is excellent. If you need a Care Manager, I highly recommend Andrea. You won't be disappointed."

"I have known Andrea for over 30 years. When it was time to get some help for a family member, we reached out to her. We had other options but we chose Andrea for several reasons. She has extensive training and her evaluation process reflects her years of experience in the field. She listens intently and asks additional questions, diving into certain topics and making sure every issue is addressed. Her follow up report made it easy for my family member to make some changes...which should make things safer for him and also improve his quality of life. She also has a great sense of humor and she is kind.
We were all a little anxious about the meeting but we were all at ease within minutes of Andrea walking through the door. I highly recommend Andrea for anyone needing a Senior Healthcare Specialist!"

"Often times, when my clients contact me it's because they're looking for support during a time of turmoil, and emotions are high. That's why I love referring clients to Andrea. Besides her calm and kind bedside manner, Andrea is "the expert" when a family needs coaching on their loved ones health condition, coaching on a current hospital stay, and even coaching on adapting to dementia. Andrea not only puts my clients at ease, she also puts me at ease knowing my clients are in getting white-glove support regarding their health change."

"I hired Andrea to assist with a family member who had unexpected, and severe, complications from surgery. Andrea was very helpful in explaining medical concepts, reassuring our family, and making sure that all protocols, necessary interventions, and additional services were provided to the patient. When the patient was discharged to a rehabilitation in Northern Virginia, she helped us find an appropriate geriatric care manager there to take over the case. Andrea was available any time we needed her and the patient was also delighted to have her help. Highly recommend.
