Active Adventures Assisted Living

I have been an RN for over 35 years, with experience in orthopedic and surgical acute care. Originally from Australia, I worked across three continents before settling down here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I trained to be a nurse in 1988, when holding someone's hand, washing their back, and simply sitting and listening, were as precious to them as all the medical technology of today. While scientific progress has made leaps and bounds in healthcare, I have not lost that passion for the art of nursing. It is my desire to create a warm, safe home environment where caregivers with tender hearts and careful hands, are personally overseen by professional Registered Nursing oversight. My caregiving staff, trained to my high standards of care, will leave no stone unturned to continually explore your loved ones' individual preferences, and encourage, engage, socialize, and help them rediscover their sense of purpose and joy. As a registered nurse with extensive caregiving experience, I will professionally advocate for your family member to a variety of healthcare entities. Endeavoring to keep communication lines open and transparent, my vast nursing background will bring you the highest degree of comfort and confidence in the quality of your loved ones' care. I will be able to anticipate and offer solutions to medical issues before they arise by offering frequent reassessments on those entrusted to my care.
