Leanne’s Bio
I am a seasoned Certified Dementia Practitioner. I have coached hundreds of caregivers who provide care for someone with Alzheimer's Disease and other Dementia's. I am also a Senior Home Safety Specialist and assist families with creating Dementia Friendly and Safe homes for their loved ones.
I worked in Child Protective Services for 20 years before changing career paths. In 2016, I began working with the 60 and over population as a Protective Service Advocate and Supervisor. While in these, roles I became aware of the many challenges caregivers face while providing care for someone with Alzheimer's and/or Dementia and resources and supports were limited. I knew I wanted to learn all I could about this disease and how I can assist elders and their caregivers. I attended number of trainings and received a number of certifications since 2016.
