Past Experience
Before opening Urban Eldercare, LLC, in 2000, I was employed with the Visiting Nurse Service of New York as a Medical Social Worker and Care Coordinator. My interest in working with older adults began in 1998 when I was hired to coordinate a large federal research grant investigating elder abuse reporting in New York City.
