About Kara
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello, my name is Kara. I am a Registered Nurse and graduate student in Geriatric Nurse Practitioner studies at Kent State University with extensive experience in hospice, dementia care, rehabilitation, long-term care, and home-based nursing. My approach is rooted in both clinical expertise and compassion. I believe every older adult deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and genuine human connection. Drawing from the principles of narrative medicine, I strive to care not only for a person's medical needs but also for the unique life story, experiences, and values that make them who they are. Whether providing companionship, nursing oversight, medication management, appointment support, or assistance navigating the challenges of aging, my goal is to help older adults remain safe, comfortable, and engaged in the lives they love.
Most recent review
I hired Kara to assist with a senior day program I run and she was the best employee I had. She never missed a day, thoroughly enjoyed each senior she assisted and has a great energy full of joy and compassion. When she left to do nursing and private care I was sad to lose her but realize this is her calling and support her fully.
