“Spending time at my mother’s side as she suffered – and ultimately passed away – from dementia, I was able to see the healthcare industry from a different vantage point. I saw the difference made by the team of doctors and clinicians who surrounded and helped my mother in her final days and months. I joined ConcertoCare to work among like-minded, mission-driven colleagues that capture the essence of those who helped care for my mother. Our multidisciplinary team of providers is making a difference in the lives of older adults like my mother by helping provide them with comprehensive support as they age. I am proud to be part of an innovative organization devoted to helping those who are often overlooked by the traditional healthcare system.”
