HOST | SPEAKER | AUTHOR |CARETAKER ADVOCATE | HEALTHCARE EXPERT

Mary Elaine is a healthcare expert who has nearly twenty years of healthcare and pharmaceuticals sales and marketing experience with neurorehabilitation, hospitals, and home health companies as well as twenty years as a healthcare provider working with children and adults in schools, home care, hospitals, nursing homes, and memory care settings as well as independent and assisted living facilities.

Mary Elaine’s unique family legacy of activism in the labor movement in the coalfields in Southern Colorado led her to pursue a career in healthcare as a Speech Language Pathologist; her mission has been to give children and adults a ‘voice’ to communicate their wants and desires.

As part of the “sandwich generation", she assisted her parents in choosing qualified home healthcare services that matched their needs as well as finding a quality adult day care program and providing financial support to meet their social and emotional needs.

During this process she realized that there are huge groups of people seeking guidance around their parents' healthcare and wellness as they retire in record numbers daily! Mary-Elaine has decided to assist these family caregivers just as she did her own parents.
