About Laura

I have worked in health care all my life. I've worked with kids and adults with mental and physical disabilities, in schools, group home settings, and within the home as well. I've worked for Bronson Hospital for ten years, before discovering my true passion, in home care. I'm gregarious, positive, and like bringing a sense of joy and humor to work with me every day. I love knowing that my being there, it can help someone stay in their home one more day.
