Why I Became a Patient Advocate
My journey into patient advocacy began with my own parents. As they aged, I witnessed firsthand how complex, overwhelming, and disjointed the healthcare system can be—especially for older adults. I saw them struggle with being taken seriously, missing medications, skipping important tests, and falling through the cracks. It became clear that they—and so many others—needed someone in their corner. Someone who could ask the right questions, organize care, and ensure nothing was missed. I became that person for them, and it inspired me to help other families who feel just as overwhelmed. Many adult children are juggling full-time jobs, raising families, and trying to support their aging parents. I’m here to ease that burden, guide the way, and be the dependable nurse advocate every family deserves.
