My prior employer Walker Methodist became Lakehouse Healthcare in May 2023. Received my LISCW license in Dec 2023. In my role as nursing home social worker, I helped clients identify their strengths and clear hurdles as they worked towards their goals in their later years. I used a humanistic, solutions focused approach to problem solving with a terrific team of clients, families, other social workers, therapeutic rec specialists, OTs, PTs, RNs, CNAs, and community services. Related practice and research interest in "Nature Rx" to improve mental and physical well being.
