Initial Consultation:
We begin with a discussion about the your current needs, health situation, goals, and circle of care. This allows me to understand their specific challenges and identify areas where support is most needed.

To eliminate any assumptions, clarity everyones roles and expectations, and empower patients and families to make informed decisions which lead to patient INTEGRITY AND DIGNITY throughout their life regardless of diagnosis, prognosis or end of life choice.
Ongoing Support
I accompany patients to appointments, help them ask appropriate questions, and clarify any medical recommendations from doctors. Between appointments, I coordinate follow-ups, keep patients and families informed, and ensure all aspects of care are handled smoothly.
Summary & Next Steps

I could not have asked for a better person than Anita to provide guidance for my elderly relatives’ healthcare needs. Anita has a wealth of knowledge with navigating our complex healthcare system, and the information she provided was pivotal in helping us make the best choices and minimizing our stress during a very difficult time. Anita laid out a detailed plan of care, and she went above and beyond to ensure I understood all of the medical options. Anita is very skilled and professional, and genuinely committed to helping her clients. I would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a healthcare advocate.”
