Lynn has spent the last 20 years working with older adults and their families experiencing life after an Alzheimer’s and dementia diagnosis. While managing the office at a Nursing Home and Rehab center, she found herself working with families trying to make long-term decisions based on emotionally charged, urgent needs and found so much value in this work. She continued this path at two Assisted Living communities that offered Memory Care services and this is when Lynn began to focus on assisting those living with Alzheimer’s and dementia and their caregivers. The effects of being a caregiver and it’s impact on the family unit as a whole is a passion for Lynn.  In October 2018, she joined Mental Health America of the MidSouth as the Caregiver Support Coordinator. She is a certified Dementia Specialist and member of the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners. Lynn’s work takes her to 13 counties in the Greater Nashville area where she shares her knowledge through conference and community presentations. Although Lynn loves presenting to the community, her number one focus and passion is meeting one-on-one with families and Caring for the Caregiver. Lynn is the board chair for Williamson County geriatric council and is a voting member of the Robertson County health council. In addition to working with Aging Adults Lynn is also a Certified Mental Health First Aide Trainer. The effects that being a caregiver have on the whole family unit is a passion for Lynn.
