In her free time, she enjoys spending quality time with her family, especially her grandchildren. Karen also has a deep passion for animals, with dogs holding an extra special place in her heart. When asked about the things she finds most enjoyable about in-home care, Karen said, “I enjoy the hands on experience of helping people with their daily activities, getting to spend time with them one-on-one, and really getting to know a person. It’s hard to get that in a facility setting.”
