Veronica Mancinelli - Owner
My career has always been driven by a deep commitment to helping others. I began as a nurse in a fast-paced private ambulance setting, where I stabilized patients and provided emergency care during transport. This high-pressure environment sharpened my ability to make quick decisions and master lifesaving techniques.
I then transitioned to a psychiatric facility, where I provided compassionate care to patients in vulnerable situations, ensuring their safety while managing medication inventory and compliance with strict regulations. This role refined my ability to balance empathy with precision.
Moving into telemedicine, I combined hands-on care with technology, remotely monitoring patients with chronic conditions and assisting them with treatment plans. I also worked closely with pharmaceutical leaders like Pfizer and AstraZeneca to report adverse drug reactions.
I love to bring these diverse experiences into my own business, train personally my caregivers (CNA, PCA), especially in Dementia and Alzheimer’s care, with the aim of delivering high-quality care, fostering community well-being, and making a meaningful impact in people’s lives.

Lora-Jean Estremera, Networker
With over 12 years of experience in home and long-term care, I bring a strong foundation in patient-centered support, paired with a deep understanding of how to navigate care needs with compassion and clarity.
Today, in my role as a networker, I focus on building meaningful relationships with referral sources and local partners. I use my background in caregiving and healthcare administration to bridge the gap between families and the support they need—delivering solutions that are thoughtful, personalized, and trusted.
Every connection is a chance to make a real impact. I’m here to guide, support, and serve as a reliable resource for those looking to provide the best possible care.
