Hillary Abrams is a graduate from the University of Georgia. She began her career in healthcare in the early 1990’s with emphasis on the aging population. A driving force in her motivation is her selfless and continuous outward focus of helping families because she has personally been thru the challenges with her own family. Hillary is the award-winning author of “Aging Parents and Options in Care: A Simple Handbook” and the owner of Eldercare Companions, Inc., a reputable personal home care agency. She consults with families, professionals and employees of organizations concerning the levels of care and assistance for the elderly.

From a young age, I have always been drawn to the field of healthcare, particularly in the realm of geriatrics. With over 20 years of dedicated experience as a licensed nurse, I have had the privilege of caring for and supporting some of the most vulnerable members of our society. My journey has been shaped by a profound commitment to enhancing the lives of elderly individuals, particularly those facing the challenges of dementia.

Armed with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a certification as a Dementia Practitioner, I have developed a holistic approach to care that focuses not only on physical health but also on emotional and psychological well-being. As I embark on the next chapter of my professional life by starting a case management company, I reflect on the lessons learned, the challenges faced, and the countless stories that have enriched my career.
