We are beyond thrilled to have Karen Crosby be a part of SAIDSO. Karen is a seasoned registered nurse currently specializing in hospice care and serving the east coast of Florida where she has lived for 32 years. Karen is recently certified in Positive Approach to Care (Teepa Snow). Karen brings authority and empathy to the team as she cared for her own mother through dementia. She looks forward to walking alongside families in a similar journey through the struggles and difficulties of caring for loved ones living with dementia. Karen desires to create an individualized plan of care to help support, coach, and teach the necessary tools to honor and care for your loved one during this new and unchartered season. Karen's main desire is to enhance the quality of life, not only for those living with dementia but those caring for them as well
We look forward to growing with Karen helping to support quality dementia care!

About Our Team
Our caring and dedicated family is growing and we are beyond blessed to work alongside Joyce Winder. Joyce started working with people living with Dementia when her own father was diagnosed at an early age (54 yrs old). Joyce has been caring for those living with Dementia for over 17 years in various roles (caregiver, caregiver lead, and as a supervisor of caregivers). Joyce believes that one day we will have a cure for Dementia, but until that day she wants to support, educate, care for, and help as many people as she can; not only those living with Dementia but those loving them through it as well. Joyce has earned her Certified Dementia Practitioner designation and is currently working towards her Positive Approach to Care Coaching certification.
We have only one positive way to go with such skill and dedication!
