Add to FavoritesAbout Edward
I'm Ed, a semi-retired university professor of health administration in Tucson Arizona. I assist clients navigate the healthcare system as well as help them with paying bills, organizing their medications, and providing transportation to medical appointments. I do not provide cooking or direct assistance with bathing, eating or other activities of daily living. Rather I serve as an informal case manager and coordinator of services. I want to help seniors and others thrive whatever their condition. I'm currently volunteering at the Villa Maria Care Center. Also, I have experience in assisting my parents as they aged. I have an MBA and a PhD in Health Care Administration, and I worked as a educator and trainer for 27 years. I am a intermediate-level Spanish speaker, and would like to have more practice speaking Spanish with bilingual clients.
