Caring Career Spotlight: Amanda, Clinical Coordinator

Amanda has spent three decades caring for others, and she still finds joy in helping people through life’s most important moments.

Since joining Elara Caring in January 2025 as an LPN Clinical Coordinator, she has become part of the team working behind the scenes to help patients receive compassionate care in the comfort of home.

“I have been an LPN for 30 years, and I truly enjoy helping and caring for others in the good times and the bad times,” Amanda shared.

One of the things she values most about home health is the opportunity to help patients remain in familiar surroundings while receiving the support they need to stay safe and independent.

“I love working for Elara Caring because we get to keep our patients safe in their homes where they can thrive at their best,” she said.

In her role as a Clinical Coordinator, Amanda helps keep communication flowing between care teams, office staff, patients and families. She says the strong sense of teamwork across the branches plays a major role in creating a positive experience for everyone involved.

“Our team works together in all aspects — whether it be for other team members or for our patients — and we support each other daily,” she explained.

That collaboration extends far beyond one department. Amanda is proud of the way every team member contributes to making patients feel valued, respected and cared for like family.

“I’m proud that we as a team provide our patients with the best care,” she said. “Whether it be the field staff or the office staff, we strive to make our patients feel as important as they are and treat them like family.”

While she spends each day supporting others, Amanda says she has also felt encouraged and uplifted by the people around her since joining Elara Caring.

“The support and guidance I have received while working at Elara Caring has been amazing,” she said. “It gives me great joy knowing that I work for such an amazing company.”

After 30 years in nursing, Amanda still approaches her work with the same compassion that first led her into health care: helping patients feel supported, cared for and never alone in their journey.
