Laura Silverstein, MSN, RN, WCC, CDP, is True Care’s Director of Patient Services and oversees the PCA Certification Program. She loves home care because Caregivers build deep, long-term relationships with their clients, in contrast to hospital workers who are constantly coming and going. She has 17+ years experience working in various home care settings over the past 10 years but has a special place in her heart for True Care.
