Before joining the assisted living community, Laura trained and worked at Barrow’s Neurological Center in St Joseph’s Hospital on the “Neurology/Neurosurgery Acute Unit.” This valuable experience provided a detailed refinement of nursing skills and knowledge as Laura treated patients who had suffered recent brain/spinal surgeries, strokes, neurological disorders and infections, complications after falling, Parkinson’s Disease, Traumatic Brain Injuries, and more. Laura continues to use these experiences when developing specific individualized care plans and detailed communication with medical practitioners. Benjamin continues to care for our Nation’s Veterans at the bedside daily. Since beginning his nursing career nine years ago, Benjamin’s intelligence and expertise quickly highlighted him as a prime candidate for managerial positions.

Benjamin and Laura reside on the property in the Acacia Heights guest house with their two children. Their favorite family activities are taking walks to the park and going on an outing to the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium.
