Different from nursing care, Acorn Elder Care provides companions and caregivers for seniors who live independently, but may need additional support to maintain an enjoyable and healthy lifestyle.
Spending a few hours in the company of a pleasant, friendly, and helpful caregiver can make an enormous difference in an aging person’s quality of life. Just as important, family members can feel confident knowing that their mother, father, grandparent, aunt, uncle, brother, or sister is not lonely, but well-taken care of between family visits.
Denise Dublin
Owner
With deep roots in the Martin and Saint Lucie County areas, Denise Dublin began her career as a professional nurse working at Martin Memorial Hospital (now Cleveland Clinic). She continued her career in-home health care, including at a Medicare-certified home health agency, Treasure Coast Hospice, and finally in the private duty home care for the past 17 years.
Over the years, Denise has served on numerous volunteer committees and boards, including the American Heart Ball and American Lung Association committees, and the boards of Molly’s House (three years) and South East Florida Honor Flights (four years).
Denise’s experience and compassion for the elderly and people with disabilities gives her great insight into being able to recommend the best course of action in optimizing the client’s quality of life.
In addition to her love of boating, traveling, and outside activities, Denise enjoys spending time with her husband, adult children and their spouses, and her four beautiful grandchildren.
