Charles Kennedy RN, LNHA, CSSC Author, and Founder of Lighthouse Senior Services. A hands-on professional group that serves the sole purpose of keeping the mentally or physically impaired living in the comfort of their own home as long as and as safely as possible. Charles has been a registered nurse since 1982. For almost 30 years his focus has been with geriatric care. His work in both Skilled Nursing Facilities as a Director of Nursing and Licensed Nursing Home Administrator. As well as a Director of Operations in the home health arena, has offered him the unique opportunity to understand the needs and frustrations of so many seniors and their loved ones. Charles feels that even with so many fine choices in senior living facilities, Dorothy put it best in The Wizard of Oz, There is no place like home.
