One example showcasing the results of her consulting work – a prominent senior community was given a 1 year grant to study complimentary therapies for agitation, anxiety (sun downing), disturbed sleep--and consequent falls related to poor sleep, appetite stimulation, and general wellness for care providers.

At the end of the grant, Aromatherapy was deemed successful in almost all areas, and therefore will continue to be provided to their residents and staff because of the impressive benefits provided.
