Stephanie EricksonDirector and Founder
Stephanie Erickson, Director of Erickson Resource Group, has over 15 years of experience as a geriatric social worker. She has worked with seniors living autonomously at home, placed in care facilities, at the hospital and living with family. She has heard countless stories from families who were struggling with balancing their caregiving responsibilities, work and their own family obligations. These families shared how difficult it was to find the time, resources and emotional energy to meet all of the demands placed on them. Based on these shared experiences, Stephanie founded Erickson Resource Group, a comprehensive and simple resource for caregivers to obtain all of the information they need in an efficient and easy way. Stephanie’s areas of specialty include cognitive assessments, placements for seniors, home assessments, palliative care, and family and individual counseling. She has a Master’s Degree in Social Work and is licensed in both Quebec and California. Erickson Resource Group works with specialists from all areas of senior care such as social workers, physiotherapists, dieticians, occupational therapists, recreational therapists, physicians, nutritionists, notaries, attorneys and financial planners to ensure the information provided is comprehensive and up to date.
