June Fenton is the owner and administrator of Serenity of Commerce. She is a licensed clinical social worker with a master degree from University of Michigan and certification in geriatrics from University of Illinois. "I have been involved with long term care options for over twenty five years. While it is generally optimal for loved ones to remain in their homes, caregivers struggle to meet their changing needs and maintain peace and security. And when confronted with cognitive decline, research has shown that smaller, home style environments provide greater benefit to residents by limiting the potential for isolation in their rooms. A home environment also promotes a person's desire to continue normal activities that were performed in their own home.
