Brynne Hicks is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialized focus on geriatric social work. Brynne private practice centers around providing care management for seniors and individuals under guardianship, including those with major mental illness, brain injury, and developmental disabilities. Additionally, Brynne holds certifications as a professional guardian at both the national and state levels.

In 2017, Brynne was entrusted with providing care management for Lucy. This experience led Brynne to create The Purple Nest Model of Care. Recognizing the benefits, she observed that Lucy received dedicated and high-quality care from compassionate companions as well as caregivers at a more affordable cost to the family, while the caregivers enjoyed increased autonomy compared to agency-based employment.

With expertise in elder care and care management, Brynne is a valuable resource for families interested in adopting the Purple Nest Model. Her knowledge extends to managing complex medical care, hiring, training, and supervising companions and caregivers, understanding dementia-related challenges, and preparing for the future. Feel free to reach out to her for guidance on these matters.
