About Embodied Labs: From caregivers to caregivers
Our founder's story
A journey through Alzheimer's
Carrie became a caregiver at 19 when her mom was diagnosed with Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease. She used safety goggles and some tape to help others understand what her mom’s left field visual impairment looked like and improve their care for her.
Once her caregivers understood why this happened and what they could do about it, it transformed the quality of care.
