The Motivation Medics Team
Shannon Romano
Shannon was inspired to work in long-term care by her mother who was a care aide and eventually the activity coordinator at the facility where she worked for more than 20 years. Shannon spent many hours of her young adulthood volunteering at this facility, getting to know the residents and staff. It was this early experience that influenced her to focus her post-secondary studies on gerontology and clinical social work. Today, with more than 15 years of experience on interdisciplinary teams, Shannon is committed to improving how we care for adults in long-term care by supporting staff to stay healthy amidst the emotional demand of their role.

Mark Romano
Mark began his career as a volunteer at a long-term care facility in 1998. Instantly drawn to the field, Mark went to college and became a certified care aide and true to his entrepreneurial roots, began the first private home support service in his community. As the business grew, he developed and managed a quality team of care aides.
