After working as an LPN for four years, Averel Carby attended Broward Community College, Palm Beach State College, and Florida Atlantic University. She became a Registered Nurse in 2001, while at the same time working in home health care as an LPN. Averel chose nursing after working for many years in administration for several prominent businesses. The decision to become a nurse evolved from a natural ability and desire to extend herself to care for others. She worked in the areas of Post Anesthesia Care (PACU), and Acute Rehabilitation. However, she quickly realized that the hospital setting did not allow her to spend quality time with patients. Averel Carby moved on from the hospital setting to become a nurse Care Coordinator, providing coordination of care to pediatric patients with medical challenges in the community. This gave Averel the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of many families. She provided access to medical specialists in the community, scheduled a wide range of procedures at various hospitals and diagnostic facilities, and generally coordinated the health care necessary for the clients, based upon periodic assessment of needs. However, her love of home health care nursing led her to make the decision to focus all her attention in this area. And it was no surprise when the thought of becoming an entrepreneur entered her mind that Averel chose home health care. She knew she had the knowledge, competence, and expertise in the delivery of nursing care over the years, to patients in their homes, to be an asset as educator and consultant.
