When asked what leadership means to Sarah, here’s what she had to say: “Leadership is something that looks different to everyone. It’s something that truly depends on the leader, the team and the environment. As a leader, I believe that it’s my duty to be aware of my team’s needs, their learning or engagement styles, how they can best achieve success in their role and what our business requires. A leader who approaches their team as a coach understands that people are a reservoir of talent that can be further developed.”

Betty Lauzon has been an entrepreneur in a wide range of industries including marketing, management, finance, food, and education. She brings her wealth of knowledge and experience over the last 30 years into a partnership that has helped to create what Plan A Kingston & Quinte is today. Betty’s passion for the long term care sector began when she faced a personal situation related to her loved one’s declining health. These experiences opened her eye’s further as a call to action of what needed and could be done to support a sector where many of our community members and family members reside.

Plan A meets many of the areas Betty feels are important to herself and for the residents and health care professionals. For her, it allows an outlet to share experience, encouragement and provide support to others while working towards making a true positive impact on the long term sector. For the residents, it is working hard to ensure that shifts are filled resulting in care and attention received by those that absolutely deserve it. For the staff, the design of Plan A fits any employee’s dream of being able to choose their own work hours, with a strong focus on work life balance. As an employer she is able to empower her team to pick up shifts that fit their life for the greater health of all parties involved.
