About the Founder
Meet Shannon Busch, BSW, CSW, CDP, SHSS
Owner & Senior Care Manager
LifePath Senior Care Management was founded by Shannon Busch with a simple purpose: to provide older adults and their families with a trusted, knowledgeable resource as they navigate the changes, decisions, and challenges that can come with aging.
With extensive experience in social services, long-term care, healthcare, and senior care management, Shannon has spent her career supporting older adults and families through changing care needs, care transitions, discharge planning, dementia-related concerns, family decision-making, and planning for safety and independence at home.
As a Certified Social Worker, Certified Dementia Practitioner, and Senior Home Safety Specialist, Shannon brings together professional experience and a compassionate, personalized approach. She takes the time to understand each person's needs, preferences, routines, and goals—because aging support should never be one-size-fits-all.
Through LifePath, Shannon provides Senior Care Management, Wellness & Companion Visits, and Home Safety Assessments, along with advocacy, care coordination, family guidance, and aging-in-place support. Each service is designed around a shared goal: helping older adults remain safe, connected, independent, and well-supported, while giving families greater confidence and peace of mind.
Because navigating aging shouldn't be something families have to figure out alone.
Expert Guidance. Compassionate Support. Better Paths for Aging.
