Known for her gentle approach, her gift of listening and her love for animals, Carol McNamara is first described by her team as “compassionate” and “fantastic."

A Neonatal Nurse for over twenty years, Carol McNamara serves Stephen’s Place residents with the greatest level of respect, care and concern for their individual needs.
