The Sandwich Generation

The Bad-Ass Soul Seeking Warrior Podcast Series

ARDA KARDJIAN, RN, BSN

Founder and President
Parentis Health, Parentis Foundation and Verona Court

With over 30 years of experience as a registered nurse, and nearly 20 years of owning and operating Verona Court, for Arda, healthcare still remains personal. Her own experiences as a caretaker began in 1985 when, as a nursing student, she moved her family along with her aging parents from Jerusalem, Israel, to Yonkers, New York, ultimately relocating to Southern California.

Arda channels her experiences of caring for her own family members into every patient at Verona Court, treating everyone in her care with the utmost dignity and compassion. As the co-founder of the Parentis Foundation, Arda provides both older adults and children opportunities to enrich their lives and share a sense of purpose through the power of literacy.

Fifty-four percent of American adults fall into the category of the Sandwich Generation. In my conversation with Arda you will learn what that means and some helpful tips, tools, and resources to assist you in navigating your way as a member of the Sandwich Generation. Regardless of your age, any adult over the age of 18 would benefit from listening to Arda. It is never too soon to begin putting a plan in place to assist our parents through their 'leveling up' as well as preparing ourselves and our children for the future.
