Martha Pack is the president and CEO of Adapt & Stay, L.L.C.
Martha has a passion for helping others. For more than a quarter century, she has been doing that as an Occupational Therapist (OT) in multiple settings. This experience serves her well when assessing the physical or cognitive needs of a new client. This baseline is important for developing a highly customized plan to help adapt your home to keep your independence or lighten the load on caregivers.
Martha started her OT career in 1992 in a long-term nursing facility in Central Kentucky. From there, she moved to East Tennessee and has worked in hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, long-term care, home health care, outpatient services, and the public school system. These varied clinical experiences are invaluable in serving a variety of clients from the young to the young at heart.
While working in home health care, Martha identified a need for those who could remain independent longer, if someone could work with a contractor to offer expert advice to adapt and remodel their existing home. Martha began researching the most innovative solutions utilized by home modification practitioners. This led to a Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) certification through the National Home Builders Association, an Executive Certificate in Home Modification Programs (ECHM) from the prestigious University of Southern California's Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, a Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) earned through the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP), as well as specialized dementia caregiver training through the Skills2Care program offered through Thomas Jefferson University. Martha is one of only two in the state of Tennessee trained with the prestigious, research-tested Skills2Care program. Additional memberships in time-tested associations like the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), the Tennessee Occupational Therapy Association (TNOTA), and emerging professional groups like the Home Modification Occupational Therapy Alliance (HMOTA) are invaluable.
