OWNER & CONTINUING CARE ASSISTANT
Sara Pierrard
Born and raised on a farm outside Humboldt, SK, Sara acquired a passion for helping people when she started working with people dealing with disabilities. Through high school, Sara volunteered in the hospital, nursing homes, and group homes in addition to working at Camp Easter Seal. She knew this was the career journey she needed to do. After starting a family Sara took her CCA course, First Aid and other certification courses. After working in Home Care and Long-term Homes, she knew she needed to do more! This is when Country Care Sask started.
Her true heart and passion is to help others be safe and enjoy the journey in life. She wants people to feel appreciated and not like a number. Aging should be as great of a journey as it was getting there, or at least feel as special.
