Charleston’s Elizabeth Spencer has labored with passion and dedication for eighteen years in the City of Charleston as the Coordinator of the Elder Support Line services. Her education is broad in its reach, but the work she does involves a great deal of her character that shines through in her conduct and demeanor. She is a dynamic public speaker and strong advocate for the elderly.
Everyone connected to local police departments, hospitals, the mental health department, every homecare agency, and the Probate and Criminal Courts knows to call Elizabeth when any kind of abuse is suspected.
She is quick to instruct that every adult in South Carolina is required to report abuse of any kind: emotional, physical including neglect, or financial exploitation which usually involves a relative stepping over boundaries of propriety.
Elizabeth Spencer is one of a kind. Our community owes her a great debt of gratitude for the seniors she protects in her work, and for all the hours she has spent educating the rest of us. Elizabeth was a Finalist in the 2009 Healthcare Hero First Responder category. Kudos, Elizabeth!
