At Caring Senior Service, we know that great care starts with great leadership. That’s why we’re proud to celebrate Lauren Malik, Agency Director of our Irvine, CA, office, for being named to the 2026 Future Leaders class by Home Health Care News.
In her interview, Lauren shares the personal experience that first inspired her passion for senior care. As a child, she witnessed her great uncle struggle to have his needs heard while living in a care facility, an experience that fueled her desire to advocate for older adults and ensure they are treated with dignity and compassion.
Lauren also discusses her leadership philosophy, emphasizing servant leadership, accountability, empathy, and the importance of supporting caregivers. She reflects on the lessons she’s learned throughout her career and shares her perspective on the future of home care, including workforce development, value-based care, and the growing role of technology.
