Presenter Bios

Cathie Buscaglia, Director of Innovation, Howard Center

She has strong leadership, strategic planning, and program development skills. Cathie has established professional relationships with people across a variety of human service disciplines throughout Vermont. She joined Howard Center in 1994 as a program manager in Developmental Services and acted in a number of capacities before accepting the role as the Director of Children and Family Services in

  • 2006. It was during this period that Cathie helped to establish Safety Connection and other

innovative programs that rely on successful community collaborations to provide enhanced independent living opportunities for adults with disabilities.

Jamie McKenzie, RN UVMHHH

The University of Vermont Health Network - Home Health & Hospice in Colchester has utilized telemonitoring technology to assess, triage and treat patients for nearly 15 years. The program continues to evolve during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is bringing the technology and other eHealth options to more patients and families than ever before. Jaimie McKenzie, RN, BSN, Telemonitor Nurse Coordinator, joined the Home Health & Hospice team as a nurse case manager 16 years ago. During her time making in-home visits, McKenzie came to appreciate the benefits telemonitoring provided for patients and families — not only as a second set of eyes and ears on patients in between home visits, but also as an important patient education tool. About five years ago, McKenzie transitioned from in-home field work to the Telemonitor Nurse Coordinator role with goals of increasing utilization and increasing patient and field clinician engagement. These goals have been realized in that the average daily census has more than doubled along with increased referrals directly from field clinicians.
