Empowering Safer Aging and Sustainable Caregiving
For more than 30 years, Consuela Marshall, OT, CHAT, CAPS, CDP, CGCP, has helped older adults and caregivers stay safe, independent, and confident at home. Through Finding Foothold LLC, she provides professional speaking, consulting, and training services that transform prevention knowledge into practical action.
Her work blends clinical insight with compassion—helping older adults remain in their homes safely and independently for as long as possible. She also equips family caregivers with the education and strategies they need to prevent burnout and injury, work more efficiently, and support loved ones living with physical or cognitive changes, including dementia.
Workshops & Webinars for Family Caregivers.
(Finding A Foothold Foundation focuses on community outreach to underserved communities in the greater Baton Rouge area. Finding Foothold LLC extends these services to families and organizations throughout Louisiana and beyond.)
Caring for an aging loved one can feel overwhelming, especially when their needs begin to change.
Finding Foothold LLC offers live and virtual workshops to help family caregivers gain confidence, protect their own health, and support loved ones safely at home.
Each session turns complex caregiving challenges into practical, realistic steps — from learning safe ways to assist with bathing or transfers to recognizing when a home or care plan needs to be adapted.
Our two-part caregiver sessions provide a supportive space to ask questions, learn hands-on strategies, and connect with others who understand what you’re facing.

For Healthcare & Academic Professionals
Occupational therapy plays a vital role in helping older adults remain independent and preventing caregiver injury—yet many professionals (including physicians, surgeons) and students don’t encounter these topics until after a fall or crisis has occurred.
Through Finding Foothold LLC, Consuela Marshall, OT, CHAT, CAPS, CDP, CGCP, partners with healthcare providers, university programs, and senior-care teams to strengthen awareness and early intervention skills.
She helps medical professionals, social service providers, and students recognize when to recommend OT services, integrate fall-prevention and caregiver-safety education into care planning, and understand the environmental and behavioral factors that influence independence and recovery.
