GUIDING YOUR CARE JOURNEY- FOUNDER STORY
Meet Stephanie Schiffbauer, BSN, RN
Stephanie Schiffbauer, BSN, RN, brings nearly 20 years of nursing, clinical leadership, and healthcare operations experience to her work. Throughout her career, she has supported patients and families through high-stakes medical situations, helped lead quality improvement efforts, guided clinical teams, and worked across complex healthcare systems where details matter and clarity can make all the difference.
But the foundation of her work is not only professional. It is deeply personal.
Stephanie’s family story has shaped the way she understands care, advocacy, and support. Her brother, Mike, lives with autism and has faced many life challenges. Growing up with that experience, and continuing to witness the realities her family has navigated, gave Stephanie a lasting understanding of how deeply care impacts an entire family. It taught her that support is not only about treatment plans. It is about dignity, patience, advocacy, education, and helping people feel seen during difficult moments.
Those experiences helped shape the heart of her business and inspired the MIKE Framework, a service philosophy rooted in compassionate, individualized guidance.
Today, Stephanie combines her clinical expertise, leadership experience, and personal understanding to help families navigate healthcare with more clarity, confidence, and peace of mind.
We offer personalized nursing guidance, advocacy, and comprehensive care coordination. What sets us apart is our commitment to clarity and compassion, ensuring families feel supported throughout their healthcare journey. Our team is recognized for excellence in patient advocacy.
We specialize in care navigation to empower families, ensuring informed decisions and safer care experiences for all involved.
Why she created this business
Schiffbauer Care Navigation was created to help bridge the gap between healthcare systems and the real needs of patients and families.
Stephanie recognized that many people leave appointments, hospitalizations, and major diagnoses with unanswered questions, unclear next steps, and a deep sense of overwhelm. Families are often left trying to coordinate care, understand medical information, advocate for loved ones, and make important decisions without enough support.
She created this business to change that.
Her goal is to provide calm, knowledgeable guidance so families feel less alone, less confused, and more confident in the path ahead.
