Hello, I'm Lori Bauer, RN, BSN and I am the proud owner of LIQUID THERAPY LLC!  I have been a Registered Nurse for over 25 years and graduated with a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing from Indiana University of South Bend in 1998.  I have spent most of my career as a full-time labor and delivery nurse, and served in leadership roles as a member of the Indiana Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) for over two decades.  I love being in the home, I even was a homebirth assistant for a local CNM for 9 years!  I am currently a health and wellness infusion nurse, and also a neurology infusion nurse.  Outside of nursing, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends.  Put me on a boat with the sun on my face and my toes in the water, and I'm one happy girl.  I have been married to my high school sweetheart Ryan for 29 years.  He is a Captain on the South Bend Fire Dept. and has served his community for over 25 years.  We have an incredible, sassy red head named Brooklyn who brings us so much joy.  She is also going into the nursing profession!

LIQUID THERAPY LLC was created out of a passion to help people with their health and wellness needs, feel their best, and also keep them out of the ER. 

HERE WE GO!!!  "With God, everything is possible!"  Matthew 19:26

As and Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), board-certified in Family Practice, Carolina’s journey spans over two decades, rooted in a deep sense of calling that intertwines professional expertise with faith in Jesus Christ. Nursing is seen a more than a career-it is a divine mission to serve others, reflecting the compassion and care that defines a solid relationship with God. With a PhD in Nursing from the University of Phoenix, and MSN from Michigan State University, and a BSN from Indiana Wesleyan University, she has built a robust foundation to deliver high-quality care across diverse settings. Her extensive experience as a hospitalist, urgent care provider, emergency department clinician and primary care practitioner has equipped her to address complex patient needs with skill and empathy. A passion for medical missions, and a love of hiking, reading and cherished moments with grandchildren, especially the youngest, enriche3s her purpose, while commitment to fasting and service strengthens her spiritual connection to God.

Emily Lehner RN

Hello! I am Emily and I have been a nurse for 10 years after receiving my degree from IUSB in 2016. I also have a Bachelors in Exercise Science from Ball State, so I guess you could say I have a thing for health. I spent almost a decade in the ICU before deciding to try a new avenue of nursing. I am passionate about helping people improve their health and being proactive about their wellness. 

Besides being a nurse I am wife and mother of two. I homeschool both of my children, tend to our 3 acre homestead and adventure on our 17 acres of woodland. If it is a Granny hobby, I’m all about it! I enjoy being outdoors as much as possible, reading, baking, gardening and thrifting.

I look forward to meeting you!
