About Us
We are a nurse-owned and operated company. Why do we want you to know that? Because nurse-owned and operated companies are operated by a nurse and a nurse has knowledge of healthcare. You should want a company who understands elders’ needs and what it takes to provide a service that is not only necessary, but compassionate. A nurse knows about compassion.
Our owner built this business with one thing in mind…provide a service different from all other companies. She use to work for a home care company and was shocked at what she found. There was no compassion! And even worse, the employees were not happy campers. So what did she do? She left that job, because after all, it was not what she envisioned home care to be, and dedicated the next 7 months to putting together a service that is client-friendly as well as employee-friendly. Aging At Home was created from her vision of what home care SHOULD be.
Our employees are all certified workers that is, certified as home health aides and some are even certified nurse’s aides as well. By certified, we don’t just mean they have a piece of paper saying they are certified. They all have completed the minimum 75 hours of training as outlined by the State of Massachusetts, which includes a minimum of 17 hours of skills training. After all, that is what is most important, that they have been taught all of the skills necessary to carefully and confidently care for our clients.
