We are passionate as an organization about helping Seniors to experience fullness of life while continuing to live at home. Our Mission is; "To provide with passion the highest quality of help to individuals, which will enable them to live with fullness of life in their own homes.
My wife and I began our agency in December of 2012. We believe there is a great need for the services which we provide. There were other agencies providing the services to our area, however, these agencies had to travel considerable length to provide the service to the rural areas, therefore, it was more expensive than it had to be. We have created a Business model which allows us to provide services not only in Plymouth County, but also in the surrounding rural communities. Our model will be used to meet the needs of Seniors throughout our State. The Senior population in Iowa will continue to increase for the next 20 years, the need will be great and we are trying to be prepared for that need as it continues to grow. It is our goal to provide the best quality of care at the most reasonable rate possible. I take great pride in every aspect of what we do as a business, including hiring. We currently employ 14 part time staff.
I am applying for the contest because I truly want to keep our services affordable. A need has been brought to my attention, through many requests, for wheelchair transportation. If I were to win the dream competition, I would apply the money toward the purchase of a wheelchair accessible van which would allow us to provide that additional service, not only to our clients, but also to local nursing homes and assisted living communities which have called us requesting that service.
Here is a link to the van that we are interested in purchasing:
