Believe it or not, our story begins when our CEO Samanta (Sam), a hospice registered nurse, was challenged by her husband, Caleb, to "Do something about it!"
Working as a hospice nurse caring for the elderly with terminal illnesses, Sam's greatest frustration was that the caregivers hired by her patients' families had no idea what they were doing. It negatively affected her patients' well-being and comfort. After investigating the matter, she found that Connecticut set no standards for home care agency owners or the caregivers they hired to care for others. As a result, anyone could be employed as a caregiver with little to no experience, training, certification, or supervision, and this was often the case and still is today.
After weeks of complaining about this to her husband, being the no-nonsense type of guy he is, he challenged her to "do something about it." Little did he know that she, in turn, would convince him to leave his engineering career and help her start a home care agency, providing the elderly with high-quality caregivers who would keep them well cared for and safe at home.
Since then, Sam has continued to share her vision with countless other professionals. Convincing them to leave their careers and join her fight to be the Gold Standard for home care helping the elderly age in their home's comfort as they so often prefer.
This agency is independently owned and operated. Your application will go directly to the agency, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of this agency. All inquiries about employment at this agency should be made directly to the agency location, and not to Home Care Evolution Corporate.
