How will I know my loved one is in good hands?

Are the Care Managers Employees or Contractors?

We are a family of senior care supporters, and work with each other in all of our daily activities.  Because of this, we are proud to have our team as employees of Granddaughters and under our corporate umbrella.

The team is comprised of a variety of experience, backgrounds, and life history.  What is consistent, is the passion that each person has to provide support to this community and to make a difference in the way we approach Elder care. We employ HCA’s, PCA’s, retires LPN’s, retired RN’s, Recreation Therapists, medical students and  people with direct life experience.  Our role is to understand the individual, the family and the support required and partner the right Care Manager with him/her or them.
