CARE PATROL RECOGNIZES HOME HELPERS FOR SERVICE EXCELLENCE

Care Patrol of the Lehigh Valley and Upper Bucks has long partnered with Home Helpers Home Care to refer clients who elect to age in place with home care, over a move to a senior living community.   Maggie Dominici, Regional Manager for Home Helpers, has established a strong working relationship with Care Patrol’s owner Mary Ann Pickel.   Over the years, Home Helpers earned the trust of Care Patrol by consistently delivering a remarkable customer service experience for Care Patrol’s many referrals.  Care Patrol formalized the relationship by awarding Home Helpers the 2023 Gold Standard certification for excellent care and support to its clients.  We are very grateful for this honor, and look forward to continued collaboration with Care Patrol.

The staff of Home Helpers Home Care of BuxMont and the Lehigh Valley were thrilled to participate in the Adopt a Family program with For Pete’s Sake Cancer Respite Foundation https://takeabreakfromcancer.org/. For young families going through the painful cancer journey, finances are tight, and everyday seems overwhelming, especially during the holidays. This year, we adopted a family in the Lehigh Valley and created a special Christmas for three young children and a single mom. We hope this makes life a little easier for this family, and brings joy during a difficult time. Pictured above are Lindsay Lerch and Patti Soisson, who were gathering the gifts for delivery today.

For those live-in caregivers on shift with their clients who could not attend, our on-call caregivers delivered to them.

Our client, DM, was escorted to the office with his caregivers and enjoyed lunch and the visit. His family was delighted to receive the photo and so happy to see his success.

10 Warning Signs Presentation to Northampton Co. Area Agency on Aging for Citizens Advisory Council members

On May 10th, 2022, Maggie Dominici, Home Helpers’ Regional Manager for the Leigh Valley, presented an education program entitled “10 Warning Signs” to the Northampton Co. Area Agency on Aging for Citizens Advisory Council members.

Kellie A. Butsack, Associate Director Programs, Alzheimer’s Association Delaware Valley Chapter, had some enthusiastic comments to report.

After the program, two attendees approached Maggie to express interest in having Association programs presented for a local senior’s group they are involved with. A third attendee asked Maggie how to become a volunteer educator with the Association. I will be following up with that person all this week! This is how we expand our reach to more people in our communities who are impacted by Alzheimer’s and dementia.

THANK YOU, Maggie, for representing the Association and moving our mission needle forward! 

Thank you all, for all you do every day… have a great week!
