“Something that I felt that I needed to do, I mean, I was missing something. I enjoy helping people. I was in the Coast Guard for a while, and it was something I liked to do. I choose to work for (The Caring For Family of Companies) because it’s an opportunity to make a difference in people’s lives. It makes me feel better. I’ve seen a lot of people that have needed help and wouldn’t ask for it – I’ve been that way myself. At the end of the day, it makes a difference.”
—Tom, Caregiver
In the vast tapestry of life, Caregivers are like the vibrant threads that weave compassion, support, and love into the lives of those they serve. Each Caregiver comes with a unique background, their own story to tell, and a heart filled with a desire to make a difference. Today, we are thrilled to introduce you to Tom, a dedicated Caregiver at our Caring For Family of Companies.
