In 2005, Carey Lindeman set out to change the look of in-home care. She saw a clear need to provide a substantially higher level of care. And she wanted to forge strong, long-term relationships between caregivers and their elderly clients.

Rather than develop a care “checklist” for a client and sending off whichever staff member was available, Carey envisioned a service model that looked more like one she would choose for herself. She saw a need for a service where clients are interviewed about their needs and a situation analysis is done, then a caregiver is carefully matched to suit those needs as well as the client’s style. Carey Lindeman is committed to these principles:

• Providing highly skilled caregivers with deep experience
• Maintaining the continuity the caregiver-client relationship
• Hiring caregivers who are willing and able to make an emotional investment in developing relationships with their clients
• Maintaining corporate autonomy to ensure enduring quality of service (no franchise opportunities here!)

Today, Promise Care delivers all of this and more. The company has grown significantly in the first few years due to a high rate of client retention and referrals. Welcome Home Care for elder care has been in place since 2005. In 2007, Promise Care added its Welcome Baby Care to help parents of newborns make the most of their time with their babies.
