We are delighted that you have made the effort to contact us regarding in-home care, and this letter has been written to help you know us better.
My wife Bridget and I were both born and raised in Lansing. We have been married for twenty-five years and are the proud parents of three children, now grown.
Before becoming owners of Comfort Keepers of Lansing in 2001, Bridget was a manager for a Catholic credit union, and I owned and operated several small businesses. These solid business experiences have been invaluable in helping us manage our Comfort Keepers business.
Although we were busy and happy in our careers, our attention was drawn to problems faced by people who needed help with daily living. Bridget had helped to care for family members since she was a child, and eventually she left her employment to care for a relative who had advanced Alzheimer's disease. After taking her into our home, we became aware of the impact this difficult situation had on our entire family and the commitment of time, the work involved, and the daily decisions which had to be made regarding care. At times, we hired agencies to come into our home to provide care and observed their work. We also saw the level of care provided for other relatives residing in nursing homes. These experiences with our own family gave us an overview of the need for care and the level of care currently offered.
With our understanding specific needs of families caring for a loved one, and our strong background in business, we decided to take a huge leap of faith by becoming owners of Comfort Keepers of Lansing. It is our endeavor and firm conviction to put true quality into our home care. Our mission is to provide the best care possible, blending professionalism with compassion and understanding. We are working together to make a difference in the lives of those who come to us, and it is our sincere hope that we will be a strong source of support and care for those who are facing the need for highest quality care. We consider it our honor to be able to serve you with integrity, forthrightness, honesty, and in the manner we would want for a loved one of our own.
Sincerely yours,
Thomas J. LaMacchia
Owner- Comfort Keepers of Lansing
