Hire an Independent Caregiver to Provide Personalized Senior Care in Collin County, TX – McKinney, Frisco, Plano, Carrollton

I can remember it like it was yesterday when I received a call from my mom that she had fallen and had to call the paramedics to come and help her. Three weeks later she was diagnosed with a medical condition that would not allow her to live on her own anymore. This is when I knew, it was time to bring my mom to Texas from California to live with us.

For the next three years we took care of my mom. She was home by herself during the day while we were at work. Her physical health began to deteriorate even more, and it had become too risky to leave her alone. As we sought guidance on what to do next, the prevailing recommendation was to place her in a nursing home. This was a difficult decision to make but at the time, we knew this was the best option. She spent her last six years in the nursing home. Now, when I reflect and knowing what I know today I ask myself why I was not aware of these options for in-home care. Mom wanted to be home because it made her happier and we would have preferred this option.

My wife is now experiencing some similar challenges with her mother. Her and her sister are the caregivers, and they rotate caring for her. Ironically, while I was looking for different work opportunities that would be more fulfilling, I found Hallmark Homecare. Hallmark Homecare is a proven home care referral agency dedicated to help families find the support they need to care for their loved ones, while making it more affordable than other options currently available. Learning that there were more options for families in the same situation as me and that I could be part of that solution captured my attention. I spent 30 years in retail supporting a diverse group of employees. I got my energy every day from helping them succeed both personally and professionally. This has not changed; I still get my energy from helping others. The experiences with my mom, my wife's mother and my 30-year career have inspired me to focus on the well-being of our aging seniors. Becoming a Hallmark Homecare Franchise Owner is making all of this possible.

At the core of Hallmark’s mission is the simple belief that seniors, regardless of physical or mental limitations, aspire to live fulling and independent lives. Our goal is to fulfill this belief for as many seniors as possible. What a privilege it is for Hallmark Homecare to support our seniors in their quest to flourish independently by providing safe, affordable care at home!
