In-home Help for Rhode Island Seniors

Lindy-Hop to the Altar

My favorite bedtime story was how my mom and dad met. She was from Warwick and he was a young Navy airman stationed on Gould Island She was serving coffee and donuts at the USO "Buddies" Club when he asked her to dance. They lindy-hopped until, breathless, they headed outside into the cool night air. She swears that, as he showed her photos of his parents and sister back home, she knew she'd just met her husband.

A Sweet Life in Rhode Island

When Dad got out of the Navy, they bought the house in Providence where they raised four kids, three dogs and a cat. The big yard has been the site of pirate battles, Easter egg hunts, sing-a-longs around bonfires and more than one flag football game. That house has survived 7 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren and the sadness of our father's passing last year.

Dealing with Change

Our jobs have spread us kids all over the East Coast. We visit when we can and help out with repairs, and now Mom tells bedtime stories to the great-grandchildren. But we're all worried about her being alone in that big house. She loves it and all the memories. She'd never leave her dog, Vanderbilt, to move to assisted living, but she really needs help with some of the daily tasks that are getting harder for her. How can we help her have a happy ending in her own home?

Inspired by a Personal Experience

It was Paul and Lori Hogan's own personal experience caring for their 100-year-old grandmother in her home that inspired them to launch Home Instead in 1994. They realized many families had the same need for non-medical in-home care and elder companionship that could help seniors live independently at home. The demand for these important services has been so great, that the company's network now has 800 locally owned franchises across North America and around the globe.
