## Story

O’Neill brings a wealth of experience in hospitality and start-ups to her new role as franchise owner. Her background has equipped her with a deep understanding of delivering exceptional service and building strong, meaningful relationships — skills she is now channeling into the senior care space.

O’Neill aims to provide essential support to seniors who want to age at home and to create meaningful employment opportunities for older adults in the community.

“We’ve had recent experience with older family members needing help to age safely at home, and it has opened my eyes to how difficult it can be on families and on the person needing care to provide support for people to live independently,” said O’Neill. “Additionally, people close to me can’t afford to retire, and I have had a front-row seat to seniors facing ageism in the workforce. The idea of seniors helping other seniors is so powerful. Both sides benefit and it’s such a unique approach to senior care.”

The demand for in-home care for mature populations continues to grow, with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reporting that nearly 70% of retirees will require some form of long-term care.

“We prioritize the best possible care for our seniors, and that means partnering with passionate and hard-working franchisees,” said Seniors Helping Seniors® President Namrata Yocom-Jan. “That’s exactly what we’ve found with Katie as a new franchisee Partner, who is well-equipped to provide unparalleled in-home services to those in need throughout Napa Valley.”
