“I was drawn to Senior Helpers’ quality service and its reputation as the first in the industry to provide specialized caregiver training in Alzheimer’s, Dementia and Parkinson’s disease care,” explains Skelton. “As a team, we are truly proud to carry the company’s torch in Tempe and prove valuable to our community by helping to alleviate the stress associated with caregiving and ensure a better quality of life for local families through personalized in-home senior care.”

Senior Helpers operates with a vision to be the leading home care company in each community it serves. Its caregivers in Tempe are trained to offer the highest level of care possible based on the company’s Senior Gems® Alzheimer’s and Dementia care program. As the gold standard for excellence in personalized in-home senior care, the program was developed in conjunction with nationally recognized dementia care expert Teepa Snow, Positive Approach, LLC.

Local residents will also benefit from the company’s Parkinson’s Care Program, a specialized training program for their caregivers created in conjunction with leading experts from the Parkinson’s Foundation’s Centers of Excellence network.
