Description

Are you a home caregiver or thinking about hiring one? Did you know that caregivers need a wide skill set to meet all the challenges they'll face in the course of a day? From safety hazards, to first aid, to health issues, to personal care, caregivers have to know how to handle all these things and more.

And that’s exactly what Emily and Devon do at Purposefully Home - provide in-home care to older adults who want to age safely in place, including supporting their caregivers with education and training. On this episode of The Purposeful Caregiver Podcast, they will share personal insights into their backgrounds and how they got into the business of helping caregivers train and be educated in taking care of themselves and their loved ones.  

They will touch on topics such as:

• Why they choose careers in occupational and physical therapy.
• The autonomy and rewarding nature of a physical therapy career.
• Having fun working with older adults/seniors.
• Navigating insurance challenges that affect their practice.
• How they met and decided to start a partnership business incorporating their unique skills.
• Adding value to their clients by doing home safety assessments.
