February 27, 2023 // FranchiseMarketingSolutions.com // Chicago, IL – Senior Helpers® announced the official opening of its North Side, Chicago location to be managed and operated by Katey Brattland. Joining existing Senior Helpers locations in the Chicago area, including a corporate-owned Center of Excellence, the new franchise will serve senior citizens and their families in Lincoln Square, Andersonville, Uptown and Edgewater, and it hopes to bring new jobs to the region over the next year.
Senior Helpers’ professionally trained caregivers will help local seniors continue to enjoy the comfort of their own home despite age-related illnesses and mobility challenges.
“I’m passionate about helping seniors remain safely in their homes as they age and am extremely excited to bring high-quality care and services to those in the community who need it most,” said Brattland. “From personal experience, I know how difficult it can be to care for an elderly loved one. My team is dedicated to making sure every senior has the opportunity to age in place with as few risks as possible, and we look forward to providing these individuals with access to the activities they enjoy – keeping them engaged physically, mentally and socially, and improving their quality of life.”
With degrees in kinesiology and public health, Brattland felt compelled to venture into a business that best utilizes her training and passion for taking care of others. The wide range of specialized care services that Senior Helpers provides, combined with Brattland’s experience and desire to promote the wellbeing of seniors, will help local elderly and their families for years to come. The North Side, Chicago location will be 100% female-owned and with the support of Brattland’s mother, who will serve as the director of operations, the duo and their team look forward to creating lasting relationships in the community.
Senior Helpers caregivers at the North Side, Chicago location 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.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Katey to our team as the newest Senior Helpers franchise owner,” said Peter Ross, chief executive officer, Senior Helpers. “Her healthcare experience, dedication to serving others and commitment to making a meaningful impact in her community will be rewarding for seniors and their families living in the North Side neighborhood and surrounding area.”
The newest Senior Helpers franchise office is located at 5020 N Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60640.
