Dr. Silverstein\u2019s personal experiences trying to find in-home assistance for her aging father led her to identify a disturbing gap in available health care services.<\/p>\n<p>Co-founder Cline Waddell of Boise, Idaho, decided to join her. Together, they set out to provide a better care alternative for older adults, adults with disabilities, and others who needed extra support and assistance to remain in their homes. Today, our family of franchise owners serves their communities by caring for others in locations across the United States.<\/p>\n<h2>Our Mission<\/h2>\n<p>Unlike a private investment group, Assisting Hands franchises are locally owned and operated family businesses. Those independently owned franchises provide exceptional in-home care to individual clients at scheduled times that range from hourly to 24-hours per day.

Our services support individuals\u2019 choices and preferences as they age comfortably in place in their own homes with dignity and independence.
