Senior Care & Home Health Statistics

Senior care is on the rise.

The demand for senior care is rising, and it will continue to grow for the next 15 years. After navigating her mother’s home health care before losing her battle to breast cancer, Terri Robbins realized she had an unique ability to care for others. That is why she opened a home health and senior care business to serve Houston, Texas. As an advocate to learn and know more about cancer and treatments during her mother’s illness, Robbins continues today to empower patients and their families to be partners in their own care. One such way is to establish lines of of communication between the patient, their family and the team of healthcare providers. Another example is determining if an extended hospital stay is in the best interest of the patient.
