As we hit the 45-year mark, Homewatch CareGivers stands tall as the premier example of what compassionate in-home care should look like. Our path from a small family venture to a global franchise speaks volumes about the power of genuine care and an unwavering dedication to those we serve.
How It All Began: A Vision Rooted in Personal Experience
Back in 1980, Paul Sauer set out to shake things up in the world of in-home care. It wasn't just a business idea - it was personal. Watching his own mother age, Paul saw firsthand the pressing need for quality, personalized care that let seniors keep their independence and dignity intact. This deeply personal insight became the bedrock of Homewatch CareGivers.
Starting small in Denver, Colorado, word quickly spread about our compassionate approach and sky-high standards of care. The Sauer family's commitment to preserving clients' dignity, independence, and safety struck a chord with the community, paving the way for remarkable growth.
Listen as Paul shares his thoughts on well wishes as Homewatch CareGivers celebrates this incredible milestone.
