Meet Alan and Tamera Mongin: Our Dedicated Owners

Owners Alan and Tamera Mongin are Certified Eden at Home Associates. The Eden philosophy focuses on improving quality of life for elders and their care partners by seeking to eliminate the three plagues of “loneliness, helplessness, and boredom.” Addressing more than just the physical needs of our client benefits the care partners, as well as the care recipient. Bringing this philosophy deep into the culture of the organization is foundational in all we do as owners. The company environment we foster has led many of our caregivers to express that we are different, and the best place they have ever worked.

Tamera's Healthcare Expertise and Community Involvement

Tamera has 14 years’ experience working directly in health care. She has also provided leadership, developed coursework and training programs for volunteers, and served the community as a resource for people experiencing difficult circumstances. She currently serves as an officer on the McHenry County Taskforce on Aging board.

Alan's Technological Innovation and Business Acumen

Alan brings decades of experience as both a CPA and a techy. With Alan’s experience, we are able to leverage leading edge systems to run our business and meet the ever-changing needs of our clients. Because we have industry leading outcome-based information, and use measurements that are common in the healthcare industry, we can collaborate with health care partners more effectively. Additionally, it helps us to put together great caregiver / client matches and efficiently schedule service without getting in the way of providing great care. Afterall, caring for people is our passion and having great systems in place helps us do it with excellence.

Our Commitment to Community Service and Support

As a family, we have long participated in local and international missions, providing help to families in need, and opened our home to children in crisis. Both of us have served as board members to various Christian and non-profit organizations. For both of us day to day ministry comes down to listening, caring, and praying for people in our circle of influence.
