Home Care Assistance St. Louis, a leading international provider of non-medical, in-home senior care, recognizes Mia Hale this month for her compassion and commitment to her client. The client, Pete, was a 56-year-old man with disabilities that lived alone, felt abandoned and disconnected since his mother had recently moved into a skilled nursing facility and did not have any reason to change this attitude. Relying on training she had received in the Balanced Care Method™, Mia was able to re-instill hope and happiness in Pete’s life, primarily because of her diligence and encouragement to reconnect him with the outside world. The initiative that Mia took to make her client’s life better was exceptionally admiral and exemplifies the high standard of quality care we strive for at Home Care Assistance.
