What mission matters to you?
Driven by a mission to help seniors age in place with dignity, Weiss says it’s important to him to help home care businesses grow. This, he explains, is rooted in a belief that our elders deserve essential care and should be able to access it from the comfort and familiarity of their own homes.
“They are the people who raised us and set the tone for the generations (now) in power,” he says, “and now I don’t just want to cast them aside and forget about them when they require help.”
How did you get started in the home care industry?
Weiss’s professional experience with home care dates back to 2005, when he and a business partner entered the healthcare industry in directorial roles. His company was focused on helping elders by providing essential services, including cooking, cleaning, and even running errands for them.
“It was such a rewarding thing since I went to sleep knowing that I have helped hundreds and thousands of people in (the) last 15 to 16 years,” he says.
