A Letter From Our President… | Elderlink Home Care

Elderlink is celebrating our 30^th anniversary this year. It makes me proud to have been on this journey with Elderlink the past 18 years. Elderlink’s founder Mary Ann Brown, sadly passed away last year. Mary Ann was a visionary. When she opened Elderlink’s doors in 1988, the idea of receiving care in your home was new. Elderlink was the first company opened in the metro area solely to provide non-medical home care services. We began as a small company with a good idea and grew steadily.

When I moved back to Colorado in 1998, I was truly home again. Most of my family lived here and I had been trying to get back to Colorado myself for many years. Shortly after I moved back, I began working for Elderlink and the current owner of Elderlink at the time, Ruth Pelanne. I knew right away, I had found my passion. Elderlink was a perfect fit for me and a couple years later when Ruth was ready to retire, I purchased Elderlink from her. My daughter, Jennifer, began working for the company part time during college and came to join our team full time after graduating from college. Caring for our clients and our caregivers is a labor of love for both of us.

During the ensuing 17 years, Elderlink has grown and thrived. We survived the recession of 2008. When it finally lifted, we came out stronger! We have helped thousands of seniors through-out the metro area achieve their goal of living in their own home as they age. We have also matched thousands of caregivers with clients in need. It is truly an honor to be able to work in this industry and to make a difference in the lives of those we assist. At Elderlink, we strive to be a strong member of our senior community. Through donations, we have a tradition of supporting organizations whose goals and beliefs mirror ours.

I would like to take this occasion to thank each of you for being a part of Elderlink Home Care, Inc. Without the support and effort of all members of our team, we would not have reached this important milestone. Elderlink will forever be indebted to our wonderful caregivers for their contributions and to the seniors who give us the incredible honor of helping them during their time of need. We will continually strive to be a better company in the hopes that we can continue to be a part of your lives. We can’t thank you enough for your belief in us!

Sincerely,

Karen Moorehead – President, Elderlink Home Care, Inc.
