Read our story and learn more about our home care company in Arbor, MI and the surrounding areas
Kris Clum, a registered home nurse, founded Comfort Keepers in 1998. Kris cared for patients who required more than just medical attention on a regular basis. She noticed that her clients frequently valued companionship and asked for small favors to improve their quality of life. Because of her position, Kris was unable to fulfill their simple requests, whether it was to do laundry, assist with transportation, or simply spend time working on a puzzle.
Kris recognized the emotional struggles of senior patients and saw an opportunity to help. She wanted to provide a solution, but the first step was to pick a name. She brainstormed with her husband, Jerry, and their young children to find a phrase that captured the emotion and sentiment of their future business. Ultimately, their daughter suggested “Comfort Keepers” based on the company’s goal: to keep clients comfortably within their own homes as an alternative to expensive nursing facilities. And the Comfort Keepers home care company was born!
The Comfort Keepers Effect
Kris’s expertise and passion have allowed the home care company to flourish from an American dream to 700+ locations worldwide.
Today, Comfort Keepers is available in 12 countries through independently owned and operated locations that make a difference in the lives of seniors and adults with disabilities in their community.
Despite the home care company's growing size, we are as committed to quality as when Kris started the organization over twenty years ago. We achieve our high standards by recruiting the best talent, cultivating a compassionate culture, and identifying ways to leverage new technology that improves our clients’ lives.
Our quality and dedication to our mission are honored by industry leaders. We are consistently recognized as a leader in senior home care.
