Our Story

Care That Starts with Compassion

EGN Home Care was founded on a simple belief: every person deserves to age with dignity, comfort, and independence — in the place they call home.

Why We Started EGN Home Care

EGN Home Care was born from a deeply personal experience. Our founders watched their own family members struggle to find reliable, compassionate in-home care — caregivers who showed up on time, treated their loved ones with respect, and communicated openly with the family. That experience revealed a gap in the market and a calling.

We started EGN Home Care to be the agency we wished had existed. Every policy, every hiring decision, and every care plan we build reflects that founding purpose: to give families the peace of mind that comes from knowing their loved one is truly cared for.

Our Mission

To Keep Families Together, at Home

Our mission is to provide exceptional, personalized in-home care that empowers seniors and individuals with disabilities to live safely, comfortably, and independently. We serve not just our clients, but their entire families — because when a loved one is well cared for, the whole family breathes easier.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Dignity First

Every client is treated as a whole person — with their own history, preferences, and worth. We never reduce anyone to their diagnosis or limitations.

Reliability

Families count on us. We show up on time, communicate proactively, and follow through on every commitment — no exceptions.

Compassion

We hire caregivers who genuinely care. Warmth, patience, and empathy aren't soft skills — they're the foundation of great care.

Transparency

Clear pricing, honest communication, and no surprises. We believe families deserve to know exactly what they're getting.

Excellence

We hold ourselves to a high standard — in caregiver training, care plan quality, and every interaction with clients and families.

Family Partnership

We work with families, not just for them. Regular updates, open lines of communication, and genuine collaboration are central to how we operate.

Our Caregivers

The EGN Standard: Who We Hire and How We Train

Our caregivers are the heart of EGN Home Care. We are selective, thorough, and uncompromising in who we bring onto our team — because the people we send into your home must be worthy of your trust.

Rigorous Background Checks

Every caregiver undergoes a comprehensive criminal background check, reference verification, and employment history review before joining our team.

Licensed & Certified

All caregivers hold current certifications appropriate to their role — HHA, CNA, LVN, or RN — and maintain continuing education requirements.

Skills Assessment

Before placement, every caregiver completes a hands-on skills evaluation to confirm competency in personal care, safety protocols, and emergency response.

Ongoing Training

Our caregivers receive regular in-service training on dementia care, fall prevention, medication management, and evolving best practices in home care.

Personality & Culture Fit

Technical skills matter — but so does character. We look for caregivers who are patient, warm, and genuinely motivated by helping others.

Supervised & Supported

Our care coordinators conduct regular check-ins and supervisory visits to ensure quality, address concerns, and support our caregivers in the field.
