About HomeWell Care Services

Meet The Owners: Danny and Kit Caldicott

Both Danny and Kit have enjoyed long, successful professional careers. As they looked to explore the next chapter in their lives, they wanted an option to successfully transfer their skills while having a direct, positive impact on the health and welfare of other lives.

Danny was born and raised in Massachusetts, has a BS from Babson College and spent 27 successful years developing long-time partnerships in the branding industry. He applies the same customer-centric approach and ethics when working with our clients and care services staff that made him successful throughout his branding career. Danny is a consummate athlete and has a long history of giving back to the community as a youth soccer coach and faith teacher to young adults. Danny’s strengths are his empathy, patience and leadership.

Kit has enjoyed a 25-year career in the training industry developing and facilitating skills-based programs focused on emotional intelligence and high-performing customer service. Kit’s drive and passion for quality in-home care stems from the countless stories she’s heard from friends in the “sandwich generation” who struggle to find affordable and quality care for their parents and loved ones. Kit experienced the loss of her mom to Parkinson’s disease and lung cancer and values every precious day spent with her as a gift. Kit’s strengths are her positive energy, passion and enthusiasm.

Danny and Kit have been married for 25 years and have three grown children: Matthew, Liza and Liam.

Our Philosophy

Trusted care. True compassion.

Our top priority is your peace-of-mind.

We all function better when we enjoy life more. For most people, this can be achieved through increased activity, reduced stress, better nutrition and basic companionship. As simple as that observation is, it is at the core of what we do. Our primary objective is to bring more enjoyment to the lives of those who find it increasingly difficult to function well on their own. We remove the burden of stress from both the person needing assistance, as well as those who love and care for them. We help people maintain their dignity and their independence. We protect and care for those who are unable to do so themselves. We help people function better. We help people enjoy life more. We do all of this by working as a team to provide reliable and compassionate in-home care that goes so far beyond typical adult care services.

Our Guiding Principles

• Exude integrity in how we work together and conduct ourselves with clients.
• Lead with empathy and anticipate the needs of others.
• Acknowledge the privilege to serve our clients with an unparalleled level of home care while enriching lives, enhancing community relations, and spreading a culture of care.
• Embody a growth mindset and belief that a level of grace and patience with ourselves and others leads to wonderful breakthroughs in personal and professional growth.
• Strive to develop a healthy society by honoring and tapping into the gifts and wisdom of the aged.
• Consistently implement our gifts of humility with the strength of our collective experience.

Our Care Managers and Caregivers

Working together as a team.

Responsive, experienced, reliable, compassionate.

There are many reasons why someone may need at-home care. Whether recovering from an injury, living with a disability or simply growing older, the familiarity and comfort of continuing to live at home can be tremendously important to emotional wellbeing. With our proactive approach to in-home care, our specially trained team of caregivers and Care Managers advocate for both you and your loved ones in order to provide the highest level of comfort, compassion and care through open communication and personalized care management.

Responsive Care Managers

HomeWell assigns each client a dedicated Care Manager whose sole purpose is to ensure the highest level of customized in-home care to meet your needs and your budget. Your Care Manager will initiate a comprehensive needs assessment and create a personalized plan regarding:

• Levels of Care
• Frequency of Care
• Special Programs

Once a plan is in place, your Care Manager will monitor daily care logs and maintain regular contact with everyone involved to ensure each client’s physical and emotional wellbeing. And because life can be unpredictable, your Care Manager can also recommend or make adjustments to your care plan at any time, as needed.

Compassionate & Trustworthy Caregivers

As a home care agency founded by a caregiver, we put the utmost importance on providing at-home caregivers who are knowledgeable, kind, patient and trustworthy. We understand the complexities of the aging process and other variables that can affect the physical and emotional demands of each specific case. Whether we’re providing everyday support or specialized care, we tailor our approach to provide the appropriate level of care and attention. Our Care Managers strive to select the caregivers who best suit each client’s personality and specific care needs. And because we put a high priority on both safety and quality, all HomeWell caregivers are fully screened, pass a stringent national identity and background check, have excellent references, and undergo comprehensive competency testing.

Our care team includes:

• Companions
• Personal support workers
• Homemakers
• Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs)
