Our History
Comforting Home Care by Phoebe evolved over 12 years ago when our founder,
Margaret M. Skibinski, RN, BSN, was moved by her grandmother’s struggles with Alzheimer’s disease. As a medical professional she realized that these heart wrenching situations are so difficult for families, and she envisioned a service organization that truly cared for and treated clients like family, with dignity and compassion. Comforting Home Care by Phoebe’s Director, Tammie Worley, LPN, shares the same compassion as Margie did and had an experience similar to Margie's in caring for a grandmother in her home.
Margie's Personal Story
One evening in the fall of 2002, a Good Samaritan found an elderly woman wandering through the streets of a city, two miles away from her home. Her son was notified, and the woman was brought home to safety. The woman stated she was going to the senior center that she goes to every day.
She thought the bus forgot to pick her up...
The woman was Margaret C. Grider; I was named after her. She's my grandmom and she has Alzheimer's disease. After this situation, our family decided that my grandmom could no longer live alone. I had been a registered nurse for 12 years and was a single mother with four small children when my grandmom came to live with me. Although assisted living facilities are a necessity for some, I knew that it was not the place for my grandmom. I wanted her to keep as much dignity and independence as possible.
With the help of family and professional caregivers, Grandmom was home with us for close to three years. She was there for holidays, family functions and vacations. When it was too difficult to take her with us, we had respite care available, and she was able to be comfortable in her own surroundings.
Eventually, we had to make the difficult decision to put Grandmom on hospice care. However, she was still able to live at home thanks to the resources that were available.
