About Our Company
Providence Home By Fir provides quality, compassionate residential home care in Mishawaka, Indiana in an inviting and peaceful home-like atmosphere.
We are a team with a combined medical experience of more than 100 years that led us to conceptualize the new care model. Having a practicing family physician and physical therapists with various experiences in health care, especially in taking care of the elderly, including running a personal care home, have allowed us to have a unique perspective and advantage to identify any problems and create solutions to improve the care of elders in senior living communities.
Our residents can collaborate to create a flexible daily routine that meets individual needs and preferences. There is no predetermined routine, facilitating independence and the ability to pursue individual interests.
The caregivers and residents’ advocates put more direct care hours in the home, allowing a strong bond to form between staff and residents. Deep relationships are the basis for our model of care that will result in dramatic improvements in quality of life and care.
