For Dianne and Bob Cunningham, owning Home Instead Senior Care comes from the heart. Prior to buying the business Dianne worked as a CAREGiver, then utlilized her office and managment skills as Director of Public Relations, Development, and Operations. She currently is the President and owner of Home Instead in Erie County, a title she wears proudly and does not take lightly. Her time as a CAREGiver enabled her to form strong connections and long lasting bonds with the clients, their families, and CAREGivers alike. To Dianne, it's personal.
“I wanted to buy the business I’ve worked for over the past several years because the clients and their families have become part of my heart,” said Dianne. “I am committed to helping others have peace of mind when it comes to their relative’s welfare - I wake up in the middle of the night, worried about a CAREGiver, worried about the health condition of a client and praying for the outcome. I have realized that Home Instead Senior Care is something I believe in.”
Bob is also very passionate about the industry in which he works. He left the auto industry to join his wife after volunteering his time and support to Home Instead Senior Care for two years. He currently holds of the title of owner and CEO, a position as tough and respectable as it sounds. He hopes to "broaden the reach of all our services to all of Erie County, while improving the quality of life for seniors throughout the area". To Bob, it's personal.
