About Us
Meet Our Home Care Team

Brad & Samantha Wolfe, Owners

Matt Cogdill - Vice President
Prior to joining Home Instead, I served as a Vice President with Lexington Medical Center in Lexington, South Carolina. My wife, Alyssa, currently works as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with Prisma Health in Columbia. We were both raised in Lexington and feel called to serve the people of the Midlands. After many years working in hospital settings, we both felt the need to work with seniors and loved ones in a way that honors not just our clients, their families, but also our amazing CAREGivers.

Sarah Taylor - Human Resources Manager
I am a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana who fell in love with the Columbia area when my family moved here in 2019. After joining Home Instead, I realized what an honor and opportunity I had to serve the aging adults in this community. As a child and teenager, I gravitated each Sunday at church to the elderly for a hug, a smile, and to find out how their week had gone. Joining the Home Instead Team felt like a perfect fit for me. In my free time I love to cook a good Gumbo or Jambalaya and spend time with my husband and children on the Lake.

Amberle Nickas - Human Resources Coordinator
As the HR Coordinator here at Home Instead I recruit, interview, and hire the CAREGivers who work for us. I’m originally from Pennsylvania but have lived here in South Carolina for the past 3 years. During the summers in college, I worked at a camp for adults and kids with varying disabilities and I loved caring for the people I met there. So, after college I became a certified nursing assistant and worked in a skilled nursing facility for almost 2 years before going back to school. I love working on finding the best CAREGivers for our clients! My passions include science and history and I love reading, listening to podcasts, and making art.

Tiffany Milhouse -Special Projects Coordinator
Tiffany has worked in all facets of healthcare from being a CNA to helping build and run memory care units. She joined Home Instead in 2022 and enjoys spending time with all of the clients and ensuring that they are getting the highest level of care to add to their quality of life with their care team. Her goal is to make sure that with their care team, that their limitations do not limit them. In her spare time her and her husband are busy raising their 5 children on their small family farm, going fishing, spending time at church, watching football, boating on Lake Murray or just a quiet evening with family. She is also completing her Bachelors degree in Business Administration.

China Boozer - Service Coordinator
China joined the Home Instead team in 2022 after working in Florence, SC at a local hospital as an Office Coordinator and Surgical Technician.

Brittany Barfield - Service Coordinator
I joined the team in 2023 after working previously with another home care provider in Columbia, SC as the ICS Manager. I have over 10 years of experience in the medical field ranging from PCA, EMS, and Home Care. I am passionate about helping others and making sure the needs of those she services are met. At Home Instead, I serve as our Staffing Coordinator. As an imperative part of the team, I meet with new Care Givers to pair them with the clients that would be a best fit.
