Meet the Rock Hill Office

Over the past 10 years we have built an exceptional team of care professionals, each committed to remaining at the forefront of the in-home care industry through our proprietary ongoing training and education programs. At Senior Helpers Rock Hill we believe that getting the best care for your loved ones should not be complicated. The Senior Helpers Rock Hill office opened in 2008 with a passion for helping others and an interest in the growing need for in-home care services. Today, we continue that commitment to delivering the best possible in-home care to seniors in York, Chester, Kershaw and Lancaster counties.

Our History

Our History

Senior Helpers of Rock Hill was proud to join the Senior Helpers system in 2008. Like every other owner, we too are fully-committed to the original goal of providing dependable and affordable in-home care with well-trained caregivers. Nothing is more important to us than being the best available resource for seniors and families in our community.

Native Carolinians Ed and Jim Largen bring over 35 years of combined experience helping families care for loved ones at home. For more than two decades, the Largen family led Med Emporium, a home medical equipment company serving patients with advanced respiratory and neuromuscular conditions across the Carolinas, Georgia, and Virginia. Through that work, they saw firsthand the challenges families face and the difference compassionate, dependable support can make.

That experience is what drew Ed and Jim to Senior Helpers. They are passionate about helping seniors remain safe, comfortable, and independent in their own homes and they understand the peace of mind this brings to families. They also believe that caregivers are the heart of great care. By supporting, valuing, and equipping their team with the right resources, Ed and Jim ensure that every caregiver can deliver the compassion and dedication that truly changes lives.

Today, they are honored to serve seniors and families across Rock Hill, Fort Mill, Indian Land, Lake Wylie, Tega Cay, Lancaster, Gaffney, and surrounding communities providing trusted home care with dignity, compassion, and respect.

Our process

Our process

The first step in the process is a complimentary, initial in-home care assessment with a Senior Helpers consultant.  This assessment can help you understand the true needs of your loved one, and your options. Together we can discuss their needs, our senior care services and determine what’s best for your entire family.

We will cover:

  • Your family's specific goals
  • Your loved one's daily plan design and schedule
  • Pricing and payment methods
  •  Implementation process
  • Ongoing communication and follow-up plan

Meet the Staff

Ed Largen

Ed Largen

Owner

Ed loves spending his free time with his wife, Tempie, and their 3 children, Kinlaw, Cece, and Clyde. More often than not he can be found on a soccer field or softball diamond cheering on his kids. He and his wife both attended UNC Chapel Hill and love watching the Tarheels. Ed and his family enjoy attending church, where he has served as a deacon and led the stewardship campaign. Ed relishes the opportunity to build a locally rooted, family-run business that impacts clients and caregivers alike.

About the Team

We believe that to be successful in improving Home Care it is all about the Team.  We decided early on that our team needed to include individuals who embraced the same beliefs about what home care should be, where it should be headed and believed wholeheartedly, we are enough to make the difference and to make the changes needed.  We decided to build an organization that would enable us to be better connected with our clients and their loved ones.  We also felt it important to focus on how to better support our team of care professionals.  We have developed ways to enhance their training, improving our culture to allow them to feel connected to the office and each other, and create ways to recognize the important work they are doing.

Client Care Managers

Our client care managers take the time to assess and get acquainted with their clients and their families so they can create a customized care plan with a care agenda that works for everyone.  They use the Life Profile tool to identify safety risks, learn the health history and current health status of the client, assess the level and type of care needed.  They will also use our Quality-of-Life Planner to determine activities the client enjoys and goals the client would still like to achieve independently and with assistance.  We believe that it is important to learn as much as we can about the people we care for because we want to create an environment and care agenda where they remain engaged and continue to thrive.

Recruiter

Choosing the right team is very important to us.  Each care professional on our team represents who we are and what we stand for, so our selection process is very important to us. We conduct a thorough nationwide background check and administer a drug test on each person we decide to hire. They must exhibit a compassionate heart, making a difference for our seniors must be important to them, and they must be willing to continue to learn.   Our reference checks are preformed to learn about their work ethic, how they perform in a team environment, and how well they communicate.

When we feel we have the right person we want to get to know them and what is important to them.  This enables us to match them with the right clients and to be able to celebrate any achievements, recognition rewards they earned or anniversaries with things they enjoy and would appreciate.

Each care professional during onboarding is trained in our Center of Excellence where we assess their skills and make sure they are trained and comfortable with DME that will be used during the care of client.  We also offer and encourage each care professional to continue with their training by taking advantage of any of our many training programs.

 

Center of Excellence

Our Center of Excellence is a multi-unit training center that portrays a model of a client’s bedroom, kitchen/dining area and bathroom.  We use the space with care plan examples to train our care professionals on common durable medical equipment used in care (walkers, transfer belts, transfer boards, Hoyer lifts, etc.), spotting safety risks, refresh or train on proper transfers, monitoring common vitals and how to use monitoring sheets, train on common housekeeping tasks, how to track med reminders, stand by assistance, and much more. 

We encourage our Health care provider partners, clients and potential clients to come visit this space and observe a training session.  The center allows us to help care professionals to meet their clients at each stage of their care which can allow the clients to remain with care professionals they have been with and have become comfortable with.

Nurse

We realized that client care support and the proper training and support of our care professionals is equally important in providing the right care with the right people.

Our nurse assesses the ability of each care professional’s level of care they can provide.  The nurse assesses any health or physical restrictions, develops a training plan to equip them with the knowledge and skills needed to be safe and successful with the client.  Our nurse provides this training through the Center of Excellence, on the job, shadowing and through our on-line training modules.

The nurse also assists with client care management for clients needing a high level of care.
