LONGVIEW, Texas—Always Best Care Senior Services, a senior care franchise system in the United States, announced the opening of a new franchise location in Longview, Texas. The new location will be managed by franchisee Keith Carter, who seeks to provide senior care services, including skilled home health, non-medical in-home care and senior living referral services to the aging population in Longview.
"Keith's extensive background in medical care, combined with his experience as a franchisee in Louisiana, will bring tremendous value to our Longview franchise,” said Jake Brown, president and CEO of Always Best Care. “I am confident that our senior community in Longview is in excellent hands with Keith at the helm."
"Anyone with an aging loved one can tell you how important senior care services can be for our senior population as they continue to live and thrive independently," Carter said. "As the owner of an office in Shreveport, I have seen the great care and work our caregivers provide and the positive impact they make in the lives of the hundreds of clients we serve every day. I could not be prouder to be bringing this valuable and much needed service to the Longview community."
Carter has worked in the medical space in pre-hospital, acute care and post-acute care environments for more than 30 years. Carter has medical training and is a licensed paramedic and certified medical transport executive. He said that his background in medical care inspired him to join the Always Best Care System in 2015, with the opening of the Shreveport, Louisiana facility. Carter aims to ensure his facilities and caregivers are well-prepared and trained to provide quality homecare services.
"Having worked in the Always Best Care system for close to 10 years now, I have seen and understand the difference our services can make in the lives of the seniors in our care,” Carter said. “It's important to me to advocate for their needs and provide the assistance they need on a daily basis. My aim is to uphold the exceptional standards of Always Best Care, ensuring that our senior community receives the dedicated service and attention they truly deserve."
