History
about usThe Arts in Caring Council was founded by Lyndal Cole and Terri Holland owners and operators of Home Caregivers Home Health. Their experience in the healthcare industry goes back to 2001 when they began as a personal care agency. Just over five years later, they received their Medicare and Medicaid certification and began offering skilled nursing services. Since then, the company has grown nearly 700% - largely due to a Terri's and Lyndal's unique approach to community involvement. The Arts in Caring Council is the result of their combined experience and passion for healthcare and the arts in addition to a distaste for how the healthcare system operates currently in our society. It is Lyndal and Terri's dream to humanize medicine and transform the healthcare experience for everyone through the arts. For more information about Home Caregivers visit www.home-caregivers.com.
