Our Staff

Elaine and Ron Racine

Elaine and Ron Racine started Senior Comfort Services in 2003 with a goal to make ‘everyday a great day for seniors and their families.’ Personal experiences with family were the major contributing factors in the decision to start their company. Both Elaine and her husband Ron have been involved in family crises that stemmed from elder-related concerns.

In fact, Elaine’s own father suffered an injury from a fall and went through an extensive and lengthy rehabilitation process. They know that a major fear of many seniors is the loss of their independence. The desire to ease this fear is what prompted them to offer their unique selection of in-home care services. They feel that few actions are more rewarding than providing assistance to elderly people.

Nancy interacts with staff, clients, families, the home care community, care facilities, and others as she leads the expansion of services offered by Senior Comfort Services.

Nancy’s knowledge of how the care continuum operates is based on years of hands-on experience. She has worked as a case manager, as an operations manager for a home care agency, a Regional Nurse Manager, and a Clinical Coordinator for a multi-state home care agency. Knowledge, commitment, compassion, and ingenuity are the cornerstones that allow her to thrive in the home care community. At heart, she is truly a “home care” nurse and advocate.

Barney

Barney – It is a widely known fact that pets offer a comforting atmosphere and put a smile on the faces of people of any age. Therapy dogs are evaluated, trained, tested and qualified for visiting with people in their homes, nursing homes, hospitals and many other facilities. Elaine and Ron decided to add a pet to enhance the family atmosphere at Senior Comfort Services for clients, employees and the overall community.

After passing the Canine Good Citizen’s Test, Barney has become the cornerstone of a Therapy Dog Team to visit our clients of Senior Comfort Services. In addition to visiting homes, he will also go to many nursing/assisted living facilities, senior centers, and hospitals. Barney has passed the testing and is registered with Delta Therapy International, and is a volunteer member of the Local “Paws for People” program with Tufts Cummings Veterinary school.
