Nicole Haney was inspired to open an adult day center when her grandfather began struggling with Alzheimer's and her family had a difficult time finding consistent caregivers. "I couldn't set the expectation or the standard of the care that he was receiving, and so I just decided we're going to do the day center and he can come here, and we'll take care of him too," she said.
Haney is the owner of Papa's Place Adult Day Center in Reed City, Michigan, and is a featured speaker at the
Decision Health Private Duty National Conference & Expo, November 12–14, 2023, in Las Vegas. Haney will speak on the topic of "Leadership Primer: Shift Your Mindset, Step Back, and Watch Your Agency Grow."
Haney recently talked with HealthLeaders about the growth strategy at Papa’s Place. Figuring out the services Papa’s Place could consistently provide was a key part of this strategy and as it maintained that consistency, its reputation and business benefited.
