I'd say feeling blessed is an understatement! Today, August 1st, 2025, our family-owned, veteran-founded, locally operated business is 40 YEARS OLD!

On August 1st, 1985, we opened our door for the first time with just one employee to provide Personal Care, Home Health, and Hospice services. Fast forward to today, the team has grown to 240 employees. Operating from three offices located in South Boston, South Hill, and Lynchburg, we continue to provide the same high-level home care services across 13 counties in Southside/South Central Virginia.

To our staff - You guys are the reason why we've made it this far! It takes a FULL TEAM of Nurses, Therapists, Admins, Social Workers, etc. to truly care for our patients within all of our communities.

To our patients - We are deeply grateful for you allowing our team to come into your homes to provide care. Thank you for trusting us with your Personal Care, Skilled Home Health, or Hospice needs.

We have gathered up some photos over the years and have included them within the post. Even though we can't show you all the in-home specifics of care, we can show you some of the staff who have helped us along the way, as well as our continued building and technological updates.

Current and previous staff that would like to share their favorite pictures and memories at 1st Care, feel free to share within the comments! Here's to another 40 Years! 🥳

Did you know walking just 20 minutes a day can boost mood, improve sleep, and support healthy aging?

Caring for an aging loved one at home? Here’s one simple way to support their safety and independence:

→ Use night lights in hallways and bathrooms.

As we age, changes in vision and balance can increase fall risk — especially at night. A small plug-in light can make a BIG difference in confidence and mobility after dark. 🌙

✅ Bonus Tip: Place non-slip rugs in the bathroom and secure cords out of walking paths.

Because a safe home is a healing home.
