Professional Home Care Specialists

What Professional Home Care Specialists does

Professional Home Care Specialists, LLC is a privately held, Maine-domiciled non-medical home care provider founded in 2017 and headquartered at 9 Industrial Street, Suite 3 in Presque Isle. The company delivers two core service lines — Personal Care Service (assistance with activities of daily living) and Homemaking Service (household task support) — to seniors, people with physical disabilities, people with developmental disabilities, and individuals recovering from surgery, injury, or illness. It also explicitly markets home care to veterans throughout the state of Maine. The service area has grown from Aroostook County to the entire state of Maine, and the company accepts private pay, insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare, with a Square-powered online payment link supporting direct client billing.

The business is fundamentally a labor-based services operation rather than a technology platform. Its workforce is described as handpicked certified nursing assistants, direct support personnel, and personal support specialists, and the founder's 20-plus years of nursing home and home care agency experience is positioned as a core credibility asset. A differentiated family-member-as-caregiver program allows relatives of clients to be hired as paid caregivers, which functions as both a client acquisition mechanism and a workforce-sourcing channel. The company operates a sales-led go-to-market model with intake via phone ((207) 762-5486), email, and the company website, and is actively recruiting caregivers statewide with in-house training. Headcount is reported in the 11-50 range, there are no disclosed funding rounds, no institutional investors, no parent company, and no M&A activity on record, indicating an owner-operated, organically financed small business.
