Home Instead Senior Care, which provides non-medical, in-home services to seniors, announced that it has transferred the ownership of the Northern Westchester and Putnam County territory to Brian Trainor. The office is in Carmel, and Trainor plans to open as second location in the next few months.

Trainor, who lives in Yorktown Heights, owns and operates the company’s Southern Westchester franchise, which has an office in White Plains. “Due to the growth of our senior population, the demand has escalated, and there’s a lot of seniors in Northern Westchester and Putnam County that can benefit form the services we provide,� he said.

His company provides services designed to help senior citizens who require assistance with chores and driving can remain in their homes. The hourly rate is $19.50. The company also provides round-the-clock live-in assistance.

“We provide companionship, meal prep, housekeeping, laundry… incidental transportation and help with errands and medications, “ he said. We want to keep it affordable so that the seniors can remail home safe and independent. So by providing some of these services… it allows them to remain home independent, and that’s really what all the seniors and older adults really want to do.â€?
