Local Family Brings Home Helpers and Direct Link to Hudson Valley

ALBANY, N.Y. - April 2, 2018 - PRLog -- Shagufta Nasir is no stranger to caregiving. In fact, 11 years ago, when her mother passed away, Shagufta moved her family from Germany to New York to help care for her father and her brother, who has Down's Syndrome. Now Shagufta and her two daughters – Sadra and Yusra Qayyum – are pleased to announce the grand opening of their new caregiving business, Home Helpers and Direct Link of Hudson Valley.

Home Helpers is the nation's leading franchise specializing in comprehensive home care for seniors, new mothers and individuals needing recuperative and continuing assistance. Home Helpers also offers Direct Link, its proprietary line of 24/7 medical alert systems, including a fall sensor with GPS locator and an automated medication dispenser. Home Helpers and Direct Link of Hudson Valley serves: Albany, East Greenbush, Hudson, Kingston and the surrounding areas.

"We found out about Home Helpers about three years ago, when my grandfather had a stroke. We are a close family and we've always cared for each other, but, when that happened, we didn't know what to do and we needed help. Working with Home Helpers to give my grandfather the care he needed was a life-changing experience. We were all so relieved to have someone to turn to," Sadra said. "That's what got the wheels turning on opening our own franchise."

"We truly believe in the power of Home Helpers and the services we provide. Home Helpers made a huge difference for our family and now we're looking forward to helping other families care for their loved ones."

Home Helpers and Direct Link of Hudson Valley offers free in-home consultations and works with each client to create a flexible, affordable care plan based on a person's individual needs. Services offered include respite care, meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, companionship, transportation and more.

Home Helpers and Direct Link specializes in helping families care for their loved ones so they can focus on spending quality time together – not just being full-time caregivers.

"Home Helpers, especially with Direct Link, is an awesome franchise and we are thrilled to bring the services to this community. We know what it takes to provide top-notch care and we have high expectations of our caregivers.
