Innovation. Family Tree’s parent company, Genova Health, has partnered with the TMC Innovation Institute to revolutionize the way health is managed in the home for older adults.
“It’s time we equip frontline workers with the support they need to drive drastically better health outcomes.”
-- Alex Bonetti
Owners Alex Bonetti and Daniel Gottschalk are each driven by deeply personal experiences in managing healthcare. They’re passionate about helping others and improving the home care industry.
Motivated by his grandmother’s struggles with Alzheimer’s disease, Alex founded Family Tree In-Home Care to raise the standard of excellence in home care. Since our humble beginnings in Alex’s apartment, Family Tree has grown into the most trusted provider of home care services in communities across multiple cities.
Daniel’s grandmother relied on nurses and caregivers during her battle with dementia, and while in college, he personally served as a caregiver for a beloved professor. When Daniel set out to reimagine the way health is managed in the home, it didn’t take long for him to recognize Alex’s success with Family Tree.
A partnership was born, and the pair co-founded Genova Health, Family Tree’s parent company, to help keep older adults safer, happier, and healthier in the place they choose to age – their home. To learn more about Genova Health, click here.
