Our Story
Welcome to Recare!
Our names are Baila Dalfin (left) and Nechama Shpigelman (right), and we are reshaping the future of aging with dementia from our hometown in Brooklyn, NY. From a young age, we were raised with the value of honoring our elders and this deeply ingrained principle drives our commitment to delivering a trusted and high-quality service for older adults.
When the Covid-19 pandemic led to the isolation of older adults, we recognized the major physical and emotional toll it had on them. Fueled by our deep love and utmost respect for the elders in our lives, we took matters into our own hands and founded a non-profit called Plantogether. We personally organized the delivery of more than 1,000 plants to older adults across NYC, bringing smiles to many faces and making a large impact.
Plantogether brought awareness to a deeper issue and we felt compelled to address it and make a change. Home-bound older adults are being left alone (or with an aide) for hours without anything stimulating for them to do. Leveraging Baila's extensive experience in offering recreational services to over 500 older adults within a nursing facility, and Nechama's acumen in business and accounting, we harnessed our resourcefulness and innate passion to create Recare Home Services.
A Company You Can Trust
We pride ourselves in providing a quality service that is intentionally designed and individualized. Our staff consists of highly trained professionals, including social workers, occupational therapists, and other specialists, who are carefully vetted to ensure they are compassionate, skilled, and trustworthy. We hold our team to the highest standards, only hiring individuals we would feel completely confident entrusting with our own parents or grandparents. While therapeutic recreation has been traditionally associated with nursing facilities and adult day care centers, we firmly believe it is equally vital for older adults with dementia living at home to feel invigorated and engaged!
We look forward to servicing your loved one!
