“While 70% of us will need long-term care after the age of 65, few of us openly discuss care needs and wishes.” – Michele McKenney
McKenney Home Care was created by sisters, Patrice Magrath and Michele McKenney, who relocated to Naples after successful international careers in healthcare, law and business. Their own personal experience of caring for an aging mother inspired them to create a professional private pay agency designed to bring best practices in home health care to Southwest Florida.
