San Antonio—Caring Senior Service, a private-duty, non-medical senior homecare services company, announced that it has tapped Jeff Bevis as its new chief operating officer tasked with expanding the company’s franchising opportunities, accelerating its revenue growth and showcasing its proprietary technology.
“I’m excited to return full time to the homecare industry because I still see it as an evolving industry with so many unsolved challenges,” Bevis said. “The industry needs clear, data-driven leaders and I’m convinced my experiences will help Caring Senior Service solve many of the challenges clients, caregivers, team members and business owners face today.”
Bevis has more than 30 years of operational experience and more than 20 years’ experience building successful brands in the homecare industry. He and his son, Devin, founded FirstLight Home Care in 2009 and grew that company into an Inc. 5000 company by its first year of eligibility for the prestigious award. FirstLight made the Inc. 5000 list for a total of six consecutive years.
In November 2020, Bevis parted ways with FirstLight and reopened his consulting practice, working within the health care industry mentoring tech, home health and international companies and franchisor projects.
Bevis said he has known Caring Senior Service CEO and founder Jeff Salter and others on the Caring Senior Service’s leadership team for many years and connected with them in 2021 as a consultant before taking on the COO role this year.
“Jeff has a wealth of leadership and operational experience in the non-medical home care industry that is valuable to Caring Senior Service,” Salter said. “His familiarity in growing homecare companies like ours is unparalleled. The skillset Jeff brings to our table is certain to result in our expedited success.”
Bevis said Caring Senior Service’s infrastructure is solid and its focus on in-home, tablet-based technology is a springboard for growth.
“I look forward to helping Caring Senior Service solve the challenges in communication, recruiting, and training and professional development the homecare industry faces. I’m thrilled to be back in the home care industry building a brand and creating new growth,” he said.
