For more than 14 years I have been a nurse by trade, caring for people in Southwest Missouri who are experiencing a complex, and often times serious illness. My experiences have ignited a passion for building a company focused on improving the lives of those in our community who wish to remain in their home, even as their care needs change. My steadfast desire to be both a client and employee advocate is at the core of who I am. It is my belief a large portion of my purpose in life is to care for others during the times they need it most. My passion, along with the support and encouragement of my husband, has inspired me to build a company and culture focused on removing critical issues and barriers to accessing care at home, while minimizing social isolation. Having the ability to create a comprehensive care plan designed by clients and/or their loved ones and then delivered by a Care Team who feels confident in their ability to provide safe and effective care is what care at home is all about. When it comes to care at home, Veritas Home Care would be honored to care for you.

Making a Difference
“This year has presented many challenges to my aging parents and when an unbelievable event occurred at their home, I was desperate for assistance with their care. My folks were initially reluctant to receiving help but with direct and open conversations it quickly became clear how valuable Veritas was to our ability to survive the last several months. The caregivers were very professional, and the company's leader is one of the most amazing and caring people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I will never forget the peace of mind that came with us inviting Veritas into our lives. I would recommend this company to any family that is in need of adult care, no matter how complex the situation might be.”

“When my parents decided it was a good idea to start receiving some help at home, together we interviewed several companies and easily settled on Veritas. We based our judgement on the interview with not only Amy, the owner of the company, but also one with the recommended care giver. This was the only company that allowed us to interview the actual care giver. It was an easy choice based upon that second interview.Since that day we have seen some declining health. Amy answered her phone no matter when I called. She helped us with a plan to prep my parents to accept the extra hours. Soon after we increased the number of days and hours such that we now have 2 care givers. They are both kind, respectful, generous and thoughtful. They offer companionship,house cleaning, a watchful eye on medicines, and even meal preparations. Eventually we will need nursing care and we hope to stay with Veritas for that as well. FIVE STARS FOR SURE!”

“I was so grateful to meet Amy and her staff. The day we contacted her she immediately came to meet us and help to assess my husbands needs. Staff was wonderful and care was exceptional. I would highly recommend.”
