Serving Seniors


We who are in the business of serving the senior market, are faced with a somewhat daunting task. The senior market is different than any other market. Because in many cases it is not just the senior making the decision, but family as well.

The decisions that many families face as parents age can be very difficult. these decisions range from how long should our parents stay in their home, should they stay in their home, what is best for them as well as the rest of the family and even in many times end-of-life decisions.

Burchreek Homecare and Hospice in Ogden has been in business since 2006. The company is truly a business with a heart. They not only serve their customers well and affordably, for families who have seniors that need extra care that they can't always accommodate they offer free respite care.

Respite care is something that gives caregivers a break. For example, if a spouse or a family member just needs a couple hours to go to their own doctors appointment or take care of the child or just to get away, that is respite care. Since 2010 Burchcreek has been offering free respite care to citizens in Davis, Weber and Morgan counties. This service is offered through the local senior centers and is free of charge, to any one who has a need.

While many times we give away free media time on television and radio simply because it serves our listeners and viewers better, we also appreciate those who give back or even pay it forward. We absolutely believe in Burchcreek Homecare and Hospice. They are truly a company with a mission to serve no matter what the cost. We salute them.
