Aging Advocates CNY announced in late July that it had agreed to acquire Senior Home Care Solutions. The deal goes into effect on January 1, 2025.

Senior Home Care Solutions is a non-medical home care provider based in East Syracuse, New York. The company provides guidance and solutions to address aging-related needs to the senior community of New York.

The company offers specific solutions and services available to clients’ unique aging-related needs, including care management, personal care, companion care, care plans, quality of life programs, housing coordination, advanced care planning, end of life services, medication management, transportation and more.

“This is an exciting time for both organizations and the Central New York area,” Ohstrom said in a statement. “By combining our strengths, we can better serve our clients and help more seniors remain in the safety and security of their own homes for as long as possible.”

“This acquisition aligns with our mission to promote dignity and independence for our clients while providing peace of mind for their families,” Aging Advocates founder and CEO Melissa Murphy said in a statement. “We have a great working relationship with Senior Home Care Solutions and deeply respect their service to the community. As our population ages, it’s crucial to maintain quality in-home care providers in Central New York.”

As part of the deal, Aging Advocates will gain 60 employees from Senior Home Care Solutions, including caregivers and an office management team. Sheila Ohstrom, the founder and owner of Senior Home Care Solutions, will stay on as a consultant post-acquisition. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
