Kalamazoo, MI: HomeLife, Inc. of Kalamazoo, with an office in Battle Creek, has announced their ten year anniversary as an organization. Co-Founders and owners Barry Bruns, President and Scott Christ, Vice President reflected that HomeLife started serving individuals with brain injury and mental illness in December of 1996. We have improved many aspects of our organization over the past 10 years, Christ commented.
Through focusing on active treatment, careful measures, and staff training we have improved our programs every year. In our most recent customer survey, eighty percent of family and guardians scored our programs excellent as compared to other providers they have experienced. This endorsement by our customers is important to everyone in our company. It’s a level of satisfaction that only comes with time, focus, and effort, Bruns stated.
HomeLife started with about 12 employees and a few consumers back in 1996. Those days were really tough. You wore a lot of hats: dishwasher, floor scrubber, maintenance person, caregiver, and business owner. If someone called in sick, you filled in regardless of your plans for the day, Bruns stated. Today it’s much different. We have over 100 great employees who do a wonderful job. I’m so impressed with the work they do every day. It’s really something! Bruns stated. We have worked hard to make HomeLife an excellent place to learn and work, and it shows.
According to vice president Scott Christ, the success, stability and progress of the persons we serve is directly related to the dedication of our staff and the many stakeholders that encourage our efforts, including families, case managers, guardians, and various other agencies. We extend a sincere thank you to all of them, and consider it a privilege to celebrate ten years of success.
