“We are proud to be part of the Libertyville area's healthcare services, and we look forward to continuing our superior care to help patients with conditions that prevent them from engaging in more active lifestyles, as well as patients discharged from the hospital that may require some home care assistance,” said Jeannine R. Mattson, PT, MAT and president of Assisting Hands Libertyville.

One of the aspects of Assisting Hands Libertyville that makes it unique is that as a licensed physical therapist, Jeannine has medical training that allows her to set training standards for her caregiver team members. This includes advanced training in CPR, first aid and fall prevention not to mention knowledge of specialized disease processes and how they may affect clients.

“Jeannine will be able to offer home aide services in an underserved part of Chicagoland, and I am pleased that she has become a member of our growing Chicago area franchise team,” said Richard Ueberfluss, Assisting Hands' regional franchisor.
