SYNERGY HomeCare

History

You probably recognize the story, it may be similar to your own or the one you plan to write yourself. It starts with one person, a vision, perseverance and the passion to make a meaningful difference in the lives of many others. In the 1990’s Peter Tourian saw his first business opportunity. He created Synergy Staffing, a medical staffing company, and led it to success. In the process Peter saw something much bigger, more exciting and even more motivating – non-medical home care. It was a much needed service that was underused and little known. Standards were inconsistent, the marketplace was heavily fragmented, yet the need for it was about to explode as tidal waves of baby boomers become senior citizens. In 2001, with meticulous research and planning, Peter introduced SYNERGY HomeCare, a service that offered dependable, professional and affordable in-home care. “I have never believed in hope as a business strategy. I watched what was really happening and I listened to my customers. I was able to successfully innovate when others were happy to offer a ‘take it or leave it’ approach of the same old service in the same old way,” says Tourian. He offered services to those in need, regardless of age.
