Our Founders’ Story
How did they build a successful homecare business?
John DeHart and Ken Sim, Nurse Next Door Co-Founders saw a business opportunity when Ken’s pregnant wife had to go on emergency bed rest.
By doing more research into the homecare industry, John and Ken found that the homecare industry had a somber image with sterile businesses that only provided task-based responsibilities. The duo knew that they could create something better, hence the creation of Nurse Next Door in 2001.
