About Us
Our mission is to provide clients with exceptional care and prevent loved ones from going into nursing facilities. We understand the importance of loved ones staying within the comfort of their own homes.
After years of dedication, my mother reached out to me and informed me that her dream was to open up a home care agency of her own. As opposed to continuing working for an agency as she has done for the past 20 years. It was then that 4 Your Peace of Mind, LLC. was established.
The name originated from her loving husband who always held the phrase dear to his heart. “If you don’t have peace of mind, you don’t have anything.” You can have all the luxuries in the world but if you’re not at peace then what value does it truly hold? As for me, my goal is to ensure that my patients live happier, healthier, and longer lives. Carol Baez-CEO
