Our Story Began with One Family’s Journey
After witnessing the gaps in traditional home care, we founded Spring Bloom to do dementia care differently — with expertise, continuity, and genuine human connection.
Our Story
Created to bring families the kind of dementia care we wish we’d had.
When my father developed vascular dementia after a stroke, our family wanted to keep him at home — surrounded by comfort and love. But finding the right care was harder than we ever expected. Agencies rotated caregivers constantly, few had dementia training, and the care felt impersonal. My mother was exhausted, and we all felt alone.
That experience revealed something important: families like ours need caregivers who truly understand dementia and an agency that supports them as professionals.
As a family-owned organization locally founded here in the Triangle, we built Spring Bloom to bring families the kind of care we wish we’d had — compassionate, consistent, and grounded in true expertise. Every caregiver receives layered, ongoing training in Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care™ so they can bring calm, confidence, and dignity to every home we serve.
Our Mission and Philosophy
Guided by values that put people, purpose, and quality at the heart of care
Mission Statement
Our mission is to deliver exceptional dementia care that improves quality of life for clients and peace of mind for families. We do this by investing in caregivers, applying evidence-based practices, and fostering meaningful relationships that bring calm and dignity to every home.
Philosophy
- Dementia care requires specialized understanding, not generic support.
- Great care begins with well-trained, well-supported caregivers.
- Every family’s journey is unique and deserves holistic partnership.
- Technology and systems can enhance, not replace, human connection.
- We measure success through outcomes: stability, joy, and trust.
