The Auspice Team
Eddie Davis, CEO and Founder
Eddie has over 10 years of experience working with the aging community. He began his journey in senior care as an Alzheimer Care Director. He had the opportunity to see many individuals flourish in this environment and observed the relief of the family members who witnessed their loved ones experience these challenges.
When his wife’s grandmother began to face challenges at home, the family congregated to help meet her needs. The discovery of not knowing how to care for her and being completely unaware of available resources, lead Eddie to the desire to help others in similar situations. Although Grandma chose to move out of her home, Eddie recognized the need for support to individuals to remain safely in their home environments and to assist individuals with options available to them. His personal experience transitioned Eddie into working with a local in home care agency, and eventually opening his own home care company.
Eddie received his degree in Social Work from CSU, Fresno in 1999. His Central Valley experience in social work includes: Alzheimer’s/Dementia Care, Senior Care, In-Home Care, case management, community education, and program development. Eddie also obtained an Executive Masters in Business Administration with an emphasis in International Marketing and Consulting from National University in 2005, earning Honors on his thesis. He founded Auspice Home Care Solutions, LLC with the mission of assisting seniors by providing them with resources to have an active, safe, and promising life at home.
"The most rewarding part of this profession is to inform and educate our community of the choices and opportunities they have in receiving services in their current environment, specific to their individual needs and what best fits their schedule."
Tish
Davis - CFO
Tish's personal experience with a loved one validated why she has such pride in the mission of Auspice. She holds vivid memories of visiting her grandmother for Sunday night dinners. Her family recognized that grandma wasn't herself and couldn't live at home independently anymore. The family was unaware on how to handle the situation. They tried home care but could not afford the hourly minimums required weekly. Eventually, the family hired private care because it was cost effective however, service was not dependable. This experience threw them into a crisis. Not feeling there were any more options to keep grandma at home, they placed her at a board and care home.
Tish's husband, Eddie Davis, CEO of Auspice, heard similar stories from families he worked with as an Alzheimer Care Director. With her own challenges and what Eddie had observed, they decided to take their knowledge and experiences and apply them to the core training of each employee at Auspice.
"We take pride in offering families flexibility with services and cost effectiveness. I would never want anyone to have to go through what my family had to endure. I love going to work every day knowing that I will be able to help families through a crisis and ensure they will be treated as our own family."
