FirstLight Home Care, an award-winning provider of non-medical home care, announced today it will open a new location in the Coeur d'Alene area in 2019. The office will be owned and operated by local entrepreneurs Matt Zastrow and Brad Leggat and will be the first in the state.

"Matt and Brad are experienced business owners who will represent FirstLight excellently in this new territory," said Jeff Bevis, FirstLight Home Care co-founder and CEO. "Idaho has seen a growing population of retirees over the last decade, and we are eager for this expansion to extend FirstLight's culture of care to meet the growing need for home care services in the area."

The new FirstLight Home Care will serve the greater Coeur d'Alene area, including Spokane Valley, Hayden, Rathdrum, and Post Falls. Qualified caregivers — home health aides and CNAs — interested in FirstLight career opportunities are encouraged to email [email protected].

FirstLight serves seniors, adults with disabilities, new mothers, veterans, those recovering from surgery and other adults in need of assistance. Their caregivers help with many needs – from personal hygiene and household duties, such as cooking, cleaning and running errands, to mobility assistance and dementia care.

Since opening its first franchise location in 2010, FirstLight Home Care has experienced steady growth and is now operating more than 250 locations in 34 states throughout the U.S.
