About Us

The owners of Aging Allies have been providing local seniors and families with education, guidance, and support services for many years. Cindy Brown started in the home healthcare business in 1997. Little did she know it would be the most rewarding career she had. Her experience has helped many families across the country. Her philosophy is that everyone will require assistance at some point during the aging process.

Cindy embraces that we want to remain independent and in our own homes. The respect and dignity of our seniors are the most important part of this planning process. Cindy has not only assisted families and seniors but is also part of the “sandwich” generation. She is trying to raise her own family while coordinating care for her grandmother and mother. 

Cindy’s grandmother inspired her to continue her career. As stressful and complicated caregiving can be, Cindy was going to pursue other options. When she made this known, her grandmother made a statement that Cindy still relives every day. She said, “Why would you do that when you are helping so many people?” Cindy slept on that statement, and ever since that day, she made a commitment to continue her journey of assisting caregivers, giving 150% of her effort.

Cindy has over 20 years of direct experience focusing on the needs of older adults, caregivers, and family members. She has helped numerous families with the highest standards for providing comprehensive care and services. 

She has a bachelor's in Social Work and earned her case management certificate at Boston University. She is a Qualified Dementia Care Specialist and Provider and a Professional Guardian. Cindy’s past work experiences with other companies were as a Vice President, Administrator, and Finance Manager for a Nurse Registry, a Home Health Agency, and Care Management companies.  

Cindy’s partner and son, Don Starr, was trying to determine his own career path when he was brought into one of the companies where Cindy worked. He was the head of finance, including billing and accounts receivable. He has been in home care since 2004, assisting with submitting insurance claims, advocating for patients and families for the benefits they desperately deserve, and managing the billable hours of all services. He is dedicated to the same philosophy of family values.

Family values are the key to how we operate. Our clients, employees, and contractors are family. Everyone is treated professionally, with love in their heart, to achieve our mission and goals. We want you to become part of that family.

In Office Staff

Care Managers are independent contractors who create, implement, and supervise client objectives and goals. Meet some of them here.

Caregivers are independent contractors. An independent contractor is a person, business, or corporation that provides goods or services under a written contract or a verbal agreement. Unlike employees, independent contractors do not regularly work for an employer but work as they choose.
