Naborforce

We talk a lot about the value we provide to our clients and their families. And we do provide a lot of value – independence, autonomy and connection for our clients and peace of mind and backup for their families. But the value we provide to our Nabors is equally compelling. We know that most Nabors have a heart for service and are seeking purpose and a sense of giving back. Oftentimes they are filling a void in their own life, having recently become an empty nester or retiring from their career. Below is a moving story of one of our Nabor’s journey. Ken Green applied to be a Nabor in July 2021.  His application and interview went swimmingly until he got up to leave and took a flip phone out of his pocket. We had to let him know that unfortunately he would have to have a smart phone as everything runs through our Nabor App. We assumed that was the end of that. Well, later that afternoon, we got a call from an excited Ken Green letting us know that he just left the Apple store and was now the proud owner of a new iPhone! Ken began going on visits with clients, providing neighborly help in many different ways - everything from driving one client to a senior center several days a week, to helping a client prepare meals to simply providing companionship. He was very professional, reliable and well-liked by clients. Over nearly two and a half years, Ken went on hundreds of visits, bringing joy to numerous clients until his time as a Nabor abruptly came to an end last year. On a warm, fall Sunday, Ken had a visit where he took a client and her dog to the groomer and then the three of them took a walk around the pond at Deep Run Park. As he was getting into his car to return home, he had a heart attack and passed away. Ken was 81. Devastating to his family, friends and clients for sure. But, his wife sent us a note with a link to his obituary, and there was his smiling face right in front of the Naborforce banner. She told us that she felt at peace knowing Ken died doing something he loved. She went further to say that being a Nabor was “the source of his own healing after 2 years of deep grief from the sudden loss of his eldest son,” who had died 4 years prior.  She said it allowed it Ken to “safely return to life and helping others, which proved to be a connection to his purpose for the previous 40 years.” We are so blessed at Naborforce to be able to witness the good side of humankind every day – and to be able to provide a platform to promote it. #agingwell #community #purpose #agetech

This article shares an interesting perspective as things heat up in this election year. Social and political views factor heavily as people consider where they want to live post retirement. As the article highlights, “birds of a feather flock together.” This desire for social compatibility is one of the tenants of success of Naborforce. Because our Nabors hail from our clients’ own communities, they align well with the social norms and values. #olderadults #retirement #agetech #longevity

While we are helping older adults stay independent and autonomous, our data shows that when the adult child initiates an account, they spend double (that means just a few times a week for an hour or two). That little bit of backup can make a big difference in keeping caregivers in the workforce. That’s exactly what our founder was solving for when founding Naborforce - a resource for older adults and their family caregivers to bridge that gap until home care is needed. #caregiving #sandwichgeneration #career #employeebenefits

Did you know that May is Older Americans Month? It is designed to recognize the contributions of older adults and to reaffirm the commitment to serve older adults in our communities. At Naborforce, we celebrate older adults EVERY month - in fact, EVERY day! Our founder, Paige Wilson was featured on NBC 12 yesterday to help spread the word and share how our company is dedicated to supporting older adults and bringing joy to the aging process. #olderamericansmonth #olderadults #agingwithgrace #sandwichcaregiver

We are thrilled with AARP's coverage of our participation in their Employer Pledge Signer Program. At Naborforce, we are not only committed to helping older adults live full and connected lives, we also support engaging an older workforce. 72% of our Nabors (independent contractors) are over age 50; and last Fall, we launched the nation's first Golden Intern program aimed at leveraging the experience and wisdom of older workers. #Olderworkers #diverseworkforce #eldertech #startup #agingwithpurpose

With Tax Day right around the corner, a recent survey by Caring.com revealed that more than half of adults over 25 are claiming their parents as dependents on their 2023 taxes. And 75% of those who claimed their parents as dependents also claimed one or more children. We see this mounting pressure on family caregivers everyday. It’s not just the emotional stress of trying to balance it all, there is a very real financial stress as well. #agingparents #sandwichgeneration #taxday #caregiverstress #eldertech

Of those, the oldest runner is 78 and the youngest is 47. Join us on race day, April 20, as we takeover the 2200 block of Monument with a cheering station. #community #runners #monumentave10k

A few weeks ago, on Leap Day, we brought the entire team together for an invigorating day and a half of camaraderie, strategic discussions, continuous learning and fruitful sharing. We captured our first-ever team photo (including Daisy, our Chief Joy Officer), setting the tone for our theme of "Leaping Ahead" in 2024! During our time together, we delved into our vision for the future, engaged in team challenges around customer obsession (because is anything more crucial?) and we sparked creativity with an exciting hackathon focused on product innovation. We also enjoyed a spirited game of Family Feud, complete with some unforgettable moments from our diverse and dynamic teams! The primary goal for this gathering was to cultivate stronger bonds among us and enhance our collective capabilities. We not only met but surpassed that goal, leaving us energized and ready to leap into new opportunities ahead! #TeamBuilding #Innovation #LeapingAhead #CompanyCulture
