Home Instead Senior Care had been recognized for the fourth year in a row as a winner of The Lake-Geauga Fast Track 50 Award. This award was created in recognition of the existing and increasingly significant role area small companies play towards the continuing economic growth and vitality of our local area. It honors small businesses located in Lake or Geauga County that have prominently increased sales and/or employment over the past five years. Every year the Fast Track 50 Committee compiles a list of the 50 fastest-growing companies in Northeast Ohio's Lake and Geauga counties. Small business owners today create the vast majority of new job opportunities across the United States, and through the combined sale of their goods and services, account for over 50% of the Gross Domestic Product of the United States as well.

The awards banquet shares the energy of success and regional pride. This year's event will be held on Thursday, November 5, 2009 at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites - La Malfa located at 5783 Heisley Road in Mentor, Ohio.

"We are very pleased to be recognized for the fourth year in a row!" says Therese Glorioso, RN, BSN, president of the company's Lake, Geauga and Portage County offices. "The dedication our CAREGivers have to our seniors and understanding the needs of families on a personal level are all part of why we've received this award. We're proud to be considered one of the area's top performers."
