SarahCare Adult Day Care Services: experienced care, delivered with love
Curt Maier, President
Curt believed that there were limited choices available for the care of seniors requiring some degree of assistance and supervision, and felt that Adult Day
Care filled this void in the continuum of care here in the Lehigh Valley. Through
an extensive national search, he found SarahCare to be the premier provider
of these services in the country, and purchased a franchise. Subsequently, SarahCare of the Lehigh Valley was opened in November of 2005.
Curt spent twenty years with Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., serving in a
variety of business management positions both in the field and in corporate
headquarters. Previous to this career, he served as an officer in the
US Naval Nuclear Submarine Force.
