History

SafeHarbor Healthcare Services began forty four years ago, in 1967, when Staten Island businessman and community leader Frank Krause opened Homemakers of Staten Island as a housekeeping service that provided domestic help. In 1972 the company’s focus shifted to providing nurses, certified health care aides and companions to patients in private homes, hospitals, nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

Today, the Frank Krause family continues the SafeHarbor tradition of excellence in home care. We embrace Mr. Krause’s business philosophy which emphasizes community involvement and providing high quality, personalized care. We work hard to ensure that each and every SafeHarbor staff member performs his or her tasks with competence, compassion and a respect for the dignity of all patients entrusted to our care.

Over these past four decades, the SafeHarbor family has helped thousands of Staten Island families deal with the challenge and responsibility of caring for a friend or a loved one. We know first hand how difficult and stressful it is to ensure that the best possible care is given to a spouse, parent, sick family member or friend. We welcome the opportunity to help you make the right decision regarding service options and to provide the appropriate care once that decision is made.

We work hard every day to make sure that SafeHarbor lives up to its reputation as Staten Island’s premier locally owned home care agency. Please contact us, we can help.
