Stevenson, Maryland-based The Lisa Vogel Agency has just expanded to downtown Bethesda. The agency offers in-home care services designed to allow people who might otherwise be forced into nursing homes a chance to stay in their own homes.
Vogel, a graduate of Loyola University Maryland, recalled the lonely faces and uneven quality of care she witnessed when visiting her own grandparents in nursing homes as a child. The memories inspired her to launch an in-home care service in the Baltimore area in 2008. Now, a decade later, the agency's services are available in Bethesda on Cordell Avenue.
