In the middle of a full-blown pandemic, Fred Hammond realized that the lives of the elderly were not only at risk, but without warning, being reinvented almost overnight.  There was new norm that required immediate solutions, clarity, patience, and most of all empathy.  At this point, Fred decided to take his 30-year of executive experience with Fortune 500 companies and follow his heart to be more purposeful.  In the fall of 2020, Fred purchased 1^st Aid, a leader in home health care throughout the state of Texas since 2007.  It was rebranded it and Hammond Home Health Care was born.

Hammond knew one thing from the past that would be vital for success – people. High quality, high character, passionate would be our greatest resource.  Every decision would start with the question, first who, then what”.  If we didn’t think the people lined up with our values and purpose, then there would not be anything to consider.
