FirstLight

THE MAIN LINE, PA&nbsp;—FirstLight® Home Care, a leading provider of non-medical personal and companion home care services, is expanding its national network of franchises with a new location on the Main Line in Pennsylvania. Vincent McMahon officially opened his new FirstLight location in September, which services the areas of&nbsp;Narberth, Ardmore, Bala Cynwyd, Bryn Mawr, Gladwyne, Haverford, Villanova, Devon and Radnor, all near and around Philadelphia’s Main Line.Born in Western Ireland, McMahoncame to New York City in 1997 on vacation, but quickly found opportunities with a career in computer engineering. He soon met his to-be wife Laura and the rest is history. After spending years on Wall Street working in corporate America, McMahonwanted to move to a business venture that would not only allow him to spend more time with his wife and children but give back to the community. It was in opening his FirstLight Home Care franchise location that he met Melissa LaSala, who quickly moved up the ranks to become his new location’s Director of Operations.&nbsp;It was almost in Melissa’s DNA to care for others. Her mother worked as a CNA throughout Melissa’s childhood, and Melissa grew up in a multi-generational home where everyone looked after each other. She moved to New York in 2009 and eventually began doing home companion work with FirstLight. She found caring for others to be invigorating and fulfilling and cherished bringing joy and comfort into the lives of people who would otherwise be homebound. She and McMahon saw the perfect opportunity to expand the business when Melissa decided to move home. With a combined 14 years of experience, the two are well-equipped to begin serving the Main Line Pennsylvania area.Mary Pat Tanz, the newest FirstLight employee and Main Line native, was hired in early September as the community liaison. She worked as a respiratory therapist for many years before deciding to make a change in her career. She brings a unique perspective to FirstLight because she has seen the critical side of care throughout her career.&nbsp;“What excites me the most is I can be more involved in our clients’ personal care. I’ve never been able to follow their journeys after they left the facilities in which I worked,” said Tanz. She’s looking forward to being a part of FirstLight in Main Line because she can be hands-on and involved with long-term personal care. “It’s exciting for me to be able to work with members of my community beyond those moments when they’re extremely sick and help them on their journeys.”As a notable and award-winning home care agency, FirstLight provides exceptional care for seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, individuals recuperating and any adult who needs assistance.
