Quality Home Care for Veterans in Charlotte, Mint Hill, Matthews and Huntersville

“For me, it is personal.  For Veterans that made it back, and now need care at this point in their life, it is an honor to care for my fellow Veterans,” Ken Fleming.

Army veteran and FirstLight Home Care of Greater Charlotte owner Ken Fleming is passionate about providing quality care to fellow veterans. As a life member with the American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign War and the Disabled American Veterans organizations, and an officer of the 40/8th, Ken is very active in the veteran community – and FirstLight Home Care of Greater Charlotte is proud to be a preferred VA provider for home care services.  He speaks to Veterans groups a couple of times a month sharing information on how the VA is the third largest payor source for home care, and how Veterans can get this care that most of them have earned.
