We are excited to officially announce the launch of our newly designed website! The update included showcasing our Dobson yellows, adding new functions, improving the content and readability of our service pages, and more. The updated site can be found at the same URL: www.dobsonhealthcare.com.

As a leader in the Private Duty Home Care industry, it was important to us to utilize current technology and create a modern website that has an inviting look for our visitors. Our main goal with this new layout is to provide visitors an easier way to learn about Dobson Healthcare’s services. Now, the website is organized in a way that is more user-friendly and promotes easier access to all information you may need about Dobson, helping you make an informed decision about home care. Furthermore we wished to create a site that would be considered a resource for home care education and support. Current and prospective clients, caregivers, and referral sources will find useful information about our services, industry resources, and healthcare trends throughout the site.

In addition, the website has new features including special links to Thrive (our online newsletter), our Service Overview flipbook, and various social media outlets. We will be consistently updating our content to provide helpful information, company announcements, articles, and more in our Dobson Happenings and Home Care News blogs.

We wish to thank our staff as well as Cosens Web Consulting for their hard work and dedication to put this website together.

We encourage you to visit and explore the redesigned website. For any questions, feedback, or comments please email us.

Thank you!
