About Us
Leadership at “At
Your Service Home Care”
In 1988, after working in the
University Health System at UC San Francisco,
Lucy Andrews
started understanding home care.
She became a
discharge planner and immediately fell in love
with the concept of home care and the autonomous
clinical practice it affords nurses. “Lucy was
hooked and has been a strong advocate of home
care ever since.” |

Lucy has worked in
every aspect of home care from Medicare
Certified, DME, Infusion, Hospice and finally
Private Duty/Private Pay services. She also
works as a home care consultant across the
country and as a legal expert witness for the
home care industry.
Having worked in
all areas of home care, Lucy has a well rounded
perspective of what we are facing as an
industry, and as a provider she advocates for
patients through the maze of health care
services.
Lucy has a Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing from
Lewis University, Romeoville, Illinois. In
1994, she received her Master's of Science in

Home Care Administrator. She is the
founder and CEO of Creative Solutions Home Care
Consulting Services and At Your Service Home
Care, a company that provides the things she
believes are essential for seniors to age in
place by offering a higher level of service
allowing people to be in their own homes with an
emphasis on independence, safety, and quality of
life.
Lucy is
the Chair of the Board of Directors for the
local Senior Advocacy Services, a service
organization that helps seniors and disabled in
