Michael initially became interested in home care after his mother had been diagnosed with Lewy Bodies Dementia. When she passed away Michael decided to set up his own home care company which has become one of Ireland’s premier home care providers.

Michael realised however there were limitations and downsides to the agency model in home care and because of this he decided to set up Home Care Direct to improve how home care is provided and also to ensure better value for money using technology.

Michael believes in empowering people to ensure they reach their potential. He also firmly believes he should be a better golf player. He is married to Elmagh and has two growing kids, Patrick and Sofia.
