Cheer Home Care is excited to announce the addition of Barry Howland as Client Case Manager. Barry comes to the Cheer team with over 11 years of Home Care experience working in different capacities.  He finds the most joy in working directly with seniors in their home setting, helping them maintain their independence, and getting the care and support they need to live their best lives. 

After graduating from San Diego State University with a degree in Business Management and Marketing, Barry embarked on a career in Publishing. However, he realized his true passion was working with seniors, and he has worked with seniors since 2012.  He worked for his own home care company first and then Home Care Assistance and The Key. We are excited to have Barry join the team and learn from him.

Barry is passionate about caregiving largely because of his great-grandmother, Ruth, his dearest friend and the most inspirational person in his life. Ruth lived to be 104 years old, died of “old age,” and was a great role model for the aging population. When he’s not working, Barry enjoys spending time with his daughter and grandson, hanging out with friends, listening to live music, and watching football. Barry is often told that his smile lights up the room, and his compassion for seniors and the caregivers who care for them is unequivocal.
