Meet the Associated Home Care Management Team 
Michael Trigilio, President, began working with AHC in 1993. Since that time he has worked in all areas of the home care business. Currently he oversees the overall operations and direction of Associated Home Care. Over the past five years he has been dedicated to opening AHC to appeal to a greater group of elders. Michael has also designed and implemented internal computer systems to manage all operations of the business including scheduling, payroll and billing. He has been instrumental in securing new business and creating new opportunities for AHC. In 2007, Michael founded Elder Home Options, LLC, a business dedicated to providing elders and disabled adults with many different housing options. In the Fall of 2007 he presented this concept at Mass Home Care’s annual meeting at the College of the Holy Cross. In 2008 he presented this new model for home care at the National Council on Aging and the American Society on Aging conference in Washington DC. He has also been traveling throughout Massachusetts to share and spread the concept of keeping elders at home in this new communal setting. Combining his experience in the home health field and computer development, Michael is currently examining cost effective ways to deliver groceries to homebound elders via Groceries Delivered, his latest venture. Michael’s long term goal is to provide comprehensive solutions for elders. Michael received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Salem State College. He belongs to numerous home health care and business organizations. He serves on the board of directors for Massachusetts Council for Home Care Aide Services and is an advisory board member of Beverly National Bank. 
Nancy Aldrich, Vice President, Director of Home Care Services, has been working with Associated Home Care, Inc. since 1993. Due to her commitment of providing excellent care to frail elders in their homes, she has seen the agency grow from a “small family-run business” to a multi faceted full service elder care company. Nancy started with AHC in the scheduling department and, as the agency grew, she has grown with them. She is the key person that coordinates all home care operations between clients, employees and schedulers. She also currently oversees the organization’s operational procedures, supervising and assisting all departments with everyday operations. Due to Nancy’s strong work ethic and her passion for helping the elderly, AHC has become the premier model for home care services on the North Shore.
