For Karen Manalac, healthcare has always been about people first.

As part of the HomeCare Professionals team, Karen brings warmth, dedication, and a strong background in healthcare business development to every relationship she builds. With more than five years of experience in the field and a Master of Public Health from the University of Southern California (USC), she understands how important it is for individuals and families to find care that truly meets their needs.

Before joining HomeCare Professionals, Karen worked in the behavioral health space, where she built referral partnerships with hospitals, clinics, and community organizations. Through that work, she saw how meaningful it can be when people are connected to the right support at the right time.

Karen was drawn to HomeCare Professionals because of its mission to help older adults age with dignity, comfort, and independence in their own homes. She believes every person deserves access to care that meets them where they are, and that belief continues to guide her work each day.

Whether she is connecting with healthcare professionals, community partners, or families exploring care options, Karen brings a personal touch to every conversation. She values trust, compassion, and clear communication, and she is proud to be a resource for those navigating important care decisions.

HomeCare Professionals is grateful to have Karen as part of the team and looks forward to the positive impact she will continue to make in the lives of the families and communities we serve.

Andy Howard CEO at HomeCare Professionals

Andy Howard is a Bay Area Native who holds a BA in Political Science (University of Colorado at Boulder, ’97). After college Andy worked in the surging tech industry. His Grandmother however, would suffer a significant decline in health and ultimately needed in-home care. The experience of a loved one depending on outside help to age in place proved to be pivotal for Andy as he left the tech industry in 2002 for an opportunity in the home care world with a large provider. After having success in home care, but being frustrated by corporate constraints Andy founded HomeCare Professionals in 2005. He methodically built the company one client at a time by focusing on hiring quality caregivers to ensure positive outcomes. Currently Andy serves as the CEO of HomeCare Professionals and is also highly active in the non-profit organization California Association of Health Services at Home (CAHSAH) which advocates for a higher standard of in-home care for those who wish to remain living at home in California.
