Tim Dupic, Founder of SarahCare of Campbell
With Master degrees in Business Administration and Divinity, Tim Dupic is currently working on his Doctorate Degree. Tim's entire professional life was marked by one success after another, including serving as CEO of a multi-state telecommunications firm. But for Tim, it wasn't enough to succeed: he wanted to serve and improve his community as well.
One of Tim's favorite slogans is "Use it or Lose it." To this end, he not only insures that all his participants receive daily mental stimulation, but he has coordinated with the Stanford Medical Clinic, the Mayo Clinic and the Hope Foundation to track the progress and efficiency of the SarahCare of Campbell program. Tim's goal is to halt, slow down and even restore some of the damage done by Alzheimer's and other causes of memory impairment.
In addition to improving social and cognitive skills, Tim knows that people simply sleep better at night when they're stimulated during the day. Now that his formidable ambition is focused on serving the elderly and their caregivers, Tim declares that, "Every day is a celebration. At SarahCare of Campbell every day is new and special."
