Homewatch CareGivers of Twin Falls

Eric Wallentine is the owner and president of Homewatch CareGivers of Idaho, which opened in 2009. Eric is always looking for ways to continually drive quality, caregiver satisfaction and client satisfaction to its highest levels. His favorite part about being the President of Homewatch CareGivers is helping people get into the healthcare field and helping people remain in their homes if they so desire. One of Eric’s most memorable experiences as a business owner was when he helped a client move into an independent living community and therefore significantly decrease the need for in-home care services. The positive difference this made in the client’s health and happiness was made it all worthwhile for Eric. He holds a bachelor of engineering, master of engineering and master of business administration from the University of Utah, University of Idaho and University of Phoenix, respectively. He is currently pursuing a master of economics from Boise State University. His background in engineering and process improvement guarantees that although we are not perfect, when we make mistakes, we will fix them and find ways to not repeat them. Eric enjoys taking rides on his Harley-Davidson motorcycle, and spending time with his wife, Shanell, their seven kids and five grandkids as often as possible.

Nate Benjamin joined his business partner, Eric Wallentine, shortly after Eric opened Homewatch CareGivers of Idaho in 2009 to help him develop a company to provide high quality, compassionate care to people in our community who need caregiving services.

Meeting one on one with families, gaining their trust and consulting with them to provide solutions is what he enjoys the most! He also enjoys working with the many community partners who share a passion for doing what’s right and assisting those in need. Nate has a bachelor’s degree in business from Boise State University. After spending 15 years in the high tech industry and traveling abroad he was ready for a change to stay home and be more involved in the local community.
