Assisted Living Services Inc. in Cheshire has earned a position on the annual Inc. 5000 list for 2020, which ranks the nation”™s fastest-growing private companies. It is one of 36 Connecticut businesses that earned this recognition and the only one in the health industry category in the state.
For the past two years, family-owned Assisted Living Services has adopted a performance-management framework named Objectives and Key Results, which allows the company to align its goals from top to bottom and measure progress. “One key to our success is that we put most of our emphasis on achieving audacious quality goals first and foremost. The other is that we strive to surround ourselves with the very best talent ”” from managers to field staff,” CEO Ron D”™Aquila said.
“We pride ourselves on leading industry trends as we constantly adapt to a changing business environment. Demand for quality in-home care has exploded as baby boomers retire and prefer to age in place,” COO Mario D”™Aquila said.
D”™Aquila noted the company”™s 87% revenue growth over the last three years stems from its expansion into Fairfield County, moving its headquarters from Meriden to a larger office complex in Cheshire, as well as continued cultivation of positive relationships with key state agencies, business partners and industry associations.
Assisted Living Services is owned and operated by Sharon and Ron D”™Aquila. Their sons Mario D”™Aquila and Nicholas D”™Aquila are heavily involved in company operations
