About Us
Our History
Charles K. Murray, III (1952-2008), Founder
Charles Murray, Husband, Father and Entrepreneur, founded One on One Care in 1998. His vision was to create a company that enabled seniors and persons with disabilities to live with dignity in the comfort of their own homes for as long as possible, without having to face a move to a nursing facility.
His vision became a reality through hard work, compassion and a genuine concern for the comfort and well-being of his clients. He was well-loved by families and staff alike. Many of our aides still on staff today fondly remember “Mr. Charles”.
His vision remains a reality today. Family owned and operated, assisted by excellent staff, One on One Care continues to be the provider of choice in Northern and Central Virginia. We have assisted thousands of families over our first 24 years by providing exceptional care, and as we continue to grow, we remind ourselves of the person to whom we owe it all.
