INDIANAPOLIS, IN — The Global Directory of Who’s Who is proud to recognize Vanessa Riding, CEO and owner of Life’s Touch Home Health, Inc., as a Distinguished Health Professional for her leadership, dedication, and nearly two decades of service to seniors and families throughout Indianapolis and surrounding communities. Founded in 2005, Life’s Touch Home Health helps individuals remain safely and comfortably in their homes through personalized services that include home health aide and CNA assistance, medication reminders and setup, skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, wound and ostomy care, memory care support, and other essential home-based services. The agency also offers Medicaid and Medicare services, supporting access to home health care for the individuals and families it serves.
Ms. Riding’s professional foundation was developed through hands-on healthcare experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant, where she saw firsthand the importance of dependable, compassionate care and the unmet needs facing many patients and families. Inspired in part by her mother, who was a nurse, Riding transformed that experience into a mission-driven home health organization. Under her leadership, Life’s Touch Home Health has grown to over 200 employees. Her extensive frontline healthcare experience and nearly two decades of executive leadership have shaped her patient-centered approach to home health care.
Beyond her work at Life’s Touch, Riding is affiliated with the Indiana Association for Home Care & Hospice and periodically serves on an advisory board for the Alzheimer’s Association. Looking ahead, she is focused on further expanding the agency’s Medicare capabilities and increasing access to skilled-care services while preserving the continuity of care that has been central to the organization’s success. The Global Directory of Who’s Who recognizes Vanessa Riding for her commitment to senior care, healthcare leadership, community service, and her continuing efforts to improve quality of life for individuals who wish to remain in their homes.
