We Dedicate Ourselves to Providing the Best In-home Care in Denver West, CO

Michael Duffy
Owner/Operator

After graduating from Michigan State University, I spent the next few years trying out different industries until I settled into a biotech career. Over the next two decades, I worked mainly in diagnostics testing for big and small companies in the public and private spaces. The bulk of those 20 years were in the area of Women’s Health. Starting on the ground floor and working my way up to several director-level positions, I attribute my success in medical sales to my ability to advocate for my clients’ patients. 

While enjoying my time in corporate America, I saw an opportunity to strike out on my own when this local ComForCare location became available. I see owning a home care agency as an extension of my commitment to advocate for my clients’ rights to remain in their homes as long as possible. I’ve been the owner of ComForCare Home Care Denver West since August 2017. This location has been in continuous operation since Fall 2009.

I spend my free time skiing, hiking, and enjoying all the outdoor activities that most Coloradoans love with my family and friends. I also love spending time with my dog Holly. Having a huge passion for nearly all music genres, you can often find me at live music events. I’m also a big fan of all of our Denver pro and Colorado college teams plus the Michigan State Spartans! Go Green!

Shannon Ralph
Director of Operations

During my two decades in Human Services, my focus has been at-risk populations. I have worked with the Intellectual and Developmental Disability population, TANF Recipients, domestic abuse survivors and perpetrators, and the elderly. My roles have included Case Manager, Regional Director, Program Manager, Project Manager, Quality Assurance Manager, and Executive Director. I have written grants seeking help from citizens as well as our government.

Working with people with severe trauma and abuse has brought great depth and appreciation to my life. This experience has brought out my strengths including resilience, integrity, and authentic kindness. Helping others is my passion.

My education and highly accredited training in social work techniques and strategies enables me to help our communities. The most rewarding part is the hands-on experience I’ve shared with clients for the past 20 years. Being face to face and spending hours of personal sessions with clients has enriched my skills and I’m able to use my skills to help at-risk populations in their daily challenges. I am thankful that my work with the community has involved both the public and private sectors. This variety of experiences has taught me to understand the importance of structure in protecting our at-risk populations while simultaneously embracing humanity.

Our ComForCare clients have provided me with the perfect opportunity to use the skills I’ve attained throughout my career. Our clients teach me new things and remind me of the importance of our work. I strive to help maintain the beautiful balance between a companion and caretaker.
