When severe health challenges struck Guy Pelullo, owner of Incredicare in Northern Virginia, what began as a business venture transformed into a deeply personal mission. After experiencing falls following cervical fusions and developing debilitating rheumatoid arthritis, Guy found himself in an unexpected position—becoming a client of his own home care service. This eye-opening experience fundamentally shaped Incredicare’s approach to caring for seniors and those with mobility challenges throughout Northern Virginia.
Guy’s journey from corporate executive to passionate advocate for quality home care illustrates the profound difference between viewing caregiving as a transaction versus a relationship. “Nobody wants a stranger in their home, nobody wants to lose their independence,” Guy explains, highlighting the emotional complexity behind every care decision families make. This understanding permeates Incredicare’s service model, which covers Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, Loudoun, Alexandria, Manassas, and Stafford County.
At the heart of their operation is Fahima Hernandez, whose dedication to clients goes far beyond basic caregiving. Starting as a care professional known for braving ice storms to reach clients, she now oversees intake and client relations, bringing her background in child psychology to create innovative connections with dementia care. Incredicare’s investment in the Dementia Live virtual reality training program—which simulates cognitive decline through sensory limitations—has transformed how their caregivers understand and support clients with memory challenges. “There hasn’t been anyone we’ve put through that training that, when it’s over, isn’t shook up,” Guy shares, underscoring their commitment to empathy-driven care.
