Sena’s Quality Adult Care LLC Opens Location on
Tremainsville
Sojourner’s Truth Staff
Charsena Braswell took an
unusual step this past month … unusual for the current
business climate in this age of the COVID-19 pandemic.
During a time when so many businesses have been forced to
close their doors, either temporarily or permanently,
Brasweell bucked the tide and opened her doors. She started
a business and literally opened her doors to a clientele of
low to high-functioning adults who require quality adult day
care.
Sena’s Quality Adult Care,
LLC, 2805 Tremainsville Road, opened in October, with some
collaborative financial assistance from Toledo Urban Federal
Credit Union and Signature Bank. The two financial
institutions put together a loan package for Braswell to
enable her to take a step forward and expand her care
business into yet another direction.
Braswell has operated
supported living homes – five currently – for about nine
years. Prior to that she had been employed for a number of
years in the adult care business, for example with Sunshine
Residential for some years. In 2011, “by the grace of God,”
she says, an opportunity presented itself for her to start
her own facility.
Those credentials – her
experience and her expertise – greatly impressed the
decision makers at Toledo Urban and Signature Bank.
“We met with her and her
brother,” said John Szuch, Signature vice president. “She
has a wonderful background, is a good solid person. We were
very impressed with her and wanted to participate.”
Toledo Urban’s CEO Suzette
Cowell was similarly impressed with Braswell and her
credentials and worked with Szuch to come up with the
necessary financing. That financing enabled Braswell to open
the facility on Tremainsville, which is structured to work
with up to 15 clients, and to plan for another facility that
is expected to open as soon as this month on Secor.
