Intuitively seems like a safe pick for the long term, for all the obvious boomer reasons, and likely to be serving a growing niche in the market. I know there are some concerns around any changes in Health Care policy that may come about. I believe that Almost Family is largely immune to those changes, as the name says this is about family and providing the right care and support, importantly in the persons own home. We have a lot at stake in our homes these days and do not want to give up that security and equity to fritter away on paying for residential care.

Oh, and from what I can see from the numbers, this appears to be a solid well run company, with good levels of insider ownership (over a third) in line with TMF's "Gem" thinking.

I am going to open the first third of my position in this company while the stock is under $20.
