The Top Gun Program

Compassionate care starts here

At Cornerstone Caregiving, we are cultivating the potential of emerging leaders through our Top Gun Program. This initiative provides elite professionals with hands-on experience & mentorship to become pillars of our company as Operating Directors. Some came straight out of college; others were seasoned professionals—VPs, sales leaders, operators. Their backgrounds varied, but they shared one thing in common: a hunger for more. More ownership. More challenges. More upside. Through this dynamic learning environment, candidates are challenged to overcome obstacles, develop leadership skills, and actively shape the future of our business.

What our graduates are saying
“My time in the Top Gun Program was a truly transformative experience that shaped not only my skills, but also my sense of purpose and direction with my career. It empowered me to become a great leader for my team and step boldly with confidence into my role as an Operating Director.” Delaney F. | Top Gun Alumna
“During the Top Gun program, I navigated everything from scheduling conflicts and call-outs to deeply rewarding client assessments that ensured seniors received the care they needed at home. The experience was incredibly influential, giving me hands-on exposure to budgeting, operations, marketing, people management, and on-call responsibilities, and truly sharpening the skills I’ll carry forward in my role.” Cody M. | Top Gun Alumnus
“I have an MBA and a background in private practice, public health, healthcare insurance, and project management. I’m a mom in my late 20s, and I even relocated across the country to open a new office. I share this to show that the program is designed for anyone willing to put in the work to learn and grow. The support, training, and real-world experience I received set me up for success and gave me the confidence to lead a team, serve our community, and continue growing as a professional. Now I’ve had the opportunity to grow as a leader by having a Top Gun shadow me, and it’s such a great program to be part of in every capacity.” Sabrina T. | Top Gun Alumna
