What is the difference between personal care and companion care?

Personal care involves hands-on assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. Companion care focuses on social engagement, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and accompaniment to appointments. Many families combine both types of care depending on their loved one's needs.

How do you match caregivers with clients?

We use a personalized matching process that considers your loved one's care needs, personality, preferred schedule, language preferences, and any specific requests your family may have. Our care managers conduct an in-home assessment and then select a caregiver whose skills and temperament are the best fit. We always welcome feedback and can adjust the match if needed.

Can personal care services be started on short notice?

Yes. We understand that care needs can arise unexpectedly. In most cases, we can begin personal care services within 24 to 48 hours of your initial call. Our team will conduct a brief assessment to understand your loved one's needs and create a care plan quickly so support can begin as soon as possible.
