At Home Helpers of the Crystal Coast, flexible care means support that fits your life—not the other way around. Whether it’s a few hours a week, short-term recovery care, or a long-term plan, we adjust to meet your loved one’s changing needs.

No two families are alike, and no two care plans should be either. That’s why we take the time to talk with you, understand your situation, and create a plan that works—now and in the future.

Recovering from surgery or illness requires careful attention to care instructions. Our Caregivers help ensure proper wound care, activity restrictions are followed, and recovery goals are met while providing comfort during the healing process.

A recent Home Health Care News article found that out of 63 million caregivers in the U.S., only 32% use any form of paid help.

Why? Well, many don’t know where to start in finding help, aren’t aware of the options available, or feel guilty stepping back from care.

The truth is, caregiving can involve complex medical and personal care tasks and trained caregivers can bring knowledge, safety, and relief to both the person receiving care and the family providing it. Having the right support doesn’t replace family, it helps them focus on what matters most: being family.

If you’re unsure where to start, give us a call. We’ll talk through your situation and, if we’re not the right fit, we’ll point you toward someone who is. A conversation is always the best first step.

What Does It Mean to “Age in Place”? 🏡

Aging in place means being able to live safely, comfortably, and independently in your own home as you grow older. For many families, it’s a deeply meaningful goal—but it often requires a little extra support to make it happen.

That’s where we come in. We help make aging in place possible with personalized care plans built around your loved one’s needs, schedule, and lifestyle.

💙 Every situation is different, and we’re here to help you figure out what’s right for yours.

Connecting with the Beaufort NC Lions Club🦁💙

Caring for a loved one is an act of love—but it can also be incredibly demanding. 💙

If you know someone who’s a family caregiver, even the smallest gestures can make a big difference. A warm meal, a quick errand, a genuine “How are you doing?”—it all helps them feel seen and supported.

And sometimes, what they need most is simply a break. That’s where we come in. At Home Helpers of the Crystal Coast, we’re not just here for the person receiving care—we’re here for the family, too.

If someone you love is doing it all, let them know help is here.

Every Independence Day, we pause to honor the heroes who gave everything. Some of their names are lost to history – but their bravery is not.

This past July 4th, Home Helpers® Home Care CEO & President Emma Dickison had the extraordinary honor of laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, with proud U.S. Veteran and Home Helpers® Home Care franchisee, David Conolly, who serves the Tri-Cities, VA community.

This moment held deep personal meaning for Emma, whose father bravely served during WWII with the 83rd Army "Thunderbolt" Infantry Division. He came home. So many others did not.

At Home Helpers®, we proudly stand beside our nation’s heroes—Veterans who continue their legacy of service as franchisees and Caregivers, delivering exceptional care in communities across the country. We’re also deeply honored to care for those who once served. Their stories inspire us every day, and we take great pride in Taking Care of the Greatest Generation … Yours.®💙

Today and every day, we remember. We honor. And we give thanks.

Have Long-Term Care Insurance? Let’s Talk About How to Use It 💙

If you have a long-term care insurance policy, you’re already one step ahead—but knowing how to actually use it can be the hard part. Many families aren’t sure how to start a claim, what services are covered, or why an approval might be delayed. On top of that, most policies are “use it or lose it,” which makes understanding the process even more important.

That’s where we come in to walk you through it— step by step. Whether you’re ready to file or just have questions, give us a call. We’ll help you make the most of the care you’ve already planned for.
