❓ FAQ Friday ❓

What’s the difference between in-home care and assisted living?

🏡 In-Home Care: Caregivers come to you, providing support with daily activities, companionship, and personalized care right in the comfort of your own home.

🏢 Assisted Living: A senior moves into a community setting that offers housing, meals, and varying levels of care depending on needs.

✨ Many families prefer starting with home care because it allows their loved one to maintain independence while receiving the right level of support in a familiar environment.

✨ Testimonial Thursday ✨

“Home Helpers of Richmond & Chesterfield provided excellent care to my parents, who were physically limited, for several years. Tracey and her staff built relationships with my parents, learning their likes and dislikes and treated them with respect through the aging process. They allowed my parents to live their life the way they wanted to – as independent as possible in their own home. Tracey and her staff are reliable, hard-working, respectful and caring. I couldn’t ask for more from Home Helpers as they cared for the two people who cared so deeply for me.” – Cynthia C.

💚 We are so honored to walk alongside families in their care journey and to make independence at home possible.

🌿 Wellness Wednesday 🌿

💧 As obvious as it may sound, staying hydrated is one of the simplest ways to support healthy aging. Our sense of thirst naturally decreases as we get older, which makes it easier to forget to drink enough.

✅ Aim for 6–8 glasses of water a day, and try adding fresh fruit like lemon, cucumber, or berries for extra flavor.
Even small sips throughout the day can make a big difference in energy, digestion, and memory. 🧠✨

💚 A little motivation to brighten your week

Small steps now make a big difference later. 💙

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.
