Why home care?

Every year, more families are choosing home care as a dignified, cost-effective, and personal alternative to institutional care. Whether it’s helping with daily tasks, managing chronic conditions, or simply offering companionship—home care allows people to age, heal, and live independently in the place they feel safest: their home.

My Home Care Journey – Kim Tweedel

Many have asked why I got into home care. The answer begins with my grandmother. At 90, she was still independent—driving and gardening. But after a fall left her blind, everything changed. Her confusion worsened, and on Christmas Day, she ended up in the ER. She was discharged to a skilled nursing facility, but the care was heartbreaking. I’d find her on the floor, and the staff showed little compassion. She kept saying, “I want to go home.”

Home care options were limited. The agency I hired wasn’t equipped for dementia care. Eventually, we found a small care home where she stayed until her passing.

That experience never left me. Years later, I felt called to create something better. With my background as a respiratory therapist and experience in healthcare, I started Advocates for the Independent to provide the care my grandmother deserved.

15 years later, we’re still guided by her memory—treating every client like family and helping them stay independent. That mission continues to drive me every single day.

🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

Today we celebrate the birth of a nation founded on bold ideas—freedom, self-determination, and the courage to chart a new course. For those who think independently, act with purpose, and believe in the power of the people—this day is for you.

Whether you’re spending today with friends, family, or in quiet reflection, may we all honor the spirit of independence by staying true to our values and voices. 🗽💫
