November is National Care at Home Month, a time to recognize the growing need for care where people want and need it most—at home.

Did you know that around 12 million Americans receive home-based care each year?

Yet proposed cuts to home health funding threaten access to care for millions of older adults and people with disabilities.

📣 Take action: Tell Congress to urge CMS to stop the cuts and reset 2026 payment rates. Protect access to care at home: https://hh.accentcare.com/save-home-health

Jose’s kindness (and his tamales!) made everyone’s day at PurposeCare of Michigan.💙

We love seeing moments like this, when compassion extends beyond care and into community.

We were fortunate to receive a visit from one of our compassionate caregivers, Jose, who kindly brought us dozens of homemade tamales and Spanish rice for lunch!!! Jose is pictured with his direct supervisor, Sabrina, and branch manager, Kelly. 💙

During a recent shift, Caregiver Norma Woodruff arrived to find her client choking on a grape. Acting without hesitation, she performed the Heimlich maneuver and cleared the obstruction—saving her client’s life.

Thanks to her quick response and training, her client made a full recovery. That’s the difference great caregivers make every day. 💜
