We’re excited to share a big update—Outer Banks Home Care is Now Amivie!

Our new name reflects who we are: “Amivie” comes from “amiable” (friendly) and “vie” (French for life), symbolizing our commitment to being a friend for life—helping individuals live the life they want at home.

This change is more than just a new name—it’s a reaffirmation of our dedication to exceptional home and community-based care.

What This Means for You:
A Fresh Look – You’ll start seeing our new logo and branding.
A New Website – Explore our refreshed experience and learn more at www.amivie.com
Same Trusted Care – No changes to our services, support or locations.

As part of this transition, we will soon be merging this page with the main Amivie page. To stay connected and continue receiving updates, please follow us now at Amivie so you don’t miss a thing!

Our mission and vision continue to guide us:

We exist to serve people with individualized support needs to achieve their best health and fullest lives. We match the right team of professionals to the people in their communities who need support, with compassion and convenience.

Our vision is to provide people across the country with exceptional home and community-based services while offering our teammates fulfilling careers, honoring each individual’s unique aspirations.

We’ve also refined our values—integrity, compassion, inclusion, collaboration, and safety—to better reflect who we are and what we stand for.

Thank you for being a part of our community. We’re excited to continue this journey with you as Amivie!

Lots of Socks! 🧦😃🎉 Last Friday, our entire organization came together to observe World Down Syndrome Day by participating in the "Lots of Socks" campaign. Everyone rocked their most colorful, bold, and mismatched socks to help raise awareness and spark conversations. The concept is simple: when someone notices your eye-catching socks, it’s the perfect moment to explain why you're wearing them — to advocate for the rights, inclusion, and well-being of people with Down syndrome.

This annual tradition is a powerful reminder of our commitment to this important cause and the strength we find when we come together as a team. 🫶

Check out photos from "Lots of Socks" 2025! 📸 If you also took part, we would love to see your photos in the comments.

Heart-Healthy Tips for Seniors:
✔ Stay Active – Walking, swimming, or light exercises keep circulation strong.
✔ Eat Smart – Heart-friendly foods like oats, berries, and fish support a healthy heart.
✔ Manage Stress – Social engagement and hobbies help reduce heart strain.
✔ Stay Connected – Strong social ties can lower the risk of heart disease.
✔ Regular Check-Ups – Monitoring blood pressure and cholesterol is key.

By making small lifestyle changes, seniors can protect their hearts and enjoy independent, fulfilling lives! 💙

💜 Today is Alzheimer's Awareness Day, a time to recognize and support those affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

At Outer Banks Home Care, we are proud to be a Dementia-Friendly Business, providing compassionate care to those living with dementia in our community. We also recognize Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Care Staff Education Week (February 14–21), which highlights the critical role of well-trained caregivers in delivering quality care.

Caring for individuals with Alzheimer’s requires patience, understanding, and specialized training—and our team undergoes Alzheimer’s-specific training to better support seniors and their families.

We focus on:

✔ Effective communication strategies
✔ Creating a safe and structured environment
✔ Managing behavioral changes with compassion

You may also notice the purple seahorse symbol throughout the Outer Banks—a meaningful emblem for dementia awareness. Purple is the nationally designated color for Alzheimer’s, and the seahorse (translated from the Latin hippocampus) represents the part of the brain responsible for memory.
