What does independence look like as your loved one ages?
For Joe, it looks like purpose, connection, and just the right support.

Joe is 78, lives alone, and is thriving. Each morning, his caregiver helps him with a healthy breakfast and medications. They take a short walk together, then Joe tends his garden while she preps lunch. In the afternoon, she drives him to the senior center—he teaches a weekly chess class there.

It’s all part of the Balanced Care Method®—a holistic approach that supports independence, connection, and fulfillment every day.

❓Frequently Asked Question❓

Why should I use a company rather than hire a caregiver on my own?

Because care is more than just one person—it’s a whole process.

Hiring someone on your own means you become the background checker, supervisor, scheduler, and backup plan. It also means managing payroll, taxes, and even liability if that caregiver gets injured on the job.

At Home Care Assistance, we take all of that off your plate with:

✅ Rigorous screening and background checks
✅ Backup caregivers always available
✅ Caregiver payroll, taxes, and insurance handled
✅ Expert-led care plans and supervision

When you choose Home Care Assistance, you're not just hiring a caregiver—you're gaining an entire team, so you can focus on what matters most.

Elder Abuse comes in many forms, and we have learned it is important to stay informed, vigilant, and build strong support for elders. Here are a few simple but powerful ways we can all work together to help protect older adults:

→ Stay connected. Isolation is a major risk factor.
→ Look for changes. Sudden shifts in mood, behavior, or finances can be red flags.
→ Know the resources. Don’t hesitate to reach out to professionals or support services if something feels off.

Professional caregivers, family members, and communities all contribute to environments where older adults feel safe, valued, and heard. Find more resources on this important topic in our Learning Center: https://homecareassistanceservices.com/health-and-wellness/elder-abuse-advocacy

At Home Care Assistance, we're here to support your loved one and keep you in the loop—even when you're far away. Just ask Nancy and her family:

"We cannot thank Home Care Assistance enough for helping us get through a traumatic health situation with my mother. The caregivers provided written updates that were crucial to monitoring my mother, who was 2.5 hours away from us. The caregivers were amazing and bonded with my mother under trying circumstances at two hospitals and an understaffed rehab facility. The caregivers are compassionate, respectful, and amazingly dedicated to their jobs and sharing their compassion with their clients. We will be ever grateful for the support they gave my mother."
