Care In The Home

Providing Caregivers - hourly and Live-in, Skilled Nursing, Physical, Occupational and Speech Therap

What seniors desire most is to remain independent in their own home and community. Care in the Home has four types of service that make this goal a reality:

Personal Caregiver Service – Offers bathing, safe transfers, ambulation assist, medication reminders, escorts, meal preparation, homemaking and other non-medical help by a qualified certified nursing assistant or home health aide. Skilled Nursing & Social Work – Home health service offers registered nurses to manage medications, wound care and other rehabilitative medical needs as well as social work support, covered by Medicare and private insurances with a physician’s order. Physical, Occupational & Speech Therapy – Offers rehabilitative therapy in the home using state-of-the-art modalities and equipment usually only offered in outpatient therapy settings, covered by Medicare and private insurances with a physician’s order. Medical Home Visits – Offers an advanced nurse practitioner who makes house calls under the direction of the patient’s primary care physician to help manage routine care and chronic conditions when a patient has a hard time making it to their doctor’s office, covered by Medicare and private insurances

🧠 with Care in the Home 💙

Let’s talk about something that’s changing the way we care for people at home:

Goal-Oriented Care 💡

This approach focuses on what matters most to each individual — not just managing conditions, but helping people live fuller, healthier lives on their own terms.

With Goal-Oriented Care, we aim to:

✅ Improve functional ability in daily life
✅ Promote emotional and physical well-being
✅ Reduce hospital readmissions by providing proactive, personalized support

It’s not one-size-fits-all. It’s care with a purpose — tailored to personal goals, whether that means walking without assistance, managing medication independently, or simply staying safe and happy at home. 🏡

At Care in the Home, we believe that the best care empowers people to thrive — right where they feel most comfortable.

✨ Because better goals lead to better outcomes.

Let’s use this day to show gratitude, listen to their stories, and cherish the moments we share. Our seniors deserve not only our respect, but also our ongoing care and attention — today and every day.

To all the seniors we serve and love — thank you. 💐

Care in the Home is care that feels like family. ❤️

Home care isn’t just about physical recovery — it’s about emotional healing too.

Many seniors face feelings of stress, anxiety, or depression, especially after hospitalization or major life changes. But being cared for at home — in a familiar, comforting environment — can make a big difference.

🏡 When patients receive care in their own homes, they often feel more in control, more connected, and less isolated.

Home care supports independence, dignity, and emotional well-being — which are just as important as managing medical needs.

✨ A calm mind leads to a healthier body.

Let’s keep our loved ones safe, supported, and surrounded by love — right where they feel most at peace: home.

🌟 Real Stories. Real Impact. 🌟

We recently had the honor of supporting a family as they navigated some serious health challenges — and we were truly touched by their kind words.

Their father was experiencing severe dizziness and weakness, and with the help of our amazing team — including a nurse, physical therapist, and social worker — he’s now regained strength, improved mobility, and seen progress in cognitive function. 💪

We were also able to provide emotional support for their mother, who has Alzheimer’s, and offer guidance every step of the way. Our caregivers take pride in being not just skilled, but patient, understanding, and committed to making a real difference.

💬 "I didn’t know that there were healthcare providers out there that are this good!"
We love hearing from you. Your stories remind us why we do what we do.

Thank you for trusting Care in the Home. 💙

⁣
It’s for aging adults, people recovering from surgery, or anyone who could use a little extra support day-to-day.
