General Info

We specialize in home care services for personal care needs such as bathing, grooming, help with hair and clothing, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and laundry. These are the essential services that allow older persons to stay in their own homes, even as their physical abilities become limited. A large number of our clients in personal care are Medicaid eligible. Medicaid services must be prescribed by a patient's family doctor and are available for persons with low incomes. A smaller number, but growing all the time, are those persons who pay for their own services or who have health insurance that provides payment for personal care. The Area Agency on Aging is licensed by the State Health Department as a personal care provider. Our personal care services are under the supervision of a Registered Nurse and provided by certified personal care aides. All aides and staff undergo police background checks and appropriate screens for communicable diseases prior to employment.
