    • Cognitive function, memory, and mental health
    • Nutritional needs, dietary restrictions, and meal preferences

Senior Care Insurance and Payment

  • What payment options are accepted? Are there any financing or insurance options available?

    We provide transparent, up-front pricing and can discuss payment options with you based on your unique circumstances. Clients and loved ones would need to work with the loved one's insurance carrier directly to learn if there are home care-related benefits.

  • What is the cost of 24/7 care at home?

    Costs can fluctuate depending on the preferred care schedule. 24/7 home care is generally broken down into two different schedules:

    • 3x8 hour shift: most cost-effective
    • 2x12 hour shift: designed to minimize disruptions and limit the number of caregivers coming in

  • What is included in 24-hour senior care? Are there additional fees for services like transportation or medication management?

    We do not have different rates for different levels of care needed - all clients pay the same rates.


    for all our clients, guided by our principles of integrity and honesty.
