What is
non-medical home care?
Non-medical home care provides services to
seniors who prefer to continue to live at home but need a little
assistance to do so. These services may be performed at
their own homes, the homes of family members, or independent and
assisted living facilities.

Are your services only for
seniors?
No, we provide care for individuals of all ages, such as new
mothers, or people recovering from recent surgery, illness or
accidents. We also provided respite care to ease the
stress of family members caring for their loved ones.

-
Does Medicare pay for this
service?
Unfortunately, non-medical home care is not covered by Medicare.
However, some long-term insurances are now paying for this type
of service if certain qualifications are met. They are
now realizing this is less expensive than a nursing home or
assisted living facility.
