Our licensed nurses and certified home health aides provide all client care. These staff members assess and monitor the client's health care needs, educate patients and caregivers, and collaborate with attending physicians to promote continuity of care.

Hourly and live-in care
How hourly care works:
If you need services on an hourly basis, such as
- a few hours a day for light housekeeping
- transportation to and from doctor’s appointments
- only during the night
we would need at least one day's notice to be able to set up services for you. We are happy to provide care whenever and wherever we are needed.
How live-in care works:
The live-in aide stays in the home 24 hours a day, and is available to assist at any time during the day or night. All our live-in aides maintain their own separate residence. They are permitted to reside on the client's premises only during their assigned days and nights, and they must leave the client's premises on their days off. Live-in aides are strictly forbidden the personal use of the client's property (phone, car, computer, TV, etc.) and the reception of visitors while providing care.
