I am so grateful for her genuine care for our client and stepping in during an emergency to help us handle the situation. I would recommend ABC for services because they absolutely go above and beyond with such a special touch. Robbie Chenault, Elevated Living Services”

I was very pleased with how quickly you were able to respond to our need for help last October and found that your personnel were easily compatible with Robbie, me, and our family. Your employees have meshed well with the household and our personal routines, to the point that some have almost become like part of the family. I thank you all for the wonderful help provided through your organization”

Senior care services are for people who need ongoing assistance that cannot easily be provided by their family or friends. Studies show older adults prefer to live independent, non-institutionalized lives, and in-home care is a safe, effective way to provide care in the comfort of one’s own home.
The answer depends on the type of care, the location of care and the level of care that is needed. At Always Best Care, we provide a no obligation care consultation and provide information on many options for paying for home care for you and your loved one.
Our company vision is to work as a united team providing the best senior care in the world, with the broadest range of services, and the most loving and consistent care anywhere. We are dedicated to exceeding your expectations…always
Your Care Coordinator will work with you and your loved one to select the best qualified caregiver for each client. They will carefully review your care plan and try to match the right caregiver with the specific needs of each client. It is our goal and your right to make sure that you and your loved one are completely satisfied with our service and we will bend over backwards to make this happen.
Every Always Best Care location employs all their caregivers, so extensive background and reference checks are conducted. Caregivers are insured for your safety and they all receive extensive training upon being hired and on-going training to keep up with the demand of our industry. What this means for you is that you or your loved one will receive some of the best caregivers our industry has to offer.
The time frame to begin care for a senior will depend on the urgency of the need for the person and family that will be receiving care. That could mean care could start within hours, days or weeks, depending on your needs.
How people pay for senior care depends on their financial situation and the kinds of services they receive. Often, people must rely on a variety of payment sources, including personal funds, government programs, and private financing options.
Traditional Medicare does not pay for 24-hour-a-day care at your home, meals delivered to your home, homemaker services like shopping, cleaning, and laundry that aren’t related to your care plan, custodial, or personal care that helps you with daily living activities like bathing, dressing, or using the bathroom, when this is the only care that is needed.
Home-based care is part of the VA Medical Benefits. All veterans are eligible if they meet the clinical need and it is available.
