It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always.
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic House-In-the-Horseshoe gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Horse Shoe, NC is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

She goes beyond just basic care and does all she can to help remedy any problem we have. I love that I can trust her and feel safe having her share my home with me.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Horseshoe Farm Nature Preserve with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local The Silo Cookhouse at The Horse Shoe Farm or visit Tipton-Haynes Historic Site, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?
A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Horse Shoe, NC, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.
Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.
Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.
For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.
More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.
With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Horse Shoe, NC understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.
Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Horse Shoe, NC 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

After shrinking a plan for a 198-unit residential development down to 132 units, developer John Turchin is adjusting those plans once again.
Turchin now plans to also rent out the former Horse Shoe Farms off South Rugby Road, saying he hopes to make it profitable as an event space. The plan right now is to do both — run the property as a rental venue and develop residentially, but if the venue is successful enough, Turchin said he will forego the residential development.
Keeping the property as an event venue and perhaps developing the land on a smaller scale would be his preference, he said.
"If I can make it successful this way," he said, "I won't really need to develop."
In January, Turchin gained approval for the development, starting the clock on a two-year period to install infrastructure such as roads before returning to the planning board with a development plan. That's now the timetable he's using to weigh the success of the rental venue and determine whether or not to further develop.
So far, he said, "It's going very well" and garnering "a tremendous amount of inquiries."
"It's a very unique venue; there's nothing else like it around," he added.
His son, Jordan Turchin, is living at the site and managing the property.
It's a special place, with local produce delivered every morning, he said. It's been rented for family reunions, and families coming in with plans to go all around and visit the sites end up staying at the farm for their trips. Visitors rent the site and have the run of the entire 80 acres.
A detailed website, www.thehorseshoefarm.com, markets the space for weddings as large as 500 guests, corporate retreats, workshops and family reunions, as well as highlighting its equestrian facilities including 14 heated stalls, an outdoor riding ring, more than 50 acres of pasture and more.
So far, it's still available for the World Equestrian Games next month, Turchin said.
It lists a manor, two houses, two cottages and a loft as places to stay for up to 40 people, five unique structures, two ponds and 1,000 feet of river frontage on the French Broad as amenities, as well as concierge services “from personal shopping to private chefs.”
In a message from Turchin, the site is described as: “Nestled amongst the scenic landscape of Hendersonville, North Carolina, minutes from Asheville, The Horse Shoe Farm is the ultimate retreat at the center of one of the world’s fastest growing vacation destinations.”
Another development Turchin sought, a larger, 299-unit Farm at Eagles Nest in Etowah, saw its master plan denied last October in a 4-3 vote by the county planning board over concerns that local infrastructure, especially sewer, wouldn’t be able to handle the added load.

HORSE SHOE - There's a new restaurant opening soon at 3754 Brevard Road in Horse Shoe, and it will be a haven for chicken wing lovers.
Jared Dotson told the Times-News he's planning to hold a grand opening of Hustle Wing Company in the next few weeks.
"We're shooting to open up by Nov. 1. Some things are just out of our control like with any new opening, especially in the restaurant industry," he said.
Dotson posted on social media that there will be 24 varieties of sauces on the menu for his wings and that the Hustle Wing Company's website is in the works.
As far as the menu, he said the main thing will be, of course, his wings.
"We'll also have homemade tenders, sandwiches, salads and a great selection of sauces and vegetarian options as well. We will be serving local beers and some wines," he said.
Dotson said the restaurant will be sourcing as many local products as possible and that it will be environmentally-friendly as well.
"We have up-cycled lots of the dining room furniture. We are using carbon negative compostable cutlery as well as compostable to-go products," he said.
Dotson said he started in the restaurant industry when he was 19.
"A very talented chef who took me under his wing, no pun intended, and trained me to be his sous chef. From then on, I’ve been in management ever since. I continued my culinary career in fine dining restaurants for many years," he said. "I’ve also managed restaurants from casinos, private mansions and sky resorts."
He said the term "Hustle" was inspired from him being on his own since he was a young child.
"I'm always hustling to make a life for myself," he said.
Locally, he used to help manage 12 Bones and Luella’s Barbecue. He said he's been living in the Western North Carolina area since 1996.
"I moved around a lot when I was really young. Here is the only place I call home. I bought my house about a mile up the street in 2012," he said. "I’ve owned a couple restaurants over the years. Most recently I was one of the founders of Juju’s that used to be located at Mills River Brewery. I took some time off to focus on family over the last year."
He said his passion for making sauces is what prompted him to get into the wing business and that the reception so far from leaders in Henderson County has been "outstanding."
"They have always been easy to work with and really supportive. The Horse Shoe community has been really engaged on what is going on here. Our goal is to bring good food, a great atmosphere and excellent service to our community," he said.

Horse Shoe Farm owner John Turchin plans to have renovations of the former Fidelia's building complete in a couple months.
The building will house restaurant and retail space near the future Ecusta Trail.
"It's had many, many years of layers put on it to disguise its natural beauty, so what we did is researched some of the old architecture," Turchin said. "I'm trying to take it back to its original architecture, with a modern twist."
The 100-year-old stone building had five layers of roofing that Turchin removed, he said. As a licensed general contractor, he is working on the renovations and is contracting some of the work out.
Tamara Peacock Company Architects is the design firm for the project.
One end of the building front will be glass and the rest will be trellised. There will be a parapet wall on one side and a deck around the entire building.
It will include three dining areas – one outside and two inside. The inside will also house a bar and wine cellar.
Outdoor dining will be more of a lunch area, Turchin said. There will be grilling, pizza ovens, a stage and shade trees.
"I'm going to build a beautiful place – hit people with their senses," Turchin said. "First is sight, second is smell, next is taste and feel and touch. Hopefully, when 12,000 cars a day come by, you give them the right watering hole here, they will come."
For the retail space, Turchin is looking to lease to a tenant in the bicycle business, such as bike rentals, to cater to use of the future trail. He plans to also offer grab-and-go prepared foods for hikers and bikers from the space.
Turchin hopes to lease the restaurant too, but it may end up being an extension of Horse Shoe Farm's restaurant or become the restaurant for the farm, he said.
"It's going to be a good establishment," Turchin said. "I'm going to raise the level of what's been done. ... I need a tenant to take this place to another level. The area is ready for it."
