Personal Care Services

  • 24-Hour Care​
    Always Best Care helps you find the perfect round-the-clock in-home care plan to fit your loved one’s circumstances and needs. 24-hour care is support that is available to anyone who needs extra help to carry on living at home. It can include help with shopping, cooking, cleaning, washing, dressing and all other daily tasks. The need for 24-hour care can be prompted by accident, illness, dementia, frailty, disability, or frailty caused by the aging process.
  • Bathing, Grooming
    & Dressing​
    Bathing, dressing and grooming play a large role in a senior’s daily routines. Maintaining good personal hygiene can be vital in preventing sickness, while dressing can impact an elderly individual’s self-esteem. Grooming and dressing are integral to the activities of daily living.
  • Cognitive Impairments​​
    Cognitive impairment is not an illness, but a description of someone’s condition. It means they have trouble with things like memory or paying attention. They might have trouble speaking or understanding. And they might have difficulty recognizing people, places or things, and might find new places or situations overwhelming.
  • Companionship​​
    Companionship care is primarily emotional support and companionship for seniors who are generally healthy and who want to remain independent at home.
  • Errands & Transportation​​
    Help with errands, shopping, and transportation falls under the category of Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs). These skills are necessary in order to live independently and that all of us do once we are up, out of bed, dressed, and ready to start our day. Transportation services for seniors can help maintain a level of independence without the need for the senior to drive themselves.
  • Escort to Activities​
    Escorting a senior to activities can help them if they feel unsafe or uncomfortable in public without accompaniment. Many trips are often used to assist seniors to utilize the services of health professionals and agencies that they otherwise would not be able to access.
  • Hospice
    Support / End-of-Life​​
    Hospice care is for people who are nearing the end of life. The services are provided by a team of health care professionals who maximize comfort for a person who is terminally ill by reducing pain and addressing physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs.
  • Hospital to Home​​
    Following a discharge from the hospital, the first three days are critical. During this time frame and beyond, the support given to a senior and their family play a vital role in the recovery process at home. A hospital-to-home program offers a comprehensive and flexible solution that can provide the physical and emotional support needed to recover safely and comfortably.
  • Incontinence / Toileting​​
    There are several types of incontinence, which include overflow incontinence, transient incontinence, stress incontinence, urge incontinence, and knowing a little about the different types can help the caretaker and the family make the best decisions about what levels of toileting assistance should be included in the care plan of their loved one.
  • Laundry Services​​
    For seniors, laundry can be a challenge. As people age, they may have less energy and stamina. One of the biggest benefits of laundry services is that they can help seniors stay independent. Laundry services can also help keep seniors healthy by ensuring the are wearing clean clothing.
  • Light Housekeeping​​
    Light housekeeping includes things like watering the plants, dusting of surfaces and knickknacks, as well as picking up newspapers, magazines and other clutter. It includes emptying the trash, vacuuming and sweeping of main walk areas. It can also include organizing drawers, shelves and closets. In a nutshell light housekeeping is completing the specific tasks required to tidy up areas that a client uses. Examples of what a light housekeeping service does not include are heavy-duty cleaning tasks that require moving heavy furniture, washing windows, cleaning carpets, or scrubbing floors. Nor does it cover outside chores, such as shoveling snow off sidewalks, raking, or mowing the grass.
  • Live-In Care​​
    Live-in care is for seniors who need around-the-clock assistance from a caregiver. Assistance is generally non-medical and includes such tasks as medication management, shopping, and assistance with activities of daily living (ADL). Though caregivers sleep at the senior’s residence, they generally aren’t required for assistance at night.
  • Meal Preparation​
    Meal preparation and eating healthy and nutritional food is important for seniors. Meal preparation assistance for the elderly is not just about cooking, but involves so much more. Maintaining a regular and consistent schedule can also play a role in emotional and physical health.
  • Medication Reminders​
    Medication reminders are a nonmedical service provided by a caregiver or a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA). CNAs do not administer medications, or speak with a doctor or pharmacist about a senior’s medicine or regime—but they do ensure medication safety and regularity.
  • Mobility​
    Mobility is the ability to move or walk freely and easily — is critical for functioning well and living independently. As we age, we may experience changes to our mobility. There are many reasons for these changes, including changes in gait (how we walk), balance, and physical strength.
  • Nutrition Monitoring​​
    Nutrition is an important element of health in the older population and affects the aging process. The prevalence of malnutrition is increasing in this population and is associated with a decline in functional status, impaired muscle function, decreased bone mass, immune dysfunction, anemia, reduced cognitive function, poor wound healing, delayed recovery from surgery, higher hospital readmission rates, and mortality.
  • Overnight Care​​
    Overnight care revolves around a multitude of services which may include help using the restroom in the middle of the night, providing fluids and snacks in the evening, and assisting with preparing for bed. Elderly individuals may also receive help with transfer assistance throughout the night. Overnight caregivers can also prepare breakfast and offer morning care.
  • Safety Supervision​​
    Because more accidents occur inside the home than anywhere else, seniors and their caregivers must do everything in their power to make sure their homes are as safe and secure as possible. Some of the steps that can be taken to ensure homes are safe for seniors and their families include removing clutter, adding better lighting, rearranging cabinets and drawers, and assessing the safety risks of the bathroom.
  • Technology Assistance​​
    Technology can help the elderly live independently for longer by facilitating preventive care, early detection of, and response to, emerging health issues, as well as timely support for daily tasks. Technology offers a wide range of benefits to older adults. Seniors who use technology can also feel more connected to others, can be better engaged in the community and world around them, and be more informed about current events.

“Hi and thanks for being so gracious and professional constantly. We wish you total success in the coming years as you have such terrific leadership qualities and have accomplished so much. I think the reality is that it is very difficult to get good, qualified carers who care for the patients the way we envision the old-time carers would. In New York, they are having a difficult time getting qualified carers who will stay the course of a patient’s needs. We are so easily beguiled by ones who start out with promise then suddenly turn and leave. I don’t know what the answer are except that when we find one as loyal and kind as Ida is, we feel very fortunate. We thank you again for the kind introduction.”

“How Ida Russell Webster Brought My Husband Home Again In February of 2015, my 83-year-old husband suffered a massive, disabling stroke while alone in his condo here in Birmingham. As soon as we knew he would be able to return home with 24/7 care, we were introduced to three different agencies. We chose Always Best Care because we felt confident with the expertise level of Always Best Care’s lead caregiver, Ida Russell Webster. At our initial introduction, Ida walked around his hospital bed, expertly examining all aspects of my husband, gently testing what he could do and assessing what her objectives would be. Four years have now passed. My husband remains in Ida’s daily weekday care at home. Because of Ida’s strong determination and joyful spirit, Ida, my husband and I have been able to travel to Epcot Center in Florida, Atlanta, Georgia, Bangor, Maine, Charleston, South Carolina, Washington, D.C. and many times, to New York City. We have visited with our extended family and hosted many visitors in our home. Our visitors are always very appreciative of the gracious way in which Ida has helped my husband to return to the greater the world outside of his bedroom. We thank Always Best Care for enabling us to meet our wonderful friend and caregiver, Ida!”

“Writing for Brian F of Homewood: Always Best Care is prompt and reliable. Evelyn is my favorite and she knows exactly what I need to do and where I need to go. I can rely on Always Best Care to take me where I need to go and they are friendly and courteous. Most are helpful to my wife after my appointments are over. I wish they all asked if they could help her with household needs after my appointments. I have no other suggestions for this company; they do an excellent job for me.”

“There wasn’t a time Always Best Care didn’t have a caregiver to be with my Mom. Also, they completed the necessary paperwork to the Long Term Insurance Company so I didn’t have to handle it. Primarily their service was at night while my Mom was sleeping so I’m not able to discuss a lot about their care and service to her. I did recommend them to a dear friend of mine who just starting use them for his Mom’s care.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Always Best Care. They have a team amazing caregivers. Before meeting them, I wasn’t quite sure if I could leave my ailing mother with anyone and rest assured that they would care for her like I would. But they have been so compassionate and caring; I have no words to express my gratitude. I am able to focus on my job better knowing that they are there to take care of mom in my absence.”

“Jennifer…..Gilbert Nicholson here from Bluff Park…..I wanted to pause and send an email to tell you what an absolutely wonderful job Tim did helping us find a retirement community for my 95-year-old mother. He initially helped me whittle down the list of potential facilities based on the money we have available, he then escorted me to tour three of them, one of which we chose for my mother. He did a great job on every point, helping me ask questions and raising questions with the staff at each of these places I would never have thought to ask. His knowledge of retirement communities, the different levels of care and the nuances was superlative. But what really impressed me was after doing all that work last summer, and taking all those tours, my mother refused to go; however, when I finally got her to agree to go four months later, Tim didn’t hesitate a second to help me pick back up and restart the process, knowing he had swung and missed with us the first time. Of course, it worked out and she is going into a community tomorrow, but he didn’t’ know that going in. He was still as friendly, helpful and professional, even though he knew she may balk a second time. That’s what really impresses me about him. He put the same energy and commitment into helping me not knowing how it would turn out. I can assure you if anyone asks for a recommendation, he will get it. Meanwhile, if you need a testimonial about his great work from me for an online forum, website or any other references y’all use, I’ll be glad to contribute. Thanks and best regards…”

FAQs About In Home Care Services

Female-Caregiver-Mobile Female-Caregiver-Desktop

Always Best Care provides services for people who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that cannot easily be provided by their family or friends. More and more 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 advice on many options for paying for home care for 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. Our goal is 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. It will be important for the senior and their family to speak with a provider in order to discuss care needs, where care will be provided, how soon care will need to begin, and a budget for their care services. Based on the needs of the senior and their family, a care plan can be developed, whether needed for a few hours each week or around the clock care.

How people pay for long-term care, whether delivered at home or in a hospital, assisted living facility, or nursing home, depends on their financial situation and the kinds of services they use. In many cases, people believe that their current health or disability insurance will pay for their long-term care needs, but most of these insurance policies include limited, if any, long-term care benefits. 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 Primary Care is part of the VA Medical Benefits. All enrolled Veterans are eligible IF they meet the clinical need for the service and it is available.
