Home Care In Chandler, AZ

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 McCroskey House in Chandler, AZ 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 Chandler, AZ is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Chandler, AZ?

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.

Respite Care Services

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 Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar or visit The Edwards House, 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.

Benefits of Home Care in Chandler, AZ

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:

Age in Place

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.

Peace of Mind

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.

Socialization

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.

Personalized Care Plan

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.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

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.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

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 Chandler, AZ, 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.

Affordable 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:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your AZ's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.

Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.

Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.

Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.

Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

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 Chandler, AZ 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.

Assisted Living Referral Services

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:

Housekeeping
Laundry
Recreational Activities
Social Outings
Emergency Medical Response
Medication Monitoring
Family Visitation
Personal Care

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:

Sunrise of Chandler
Brookdale Chandler Ray Road
Copper Creek Inn Memory Care Community
Solterra Senior Living at Chandler
Brookdale Central Chandler
Brookdale Chandler Regional

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.

Taking the First Step with Always Best Care

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 Chandler, AZ 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.

TEMPE, Ariz, Dec. 6 — The No. 41 Basha [Chandler, AZ] Bears started slow but finished fast in a 34-7 rout of the Chandler [AZ] Wolves Saturday night in Arizona's Open Division state championship played at Arizona State University.

Basha and Chandler did not meet in the regular season despite being neighbors in Chandler, Arizona, which has been the epicenter of Arizona's prep football ranks this season. Three of the four teams in last week's semifinals, including the Hamilton Huskies, are based in Chandler.

But the two squads got their chance to meet in the title contest, and after a defensive first quarter in which Basha led just 7-0, the Bears got rolling and eventually stretched their lead to 17-0 headed into the half.

After tacking on another field goal to start the scoring in the second half, Chandler finally got on the board to trim Basha's lead to 20-7. But that was all the Wolves could muster on a night when the Bears' defense was unforgiving, and ultimately, it was Basha's night in what has been Basha's season in Arizona.

Basha concludes the 2025 campaign with a 12-1 record while Chandler falls to 10-3 with the loss

Refresh for updates

End of the fourth quarter: Basha 34, Chandler 7

BASHA 34, CHANDLER 7

With 8:46 to play, Basha gets what should be the clincher.

BASHA 27, CHANDLER 7

And, on the first play of the final stanza, Basha adds some insurance. We've still got 11:54 to go, but it just got that much harder for Chandler to try and rally in this game.

End of third quarter: Basha 20, Chandler 7

Basha is in position to score again as the third quarter comes to a close.

BASHA 20, CHANDLER 7

Don't look now, but Chandler is finally on the board, so this thing isn't over yet.

BASHA 20, CHANDLER 0

Basha adds another field goal. Chandler's defense is doing all it can to give the offense time to wake up.

And the third quarter is under way.

End of second quarter: Basha 17, Chandler 0

It's been all Basha through one half of play. But Chandler has to feel good that this game is still within reach, considering they haven't managed to get on the scoreboard, yet.

BASHA 17, CHANDLER 0

Basha tacks on a field goal just before halftime to make it a three-score game.

BASHA 14, CHANDLER 0

Basha doubles its lead, and the Wolves need to get their offense going.

End of first quarter: Basha 7, Chandler 0

It's been a defensive struggle, but Basha holds the lead headed to the second stanza.

BASHA 7, CHANDLER 0

Basha finally lights up the scoreboard with a little over two to play in the first quarter.

Basha on the move, approaching the red zone.

We're past the halfway point of the first quarter, and they're still scoreless.

They're under way in Tempe, Arizona!

Coming soon!

Saturday's game between Central Catholic and La Salle College is being played at Cumberland Valley High School in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.

Our Thoughts: His team will play Chandler for the AIA Open High School Championship on Saturday (Dec. 6). They are 11-1/6-1 on the season and beat Liberty 19-16 in the Semifinal. Vehrs was 5-of-10 in the contest. He moves well and avoids the rush. Sometimes his ability to move in the pocket is crazy. Exceptional movement with a solid, accurate arm.

Pure-Logic Industries breaks ground on new headquarters in Chandler Airpark Area

CHANDLER, Ariz. — Pure-Logic Industries, a leader in precision manufacturing and engineering solutions, broke ground today on its new 29,845-square-foot headquarters and production facility at 2605 E. Cessna Drive in Chandler’s thriving Airpark Area. The new building will consolidate Pure-Logic’s operations under one roof, providing expanded space for manufacturing, research, production, and administration while positioning the company for long-term success in one of the region’s most dynamic employment centers....

“Chandler’s Airpark Area continues to attract innovative companies that want to grow alongside a highly skilled workforce and business-friendly environment,” said Mayor Kevin Hartke. “We’re thrilled to welcome Pure-Logic Industries as they establish their new headquarters here and invest in the future of our community.”

The city’s reputation as a hub for advanced manufacturing and technology-driven companies helped Pure-Logic make the decision to purchase the two-acre site and move its headquarters to Chandler.

"A vast majority of products manufactured by Pure-Logic Industries are incorporated into lifesaving systems, which adds a greater sense of pride and responsibility within our team" said Michael Hughes, President and CEO of Pure-Logic Industries Inc. “Current manufacturing services extend to blood pumps for heart and lung machines, cryogenic bio-archive systems, military aircraft and ground combat vehicles seat safety systems, spacecraft crew module seats on NASA's Artemis program, and commercial aircraft evacuation systems. We are very excited about moving our headquarters to Chandler and being able to celebrate our organization’s 30-year anniversary in the new facility."

“Pure-Logic Industries’ investment underscores the strength of Chandler’s business ecosystem,” said Micah Miranda, Chandler’s Economic Development Director. “Their decision to locate their headquarters in our Airpark Area demonstrates confidence in our community’s ability to support growth, innovation, and high-quality jobs.”

Located near the Chandler Municipal Airport, the Airpark Area has become a preferred destination for companies seeking proximity to major transportation routes, a highly educated workforce, and modern industrial space.

Pure-Logic’s new headquarters and production facility is being built by Sun State Builders and is expected to be completed in September 2026. For more information, visit Pure-Logic Industries.
