Home Care Dallas, TX

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 The Grassy Knoll 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 Dallas, TX is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

“Dear Mr. Gardner, I am writing to express my gratitude for the commitment and service of your employee, Shameka Kelly. Through your agency, Ms. Kelly was connected to our family to serve as a caregiver for my sister Victoria who was in the late states of ALS/Lou Gehrig’s disease and required 24-hr. care at home. Shameka served as full-time caregiver under the direction of Victoria’s husband Ron, who was able to keep my sister at home until her passing this past March. This catastrophic and incurable disease rendered my sister completely paralyzed—wheelchair bound, unable to speak, bathe, eat or even lift a finger to do anything for herself. Shameka did what most caregivers would not or simply could not do because of the stamina and patience required to care for Victoria. Before Shameka, we hired a multitude of caregivers who came and went—sometimes only after one day—because of how strenuous and taxing being a caregiver to my sister was. Day after day, Shameka arrived for the job with a smile on her face and the patience and commitment to go with it. My sister Victoria grew to love Shameka, as we all have. It was a great comfort to us because we knew that if Shameka was on duty, my sister was in good hands. Shameka’s character, integrity, humor, honesty and professionalism are beyond reproach. She is an extremely caring individual who is always upbeat, optimistic, and patient. She was an answer to prayer for our family and became more than a caregiver—she became part of our family. She has my highest recommendation for any task or client that may be placed before her. And we will be forever grateful. Kindest Regards, Pamela Meek North Richland Hills, TX”

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Dallas, TX?

lm-check

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.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

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.

lm-check

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

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 The Mansion Restaurant or visit John Neely Bryan Cabin, 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.

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 Dallas, TX, 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.

 Elderly Care Dallas, TX

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 TX'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 Dallas, TX 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.


Respite Care Dallas, TX

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
 Caregivers Dallas, TX

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:

  • Belmont Village Senior Living Turtle Creek
  • Silver Leaf Assisted Living
  • The Sage Oak
  • Silver Leaf Assisted Living & Memory Care
  • Vitality Living Preston Hollow
  • Monticello West
Home Care Dallas, TX

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.

Dallas, TX (July 10, 2025) – A tragic collision involving a train and a vehicle claimed two lives Wednesday morning near the Medical Market TRE Station in Dallas. The incident occurred around 9:30 a.m. along Harry Hines Blvd and is currently under investigation.

Medics and fire crews worked to assist those suffering from injuries after the collision. Tragically, both occupants of the vehicle were pronounced dead at the scene. The Dallas County Medical Examiner’s Office has since identified one of the victims as 50-year-old Melissa Rose Campanella. The second individual remains unidentified as of Thursday morning.

DART officials confirmed that train operations were temporarily halted as emergency crews responded and cleared the tracks. Service resumed approximately four hours later. Fortunately, no injuries were reported among passengers aboard the train.

The exact circumstances that led to the collision remain unclear. Authorities continue to investigate, and the public is urged to exercise caution around train crossings.

Our deepest condolences go out to the family and loved ones of those lost in this incident.

Dangers of Railroad Crossings in Texas

Collisions between trains and vehicles, like the one near the Medical Market TRE Station, underscore the dangers that exist at railway intersections. Texas consistently ranks among the states with the highest number of train-related accidents each year. Urban crossings, especially those without advanced warning systems or gates, pose significant risks to drivers unfamiliar with train schedules or signal delays.

Dallas, with its robust rail system operated by DART and other agencies, is home to several high-traffic crossings that are essential for commuter and freight movement. Unfortunately, such infrastructure can also become hazardous when drivers fail to notice oncoming trains or misjudge the timing of a crossing.

The Federal Railroad Administration emphasizes the importance of always stopping for flashing lights and crossing gates. Additionally, drivers should avoid stopping on tracks and never attempt to beat an approaching train, as trains require long distances to come to a complete stop.

For families affected by such tragedies, the emotional toll is immense, often compounded by questions around liability, train crossing design, and safety protocols. Victims’ families may face a complex web of investigations, insurance claims, and potential legal proceedings in the aftermath.

If you or a loved one has been impacted by a train-related accident, help is available to guide you through the recovery process.

Remy Bond’s style validates my commitment to using 35mm film. Film Forward is the momentum that analog images deliver for a fresh and retro POV on live music. I’m used to being the freak with the film, but I found the rare comfort of belonging at this show. Remy Bond and her band weaved a swinging sixties revival where I was right at home.

The visionary poet of future nostalgia was photographed for V13 with unique analog photos.

Remy Bond’s set began with her Hawaiian shirt-adorned band taking the stage and then a performance art piece by her dancers in vintage waitress uniforms. The audience erupted into cheers and applause. The spectators were also dressed to impress in floral prints, knee boots, and tropical hair accessories. When the songbird herself arrived on stage, she moved with a dreamlike glide that matched the way her music sounds. Remy Bond carried herself to the mic with the grace of someone who has had formal dance or etiquette training. Her voice began to swoon so smoothly that I might have been hearing her in my mind the whole time.

If the film Don’t Worry Darling were ever adapted as a Broadway musical, it would be as immersive as a Remy Bond concert. The experience transcended time as much as space with expert production, lighting and set pieces including a martini glass large enough for Remy Bond to perform inside of. This artist’s careful crafting of a mid-century modern experience was always sophisticated, not tacky. She’s a reminder that American culture was once timeless before the 21st century made it disposable.

Remy Bond’s “The Star Shaped Baby Tour” will take her from the USA’s west coast to a holiday across Europe. I’ll be eagerly awaiting the next time she brings her enchanting road show across the U.S. for another North American tour. I was assigned male at birth, but I’ve become a Bond Girl in my heart.

A slow moving weather system brought a deluge of rain to parts of North Texas Tuesday evening, slowing the rush hour commute, drenching roadways and delaying the start of pop star Kesha’s nighttime concert.

The National Weather Service issued a flood advisory Tuesday for parts of Dallas, Collin and Rockwall counties as the system made its way through the region. Urban and small stream flooding is possible after heavy rainfall. The advisory is in effect until 9 p.m.

A flash flood warning was also issued until 8:15 p.m. for the northern portion of Dallas County, where 1-2 inches of rain had already fallen as of 6:15 p.m.

Areas in southern Dallas County, including Duncanville, DeSoto and Cedar Hill, were also under the flash flood warning but it was cancelled after the storm cell in that region weakened significantly, according to the National Weather Service.

In a separate post on X by the Dallas Emergency Management & Crisis Response, the warning for the county is set until 11 p.m.

An additional 1-2 inches were expected to fall for the area under the warning.

The National Weather Service has also issued a flash flood warning for parts of Tarrant County, including Arlington, until 11 p.m.

Wet weather slows evening commuters

Evening rush hour commuters in parts of central and northern Dallas faced gridlock on the Dallas North Tollway and other roadways as the storm trekked through the region.

The Dallas North Tollway, a major north-south throughfare in the area, was reportedly experiencing flooding Tuesday evening during the height of the evening rush hour commute.

Authorities also reported shortly before 6:30 p.m. multiple stalled vehicles in high standing water at Garland Road and Buckner Boulevard.

An SUV at Lake June Road and Highway 175 also had to be towed after it became stuck in muddy debris water, according to dispatch reports. No injuries were reported in either incident.

In Mesquite, motorists encountered flooded roadways near Military Parkway and Rodeo Center Boulevard, according to video shared on social media. Motorists on Interstate 30 at Hampton Road also reported slow traffic as a result of the heavy rain.

Kesha concert delayed

Officials at Dos Equis Pavilion posted on social media that the stormy weather would delay door entry times for fans hoping to attend the Kesha concert.

The singer had expected to take the stage at 7 p.m. but venue officials said fans should shelter inside the venue or their vehicles until the storm had passed. Patrons were urged to monitor the arena’s social media for updates.

Promotors ultimately decided to cancel the Tuesday concert and reschedule it for Wednesday. Fans were told to hang on to their tickets for admission to the concert.

Rainy July so far

The storms were expected to bring the most rain North Texas has seen so far this month, with some estimates originally forecasting up to an inch of water at DFW International Airport. Rainfall totals often vary significantly with scattered storms, making more water possible.

The chance of rain for the metro area is expected to drop Tuesday night, before rising again Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday’s showers are expected to be the last for several days to affect the entire region, making way for a sunnier weekend.

The temperature is also forecast to climb some once the rain clouds clear out. Tuesday and Wednesday will see highs in the lower 90s, while Thursday’s high is forecast to jump up to 95.
