“Charmaine, the owner of Always Best Care, is amazing. Before my dad needed a caregiver, I asked Charmaine if she would meet with him to describe the types of services they provide. My dad instantly loved her. She spent a long time with him describing the services they provide but also recognizing how difficult this situation is and showing great compassion. When we needed her after he broke his hip, her agency quickly stepped into action and for months, Charmaine provided my dad with excellent caregivers and the quality of service I had hoped for. She gave my dad and my whole family peace of mind. I highly recommend Charmaine and her agency.”
“Just having someone that is reliable has been good. It has totally relived my anxiety. They are reliable. Some caregivers have called in sick, but they always sent someone.”
“When my very independent Father broke his hip two years ago, we didn’t know where to turn for care for him in his two bedroom apt. He insisted that he wanted home care. We found Always Best Care. Charmaine worked with me and my sisters to provide round the clock care for our Dad. They did their level best to find the best caregivers for Dad. When something wasn’t satisfactory, Charmaine addressed the issues and found other caregivers for Dad. We found two amazing caregivers who still work for Dad two years later. We recently bought out their contracts from ABC after two years of working with them. It is so hard to find good care for your loved one. ABC has served us well and we loved the caregivers so much that we kept them as our permanent caregivers. The service is not cheap, but they are reliable, bonded and insured and you will have peace of mind as you navigate care for your loved one. Highly recommended. They care about their clients and they were always reachable if we had any problems.”
“I can do all of my own stuff but it is nice to have a caregiver here. A lot of it is more about the companionship. The caregivers are very nice. I have gotten along well with them.”
“She seems to fit in well with my daily life. I like the caregiver’s demeanor. I think she is friendly and pleasant to be with.”
“Always Best Care found the perfect match for my 93 year old mom. Our caregiver is very dependable. She takes care of mom as if she were family. So happy with this service.”
“She depends on them. I like that they are able to provide a backup to their resources. They are also good at communication.”
“This agency provides caregivers when I need, or when I need a sub for my regular caregiver. This agency is good at matching up the caregivers with the clients.”
“Always Best Care is top notch. From the owner, Charmaine to their outreach and sales person Sam to their care team, you should feel confident in knowing you are getting the best experience for your loved ones.”

“I enjoy working here because I am known and cared for by the staff. Whenever I have had a concern regarding my employment, work dynamics, and/or my client’s care, I am listened to and respected. This is the first home care agency I’ve worked for where I’ve felt like my voice is heard. I have gotten to work with several clients and stay with them for years–continually building deep and lasting relationship with people I have come to know and love. I continue to work here because I believe we really can make a difference and provide the best care.”
“We have found Always Best Care and are happy with them. There was some difficulty with availability of people and scheduling. One of the caregivers made a serious mistake. However, after everything was straightened out, they have been great. For four hours, one day a week, a caregiver comes and helps my mother who has Alzheimer’s take a bath and gives her a manicure. The caregivers are good. They were conveniently located. I went and had a personal meeting with the owner of the company and thought she was very impressive. She then came to the home to meet my mother and my parents; we liked that. We thought that was professional and helpful. From then on, we have worked with a scheduler and the caregiver. I think it’s a very reliable and well-run agency, and we’re very pleased at this point with the service.”

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.
