To be the leader in compassionate senior care
We are committed to providing you with the best care for your specific needs
In the mid-1990’s, just outside of Sacramento, California, Michael Newman felt frustrated by the lack of resources for seniors in his community. An owner and operator of facilities for seniors, he saw many seniors and their loved ones arrive at his facilities confused and overwhelmed after trying to find the right assisted living community. This frustration eventually shaped his vision: To create a company that would serve seniors in the community by providing trusted care, compassionate support, and professional advice.
In 1996, Michael acted on his vision and founded Always Best Care. Since that time, Always Best Care has become one of the nation’s leading providers of non-medical in-home care, senior living referral services and home health care. Always Best Care was formed with the belief and agenda of taking the burden off of the families’ shoulders and putting it on our own. People with passion have made Always Best Care what it is today. Although times may change, our foundation never will.
Michael Newman believes that a successful senior care company is built on successful relationships at every level, in all directions. The things that make every relationship work make business relationships work too – caring, trust, respect, and communication. These are the values that guide our relationships with our clients, franchisees, employees, vendors, our community, and everyone we touch. Caring relationships are the foundation of our work – a sincere concern for the betterment of life that goes beyond just doing what is required, but doing the most we can for the seniors entrusted to our care.
Always Best Care began franchising in 2007 and today provides services through a network of more than 225 franchised territories across the United States and Canada.
Since 1996, Always Best Care has helped thousands of families with non-medical in-home care and assisted living referral services. In select markets, we’ve also added skilled home care for clients that suffer from illness or injury.
Our passion for helping people maintain a safe, independent, and dignified lifestyle represents the strong foundation of Always Best Care. Every client receives extraordinary care in an inspiring environment with caring and compassionate people. Our Care Coordinators have worked with thousands of seniors across the country, and we’re always ready to help you!

“Always Best Care Senior Services has been a lifesaver. I have a cousin who lives several hundred miles from me. She has Alzheimer’s and it’s very hard to take care of her from here. I’ve had other care services before and they didn’t work out because they sent a different caregiver every day and it was very confusing and upsetting to my cousin. ABCSS has been fabulous at providing continuous care. My cousin adores her caregiver Melissa. She takes her swimming and shopping etc. Also, I cannot say enough good things about Sandra Mendoza. Because I live far away, it’s hard to know what’s going on. She keeps informed and updates me by email and text message. She calls me if there’s a problem. What more could you ask for?”
“Abc has top notch people working in the office who deal with issues in a swift and caring fashion. Especially Juan and Moises who go the extra mile when there’s an issue. As for caregivers Jessica Perry who is beyond the best I’ve ever had. She’s on top of things each day and makes having someone around the house not so bad. She gets 100% my other main caregiver Daisy, is also terrific and smart. Both of these care givers know how to think, be aware of what’s happening and maintain great attitude each day. Zap-Roxie”
“Always Best Care has provided us with personalized, kind, reliable and professional help when we needed it most. They have made all the difference during our transition to an increase in home health care needs. I am so grateful for them! They will continue to be our trusted partner.”
“ABC has been amazing from the get go. To setting up service , to answering all my questions during this stressful time, to finding the absolute best caregiver lizzette that my mom actually enjoys spending time with:) everyone here is kind, full of patience and willing to help from beginning to end. Don’t know what I would do without their help. Grateful for finding them”
“You all were amazing. We couldn’t have done it without Freddie. Amazing. Cudos to Sandra and Moises. Will miss you all.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Always Best Care. They were prompt and courteous, met with me the same day as my Mom was being discharged from the hospital, and I needed to arrange care. Janet was the caregiver provided for my Mother. She was so kind and attentive to my Mom, also very concerned about her safety. She went over and beyond what I would have expected, and my Mom really bonded with her. I also used placement services as my Mother formerly was in assisted living but needed to move to a board and care for more care and monitoring. I was shown several beautiful homes by Bonnie Zwack who was personally invested in finding the right fit for my Mother. She even visited my Mother to ensure a positive transition. Thank you so much ABC! You lifted a huge burden off of my shoulders that at first seemed overwhelming. I’m sharing a picture that Janet helped my Mom color during an activity. Moved me to tears. Sincerely, Linda Devore”
“Elsie the care giver was amazing with my Godfather, very very caring, always going above and beyond with his needs”
“I just wanted to give Always Best Care a very well deserved 5 star review!! As children of seniors know, it can be a hard decision to entrust others outside of the family to provide love and care for your aging parent. However, Always Best Care of Indian Wells has been incredible in so many ways in helping facilitate home care service for my 100 year old mom. Sandra, their Care Coordinator, is an excellent communicator – patient and kind, resourceful and so very competent. Yvonne, mom’s caregiver, is loving and from our first meeting, she did those “little things” without being instructed that were important and mean so much. (Like checking dates on groceries, asking about parking so as to be considerate of the neighbors, having a routine for where to put things like mom’s keys, etc., and just focusing her attention on little things that were all about mom, etc. etc.) Moses, who installed mom’s AI devices was great as well – all smiles, so friendly and sweet to mom. And Juan, who does scheduling is the best as well….always one step ahead in communicating schedules and everything else. I am very impressed with how well they all work as a team. The most important part, though, is that mom is happy! Thank you ABC!”
“Always Best Care provided 3 day a week help for my sister while she was recovering. They did a great job attending to her and making her life simpler. I know my sister enjoyed the company and help. She was sorry to see it end! I would highly recommend Always Best Care to help you over the rough spots.”
“Above and Beyond I was driving in a panic from Washington to California because my mother was in crisis, she has dementia and her partner/care giver was taken to the hospital and not expected to recover. From the moment of contact while driving through mountains with terrible cell service Sandra and Moses took the situation in hand and offered solutions and managed to obtain a nurse for that very night with such short notice of only 3 hours and we needed care for 12 hour shifts. They were so compassionate and supportive and made us feel safe. Mom is 88 years old and can be quite difficult in the best of times, she really liked the nurses and wanted them to come back. Anyone needing Nursing services should call Always Best Care they are top notch. Thank you again for the amazing service!”
“Always Best Care is always responsive and easy to work with. My husband’s caregive, April, is fantastic. Very smart and he listens to April!”
“We only use them occasionally on the weekends, so they’re not really impacting her daily life. They seem really easy to communicate with, and they’re open and eager to meet the needs that we have.”
“My experience has been positive because the caregivers do what I ask them to do. I like Always Best Care because they are very efficient.”
“We appreciated the prompt response from Always Best Care. Sandra was so professional and was able to explain and answer all of our questions. The care that our Mom received from Jestina was exactly what we wanted and needed. Jestina was so sweet and kind to Mom and Mom just loved her. Thank you so much for helping our family and especially our Mom.”
“This was our first time working with this company and they did not disappoint! I needed to hire a night nurse for my Mother who just got out of the hospital and I was so nervous about it but after meeting with Sandra, she put our minds at ease! She was so professional, kind and understanding! She paired us with Nancy who ended up being such an angel. My Mom was comfortable and happy every night she was there! They had a great time together! Each morning Nancy made sure to provide me with updates which was so appreciated. I cannot express how amazing this experience was. Book them for all your needs! Thank you again!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased about my caregiver, Zulie, during the time that she was with me. She was always willing to help and make sure everything was easier for me. I always hoped that the others would be a clone of her. ABC always responded quickly to my requests and everyone I talked to was very helpful. Thank you to all who assisted me while I was with ABC.”
“The agency has given me free time and they are very responsive. I like the agency because the caregivers have all been good.”
“She did not need a lot of instruction. We had one caregiver for two days who was excellent.”
“The caregivers are always on time. I like that they have been very dependable.”
“I’m a grateful, former Caregiver/Home Care Aide employee with Always Best Care. As I advanced my career in Healthcare, I will forever look back and smile for my experience working with Always Best Care Seniors. I appreciated the opportunity to meet great families, providing the best in home care services, helping seniors with light home duties, while working flexible case assignments. Juan was the staffer at the time and was always attentive in providing prompt information for available open positions. Valentine was the Case Mgr and Bonnie was the Director. I will always be grateful to them as well for the great support. If you’re looking for Home Care Services for your loved one, I highly recommend ABC Seniors. I will never forget this great company. Thank you for the great experience.”
“The care is very good because they do everything they are supposed to do. I like Sandra, and she is great to work with.”
“They’ve been there to give me whatever I need. I’ve used them for a very long time and they’ve always been accommodating with me.”
“Our experience with Always Best Care was 5-star. Sandra Mendoza, care co-ordinator, was very thorough in her evaluation of my husband’s needs. She immediately provided the most wonderful caregiver, Ana Magdaleno, who quickly bonded with my very reluctant husband and was easily able to give him the care he needed with no loss of dignity on his part. I cannot recommend this senior services group highly enough. They provided needed support with care and grace. Wende Walter”
“They have available talent whenever we have needed it. The prior agency had limited services in our agency. The majority of their staff are Hispanic, and a lot of them don’t even know what a dishwasher is.”
“I have been a client with Best Care for about three months and I have been extremely happy with them. They are always there for me. Even if I call at the last minute which I don’t like to do they are immediately there for me and the girls are wonderful and I have to say Elsie has been absolutely a big number 10 for me. She fits with me like a glove and again like I said Best Care is the company to go with.”
“The caregivers help with personal hygiene and laundry. The agency is flexible and conscientious.”
“I like that they seem to be very knowledgeable.”
“We are so pleased with the professionalism and care of this team. Both Jessica C. the customer service coordinator and Natalia my mom’s caregiver have been fabulous. We have found a great and responsive service to assist mom as she recovers from medical challenges. ????”
“Sandra has been taking really good care of my dad! Also, Jessica C. Will always call me and let me know of any changes. I love the way they keep me informed I live over an hour away and I feel good knowing my Dad is in good care. Thank you so much for that!”
“Always best care has been amazing for my grandma. Juan Garcia is my guy to help with the schedule which I always change . He is always understanding and helping me In details .

“Pleasant, competent service. My caregivers, especially Amy, were terrific.”
“We’ve been very pleased with the services that Always Best Care has provided for my parents. Our caregiver, Lily, is always present to assist my father with his mobility issues. She is a great help to my mother in assisting in meal preparation/clean up and picking up around the house. My mother says that she knows what to do and doesn’t have to be instructed or asked. This has been a huge relief to my family. ABC has also been very flexible in accomodating a changing schedule as my father’s health has changed. We are definitely happy with our decision to go with ABC.”
“They keep him safe. They’re very friendly and good with my husband.”
