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!
Our vision:
The Always Best Care resources include an extensive library to help you make better informed decisions on senior care and more. Our 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.

“I am a past client of this provider I want to share with you what a blessing Devyn and Gina have been to us. Devyn has such a caring heart and treats Papa like he was her grandfather. She transferred him from bed to wheelchair with such great ease. She does an amazing job when sundowners sets in and he begins getting agitated and confused. Her redirection skills are stellar. She has engaged with him, played games with him, worked on word search puzzles, talked about his life, just can’t say enough good things about her. Gina has seen the worst of him as the nights are truly worse than the days. She has laid her head on his pillow, spoken softly to him, held his hand for hours all in attempts to calm him when he is truly fighting a battle to get out of bed and yelling out in pain. Her gentle spirit remains in tact even through the difficult times and trust me they HAVE been pretty difficult. She is attentive to his needs and doesn’t back down from any task that is needed. We are beyond thankful for these women who are top notch in her eyes.”
