“I cannot say enough good things about Always Best Care and the service they provide to my disabled father. They have worked hand-in-glove with the VA for my father’s care. Everyone - and I do mean everyone - from ownership down to the daily aides who provide direct care to my father, have shown him the kindness and dignity you would hope to receive from a family member. Any issues we have ever had have been addressed promptly, even during weekends. Sarah and her team are hands on - I doubt many owners of similar companies make house visits like Sarah has. Any new aide who has been provided for my father has had personal introduction by a member of management, and we have had management team members step up to the plate when there have been scheduling issues to ensure my father received the daily assistance he needs. I recommend ABC highly and can’t thank them enough for all that they do. 5 Stars across the board!”

I go to work everyday with a smile on my face and I’m content about what I am doing and know that our clients will be receiving 100%, the best possible care. If I had a family member who needed a personal care giver (or in search for a job) I would definitely recommend “ABC” to them. 10/10.”

“Our family can't say enough about Always Best Care and taking care of our Dad these past months. The caregivers are angels and so thoughtful and attentive to our Dad. He could be grouchy at times, and they were so patient with him. As his health degraded, the caregiver staff was rotated to accommodate his changing needs and we seemed to have just the right person for the right stage. He really bonded with several and looked forward to seeing them each day. Thank you so much for all your support we could not have done this without you.”

 In-Home Care Georgetown, KY

How does In-home Senior Care in Georgetown, KY work?

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it's 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 ages, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

 Senior Care Georgetown, KY

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.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a unfamiliar assisted living community, 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:

Comfort
Comfort

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, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old. With the help of elderly care in Georgetown, KY, 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.

Healthy Living
Healthy Living

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.

Independence
Independence

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 an assisted living community. 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.

Cost and Convenience
Cost and Convenience

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 to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, can be 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 in Georgetown, KY 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.

Empowers Seniors

Affordable Care Plans

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:

Veteran's Benefits
Veteran's Benefits

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

Long-Term Care Insurance
Long-Term Care Insurance

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.

Private Insurance
Private Insurance

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.

Life Insurance
Life Insurance

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.


Respite Care Georgetown, KY

During your Care Plan consultation with Always Best Care, your Care Coordinator will speak with you about in-home care costs and what options there may be to help meet your budget needs.

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 Georgetown,KY 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.

 Caregivers Georgetown, KY

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 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:

An assessment of your senior loved one

01

An in-depth discussion of the needs of your senior loved one to remain in their own home

02

Reviewing a detailed Care Plan that will meet your senior loved one's needs

03

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.

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.

Iviši?, part of Kentucky's eight-man freshman class, is not cleared to play against outside competition until he is approved by the NCAA, UK Athletics announced Thursday in a news release. However, Iviši? is eligible to practice with the team and compete in intrasquad games and scrimmages.

A 7-foot-2 center from Croatia, Iviši? won't play in Friday's exhibition versus Georgetown College at Rupp Arena. The Wildcats have one more exhibition Nov. 2 against Kentucky State before opening the regular season Nov. 6 against New Mexico State.

Iviši? was admitted to the university earlier in October. While fellow UK big men Aaron Bradshaw and Ugonna Onyenso rehab their foot injuries, other Wildcats will keep trying to make their mark in the run-up to the regular season.

Freshman guard Rob Dillingham put on a show in last week's Blue-White scrimmage, posting game highs in points (40), assists (seven) and steals (four) in a 100-89 win for the Blue squad. Sophomore Adou Thiero, also suiting up for the victorious Blue team, had 26 points (on 10-of-13 shooting) and nine rebounds. Freshman Jordan Burks contributed 20 points and five rebounds for the Blue team.

Freshmen Justin Edwards (26 points, 10 rebounds) and D.J. Wagner (25 points, seven rebounds, six assists) and seniors Tre Mitchell (14 points, game-high 14 rebounds) and Antonio Reeves (17 points) paced the White team in the loss.

"They (all) want to win. You could tell — they're diving on the floor," UK coach John Calipari said after Saturday's scrimmage. "And this is what practice looks like: They're competitive. I've got some dogs. Winning matters — like the will to win.

"And it can't just be one guy. It's got to be a team full of guys. And it appears as though that's what we have."

Two of those fiery personalities who likely will lead the charge this season are Dillingham and Wagner, who went at each other during the scrimmage. Calipari had no issue with it; he pointed to previous seasons, when he had other competitive guards who enjoyed dueling during practices.

"The thing you don't want is one guy gets it going, so now the other guy tries to do more than he should," Calipari said. "But I thought they did pretty good."

Georgetown College student says moldy dorm is causing illness

GEORGETOWN, Ky. (WTVQ) — “Six months in a dorm room with mold constantly growing everywhere.”

Brittney Winn’s daughter says was living as a Residence Hall Coordinator at Georgetown College before they had her switch rooms due to dangerous mold.

Winn says her daughter is not the only student dealing with this problem.

“I’ve had multiple parents reach out to me after I made my post on Facebook that have also complained of mold growing in the dorms. They’ve reached out to RAs, RHCs, the advisors, everybody that they know and still nothing is being done for their rooms as well,” she said.

The photos Winn posted to Facebook show mold growing on her daughter’s walls as well as her personal belongings.

She says it has caused negative effects on her daughter’s health.

“She’s been fighting upper respiratory infection, she’s been fighting migraines all the sudden from where she’s been so sick from the spores. She’s been really fatigued recently, and she doesn’t understand why, but she’s gotta go get tested for mold poisoning at this point because it’s just so bad,” Winn added.

Parents were not the only people to respond to Winn’s Facebook post from Aug. 16.

Georgetown College’s official Facebook page also commented saying the following:

“The health and safety of our students is our top priority. The vice president for operations and vice president for student life and the facility director are all working on this situation and have been in active contact with the student. All the options to resolve the issue are being worked through currently.”

“When they initially commented I knew it was they were trying to save face and try to say that they’re doing stuff when they’re really not,” Winn told us.

Winn says the school has been in contact with her daughter; they promised her they would start working to get the room clean as well as giving her industrial garbage bags to put her moldy belongings away for cleaning, but…

“They never even brought her the industrial garbage bags to clean her room, never brought her any gloves, no mask, no nothing and the room still has not even been looked at or reviewed or nothing from the school.”

Winn tells us she has had multiple lawyers reach out and is not hesitant to file a lawsuit.

“I don’t want it to go that far, I really don’t, but if it comes down to it I’ll definitely reach out to a lawyer to get the situation resolved because it’s not just me it’s other parents and children as well that are living in these conditions,” she said.

We reached out to the college and they provided us with the following statement:

“At the beginning of the fall semester, we responded to the report of mold in a student’s room. We moved the student into another room in the same residence hall. All affected items were left behind to prevent the mold from spreading. Our team has been working with the student to replace these items. The student is. Residence hall coordinator and therefore has access to the room.

We are sorry the student had this experience. We are committed to providing all students with the Georgetown College experience, which includes a learning and living environment that allows them to focus fully on their studies. Our maintenance team has been working to determine the cause of the mold in the student’s former room and is working to eradicate it, which is part of a larger, multi-phase plan to update the HVAC systems in our oldest buildings.”

“I know on that comment she said they’re working on getting the HVAC systems updated but at this point, is it really the HVAC systems creating all this mold and if it is then why are you having students and endangering their lives by putting them in a room infested with mold?” Winn said.

Winn added this has been a problem even before her daughter attended the school, and she hopes it’s resolved soon.

Beloved Georgetown Thai restaurant for sale so owner can care for sick wife

A Georgetown restaurant that’s drawn raves for its authentic Thai food is for sale and fans are heartbroken over why.

Owner Chaiyuth Satta is selling New Thai Garden so he can have more time to care for his wife, Sudarut, who is battling lung cancer, according to a GoFundMe page set up by Sydney and Kelsey Raulinaitis, sisters who are regulars at the locally-owned restaurant.

Satta was not immediately available for comment but he told Herald-Leader reporting partner WKYT that he’s hoping to spend more time with her and has to sell “to do the best thing for my wife.”

It’s unclear if the restaurant could remain open. Sydney Raulinaitis said that Satta is willing to train a buyer if they want to take over the existing menu.

She also said they wanted to help “really because it’s our family’s favorite restaurant” and they ate there frequently growing up, when there weren’t as many Thai options in Georgetown.

“Now we live in Lexington and drive up there get Thai food because it’s just the best,” she said.

Raulinaitis said on Thursday morning they raised the amount they are seeking to $1,500 after their original goal of $1,000 in donations had been met.

“Honestly, I don’t think he fully understands how much we’re raising for him. He’s very humble and grateful,” she said.

New Thai Garden at 221 N. Broadway in Georgetown opened in 2008 and remains open on most weekdays for lunch and dinner.

Sutta and his wife found out about her illness in May and a week ago he announced online that the business and building are for sale. Customers immediately expressed sympathy and the GoFundMe page was set up in response, to help offset financial needs for the couple and their three children.

“Not only was this restaurant unique to Georgetown, but so was the familiar and friendly way Chaiyuth treated his customers. Always in the back cooking, but always taking time to poke his head out to say “hi” or ask about family members with a big smile on his face. Always wondering how he kept up with all the sit-down and to-go orders. Always amazed with the consistency of the cuisine,” the organizers of the GoFundMe page wrote. “These are the details that make a small business so special and loved. Details that always make us smile when we think about Thai Garden.”

Customers began leaving big tips, including one for $500 on a $25.41 tab, according to a post on the restaurant’s Facebook page.

Satta is thankful for the community response over the years as well as in his time of need.

“Thank you so much, everybody, for enjoying my food, thank you so much,” he told WKYT.

Sutta moved to the US from Thailand in the 90′s. He opened New Thai Garden in Georgetown after spending ten years in the military.

Since it opened in 2008, New Thai Garden is Sutta’s home away from home.

In May, Sutta and his wife received heartbreaking news.

“My wife, something happened to her; she got lung cancer,” Sutta said.

Chaiyuth knew he had to sell his restaurant to get the treatment his wife needed.

“I have to sell. I have to do the best thing for my wife,” Sutta said.

Raulinaitis is a regular at the restaurant and was heartbroken to hear the news.

“We were distraught, we came. We were like, we have to come the next day, make sure they’re still open,” Raulinaitis said.

The restaurant will be open until Sutta sells it. He hopes to sell it soon so he can take care of his wife.

“I have to spend time with her a lot, it’s better,” Sutta Said.

Raulinaitis started a GoFundMe to help with medical expenses and support the family during this difficult time.

“I think it’s part of my duty as being a loyal customer for all these years. I know other people love it as much as we do, and we just wanna spread awareness,” Raulinaitis said

Sutta is grateful for the bonds he’s built in his home away from home.

“Thank you so much, everybody, for enjoying my food, thank you so much,” Sutta said.

The Scott County African American Heritage Association met with Georgetown Mayor Burney Jenkins after a sign meant to honor the history of those buried at Old Georgetown Cemetery was removed by the city.

Member Willa Gentry of the Scott County African American Heritage Association said the association has spent years cleaning up the cemetery and learning the history of those buried there. The association put the sign up to honor them. Gentry was frustrated that the sign was taken down.

The sign identifies the cemetery, notes its first documented burial in 1818, and provides insight into the history of the cemetery.

“There’s no reason for him to take the sign down, and there’s nothing derogatory on the sign, everything on the sign is historical,” Gentry said.

Gentry was informed by the Scott County Road Department that the mayor requested the sign be removed. Gentry said she didn’t want the sign taken away by the mayor’s office and has held onto it since then.

Gentry said the local heritage association went to the county office and found the deed to the cemetery, which says the cemetery ownership rights are unknown. Because of that, Gentry believes the sign should be allowed to stay up.

In the last two years of her involvement, Gentry said the local heritage association hasn’t faced any problems with past projects at the cemetery. The group installed a new flag pole and replaced 22 damaged headstones with help from the Department of Defense.

Gentry said the association is currently waiting for the arrival of a pioneer cemetery marker and still working to uncover more of the lost headstones.

To further honor the cemetery, Gentry said she has been working on researching each individual headstone and family because “there’s so much history that needs to be told.”

As a veteran, Gentry said she was hooked the first time she went to the cemetery. She saw emblems from the U.S. Colored Infantry and 9th and 10th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers. Those groups of soldiers dated back to the Civil War and post-Civil War era, according to the U.S. National Parks Service and the National Museum of the United States Army.

Although it’s named the Old Georgetown Cemetery, many knew the nickname to be the “Old Colored Cemetery” due to the number of Black people buried there, according to Gentry.

“That’s what upsets me about not wanting the sign because those stories need to be told,” Gentry said.

In a statement to the Herald-Leader, the mayor’s office said it did not oppose the initiative from the African American Heritage Association, but the mayor’s office wanted to be consulted in the process.

“The signage was removed because the City was not consulted regarding the sign’s placement, the narrative on the sign, etc.,” the city said in a statement. “The City of Georgetown has no opposition to this initiative; as the party ultimately responsible for the maintenance of this public cemetery, we simply need to be involved in the process.”

After meeting with the mayor Wednesday, Gentry said Jenkins expressed concern that the sign could offend some people. Gentry said specifics weren’t provided on issues with the sign.

The mayor’s office didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment from the Herald-Leader.

“How we gonna deal with the complaint when we don’t know what the complaint is?” Gentry said.

The group plans to go in front of the city council July 10.
