TESTIMONIALS

“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 Paris, KY

How does In-home Senior Care in Paris, 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.

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 Paris, 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 Paris, 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 Paris, 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 Paris,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 Paris, 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.

PARIS, Ky. (LEX 18) — A farm in Bourbon County unveiled the design of its corn maze for the upcoming season.

Middle Springs Family Farm shared that their corn maze is in the shape of Kentucky, adding in major roadways and the words “Get lost in a-maze-ing KY.”

It’s not your ordinary corn maze.

“Rather than getting lost, you’re looking at finding places,” said farm owner Justin Menke.

Visitors will be tasked with finding 12 Kentucky cities that are across the maze.

“Bring your McNally; pull out your road map,” said Justin’s wife Susie.

In each city, visitors will find facts about those places.

“It’s not too crazy,” Susie said. “Nobody is going to get too lost in there, but it’s enough to keep you having fun finding all 12 cities.”

The farm is seasonal, also offering a pumpkin patch, sunflower fields, wildflowers, and play areas for kids.

The husband and wife duo who owns the farm hope it attracts more than just kids.

"It adds something more for the older kids who say, ‘ugh I’m too old for the pumpkin patch,’” Susie said. “We certainly went out and explored corn mazes into our college years, so maybe that's just us and how we ended up here."

The farm will be open each weekend from September to the end of October, starting on September 9.

Even after scoring a total of 108 points in two wins this season, the Paris Greyhounds knew they’d have to step up their game to compete with perennial Class A contender Hazard.

The Bulldogs came into Blanton Collier Stadium with a Herald-Leader preseason No. 4 ranking and a 1-1 record that included a win over Class 5A’s Harlan County, a much bigger school.

But in Paris’ 22-6 victory Friday night, it was the Greyhounds who looked like a top-10 team despite a rough start and a few big-game jitters.

“We really weren’t ready for them,” confessed senior two-way standout Jakari Ransom, who scored the Greyhounds’ first touchdown on a 28-yard run in the second quarter to tie the game 6-6. “At halftime, we came in, we talked about it and we stepped up big both on defense and offense.”

Ransom’s score answered a first quarter Hazard TD pass from Max Pelfrey to Gaige Logan, but each team had difficulty gaining momentum. Both had drives end with a turnover on downs, and Hazard got an interception to start the second quarter.

But after the 6-6 tie at half, Paris began winning the field position battle early in the third quarter and got a hard-nosed, tackle-breaking 20-yard touchdown run from Jaiden Holman that gave the Greyhounds a 14-6 lead after quarterback Julius Gregory found Ransom in the end zone for the two-point conversion.

“I pulled the linemen to the side and said it’s on y’all,” Paris coach Tyquan Rice said of a group that includes Zian Webb, Cordre Patterson, King Lee and Jansen Tobin. “And they kind of changed the momentum. They put their foot on the gas and we were able to get a couple of good runs.”

Paris’ defense forced a quick three-and-out on the Bulldogs’ next possession and a sideways punt set the Greyhounds’ offense up in Hazard territory. A few plays later, Elijah Webb broke loose for a 10-yard touchdown and Paris cashed another Gregory to Ransom two-point pass for the final margin.

After a first half filled with mistakes and missed opportunities, Paris had scored two touchdowns in a three-minute span and taken control of the game.

“You’ve just got to fight through it,” Elijah Webb said. “We just had to come out and play hard, keep our composure and play harder than we did in the first half.”

Holman led Paris with 118 rushing yards and had a leaping second-half interception on defense. Ransom racked up 101 yards rushing to go with 45 yards receiving. Elijah Webb added 67 yards on the ground. Despite giving up a 62-yard Pelfrey run in the first quarter, Paris’ defense ended up allowing Hazard only 43 rushing yards thanks to a bad snap and sack of Pelfrey in the fourth quarter.

With big wins over Frankfort (50-0), Paintsville (58-12) and Hazard, Paris’ confidence is high.

“I feel we’re a great team, really great,” Ransom said. “Everybody’s stepping up.”

Paris moves to 3-0 for the first time since 2017, but the schedule ahead gets harder with a road trip to Class 5A Montgomery County next week and red-hot Class 3A Rockcastle County coming to town after that. Then it’s former district rival Bishop Brossart ahead of the new District 6 slate of Nicholas County, Raceland and Fairview.

But Rice isn’t looking that far ahead.

“I’m looking forward to next week. It’s week-to-week with me,” Rice said. “I’m already on to getting film for Montgomery County, but I tell you, we’re in an interesting spot. Nobody expected us to be here. I’m proud to be a Greyhound and glad to be right here.”

PARIS, Ky. (LEX 18) — A student at Paris High School was on a field trip today, and that’s something that didn’t seem possible 24 hours earlier when she began choking inside the school’s cafeteria.

“Her face was really, really dark and getting darker. She couldn’t speak, so that was kind of the first trigger,” said Assistant Principal Rob McCann.

Mr. McCann has a background in biology, so he knew exactly what was happening. Without panicking, or even making enough of a ruckus to get the attention of most others in the cafeteria, McCann performed the Heimlich maneuver on the student in distress.

“Actually did it three times and the third time she finally, not sure there’s a good word for it, but she puked out the food,” he explained in detail.

But McCann wasn’t convinced the episode was over. He wanted to make certain that her airway was all clear.

“So I told her I was going to do a finger sweep and I reached in there and grabbed the rest of the food,” he continued.

Mr. McCann said he never before had to perform the Heimlich maneuver, but he did spend a dozen years as a lifeguard as a younger man. That experience undoubtedly served him well in this situation.

“Just see the situation and react,” he said when asked if he was scared for the student’s life.

McCann said the student was a little rattled by the incident, and he reached out to check on her later in the day. He also called her parents to let them know what happened. They thanked him for what he did.

Teachers are known for having a huge impact on their students’ lives, and McCann feels that everyone on staff at Paris High School is doing just that. His impact just happened to go a little above and beyond. His boss, Steve Ely, in casual conversation, said of McCann that he’s the best hire he’s made.

There’s at least one student inside that building who would wholeheartedly agree.
