It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always.
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Chagrin Falls West Side Historic District gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Chagrin Falls, OH is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is 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 gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Riverside Park with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local The Reserve or visit Chagrin Falls Historical Society, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

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 - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
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, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Chagrin Falls, OH, 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.
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.
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 a nursing home. 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.
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 and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often 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 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.
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:
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 Chagrin Falls, OH 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.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care 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:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
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.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Chagrin Falls, OH 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
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.

No one looks better in Taylor Swift merch than Taylor Swift.
On Tuesday afternoon, the Grammy-winning singer was spotted on a lunch date with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, wearing a shirt from her own merch collection.
Swifties wasted no time identifying the piece, quickly figuring out it was a “1989 (Taylor’s Version)”-themed poplin shirt ($50) printed with flying seagulls.
This isn’t the first time she’s been snapped in her merchandise. In 2019, Swift stepped out in a long-sleeve floral top with “Taylor Swift” emblazoned on the sleeve, which was for her “Lover” album.
The “Cruel Summer” singer, 35, appeared to have styled the button-up with the same pleated Sandy Liang skort she wore for a 2024 day date in Malibu with Kelce, as seen in a photo shared on X.
Naturally, die-hard fans are living for the fashion moment. “SHE’S WEARING HER OWN MERCH?!? OH TAYCUTIE WHAT A WOMAN U ARE,” one user wrote on the aforementioned app.
“I saw Taylor swift wearing her own merch so I bought her merch,” another joked next to a screenshot of their purchase.
A third said, “tay wearing her own merch because she spent her eras tour earnings on the masters omfg stream ttpd and go buy yourself something on the website”
On June 11, Swift launched her summer 2025 merchandise collection, which runs the gamut from terrycloth polo tops to beach bags.
For his lunch-date look, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, wore a blue short-sleeve striped top.
Swift and Kelce were spotted dining at JoJo’s Bar in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, close to the football player’s hometown of Cleveland Heights.
“They had a great lunch, enjoyed our food and were really impressed with the team,” the restaurant’s manager John Ponyicky told People.
“Travis grew up in Cleveland Heights, so he decided to visit somewhere he was familiar with.”
The day prior, the “New Heights” podcast co-host was in Chardon, Ohio, for the Alex’s Way charity golf tournament at the Sand Ridge Golf Club, according to a photo posted on a Kelce brothers fan page.

CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio — Taylor Swift fans rushed to Chargin Falls after hearing Swift was in the area, but many of them had to shake it off after missing her by a few hours.
Not even the cruel summer heat could keep these young girls, women and grandmothers away from trying to spot the singer.
"My granddaughter was all excited and called her friend, and so I came down to see if she was really here," said Diane Martin.
The word of Taylor Swift's appearance at JoJo's Italian American Steak Bar got around Northeast Ohio fast. But most of the crowd was not fast enough, leaving them down bad.
"I was very disappointed because she is my idol and I was excited to see her up close," said Valentina Ramirez.
Ramirez even brought a souvenir, hoping to get it signed by the 14 Grammy Award-winning pop singer.
"This is the Eras Tour book, and inside is a bunch of unseen things from that tour," said Ramirez.
Many people were ready to shed tears over the "You Belong With Me" singer, like 10-year-old Hannah and her 6-year-old sister Rosie.
"I would have cried and have been so excited. If Taylor Swift didn't exist, I don't know what would be on my playlist, "said Hannah.
"I would have kind of cried," said Rosie.
Different fans said they have been waiting for Swift to make an appearance in the area after news broke that Northeast Ohio's Travis Kelce started dating Swift.
"I didn't expect them to come to Chagrin, but he is from Cleveland Heights, so he knows the areas. But it's been a long time coming," said Hannah Jamieson.
But there is no bad blood between the fans and Swift.
"Taylor Swift, come back, we want to see you," said Ramirez.
The sighting of Swift and Kelce came after Kelce was in Cleveland, supporting friend Patrick Bacon's charity golf tournament in Chardon on Monday, according to the Kelce Brothers' Instagram page.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift going out near his Ohio hometown hits different.
After the loved-up couple were photographed having lunch at JoJo’s Bar in Chagrin Falls on Tuesday, a restaurant manager gushed to People about the “wonderful” date.
“They had a great lunch, enjoyed our food and were really impressed with the team,” John Ponyicky told the outlet. “Travis grew up in Cleveland Heights, so he decided to visit somewhere he was familiar with.”
The employee called Kelce and Swift, both 35, “really pleasant” customers.
“They sat at the bar for a bit, but also had a private lunch in a private room,” he continued. “Taylor and Travis … had a wonderful time.”
Photos of the pair circulated via X, showing Kelce seated with his back to the camera in a striped blue T-shirt.
The pop star, for her part, rocked a loose white top and a pleated tan skirt while wearing her hair in a ponytail.
Social media users raved over the low-key date, with one gushing, “Well this is just really f–king cute.”
Another noted, “We have seen her out more in this last year than in the last 10 I’m so happy for her.”
The outing came one day after Kelce attended the Alex’s Way charity golf tournament at the Sand Ridge Golf Club in Chardon, Ohio.
The tight end’s NFL offseason — combined with Swift wrapping her years-long Eras Tour last year — has reportedly led to “a turning point in their relationship in a lot of ways.”
A source told People that the duo is “incredibly happy and in sync,” adding, “There’s a calmness and ease to their relationship right now that’s been really grounding for Taylor and Travis.”

“Soaking up every minute of this slower season” with “rare … downtime” has “really allowed their bond to deepen,” the insider shared.
“They’ve been splitting their time between New York, Nashville and a few quiet getaways, just enjoying each other’s company without all the usual chaos,” according to the outlet.
Kelce and Swift became an item in the summer of 2023, with the tight end going viral Tuesday for revealing the one aspect of their high-profile romance that he “miscalculate[d]” — the paparazzi.
“I’m just playing golf and all of the sudden in the trees there’s just a f–king guy with a camera,” he explained to “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast listeners. “I can’t just go over here and take a piss.”
The Kansas City Chiefs player quipped, “Just don’t want my meat on Page Six, know what I mean?”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce took their “love story” to Ohio.
The couple was spotted on a low-key lunch date at JoJo’s Bar in Chagrin Falls on Tuesday, per local outlet WKYC.
Photos circulating on social media from the outing in the Cleveland area showed the “Fortnight” hitmaker sitting at a table with two other people.
An eyewitness told the outlet that one of the men pictured was her athlete beau.
The singer, 35, was spotted wearing a loose-fitting long-sleeved white shirt with her hair pulled back in a ponytail.
The Kansas City Chiefs star made an appearance in Chardon, Ohio, on Monday for the Alex’s Way charity golf tournament at the Sand Ridge Golf Club, per a fan account.
The casual sighting of the lovebirds came after the Cleveland Heights native made a confession about his high-profile relationship with the pop star.
During his appearance on Tuesday’s episode of the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast, Kelce, 35, was asked whether he “miscalculate[d]” anything about dating the Grammy winner.
The NFL player admitted he was forced to adjust to the level of paparazzi scrutiny in his life.
“That’s probably the only thing I didn’t really grasp until you’re in it. That’s probably the craziest thing,” the tight end said.
“Like, I’m just playing golf and all of the sudden in the trees there’s just a f–king guy with a camera,” he continued. “Like, ah s–t. I gotta go to the restroom now. I can’t just go over here and take a piss.”
Kelce clarified with the hosts that he has “never been ashamed of slamming beers” before he name-dropped us on the episode.
“Just don’t want my meat on Page Six, know what I mean?” he quipped.
The three-time Super Bowl winner also responded to claims that they go on public dates to “seek attention.”
He explained, “We’re having fun with it, being a couple. … We’re just enjoying life and having fun.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made the day of a local business near the Kansas City Chiefs star’s hometown.
Swift and Kelce, both 35, had lunch at JoJo’s Bar in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, on Tuesday, July 1. Chagrin Falls is right outside of Cleveland Heights, where Kelce was raised.
“We were lucky enough to have a special visitor today at JoJo’s,” Michael Dei Maggi, the corporate chef and culinary director for NCR Ventures, which owns JoJo’s, told Cleveland.com on Tuesday. “It’s a huge deal for us. We try to approach every single guest visit as if they’re super VIP.”
Del Maggi added, “We have the ability to create some really cool, sequestered spaces and high-security private spaces for those very rare occasions that you have rock and roll and football royalty in the restaurant.”
The couple originally hoped to dine at 17 River Grille, another NCR restaurant in Chagrin Falls, but Del Maggi said JoJo’s was better equipped to handle the A-list couple’s privacy requirements.
Swift and Kelce used a side door from the Inn of Chagrin to enter the restaurant for their meal.
“We’re connected to JoJo’s,” Inn of Chagrin managing partner Molly Gebler told Cleveland’s 3News on Tuesday. “There’s a door in our lobby that goes right into JoJo’s. “We’re a little quieter right now; there aren’t any people in our lobby, so I’m sure that was probably their intent.”
While Swift and Kelce managed to keep things low-key, one JoJo’s employee had a brief moment of shock upon seeing them.
“First I was caught off guard,” JoJo’s co-manager Ryan Schwartz told 3 News. “Someone’s like, ‘Oh my God, Taylor Swift’s here.’ I’m like, ‘No way.’ So I was kind of sneaking up to take a little look, and it was her.”
Schwartz added, “Of course, she had her security detail with her, so we chose as a restaurant group to kind of just respect her privacy.”
JoJo’s lunch menu includes specialties like crispy chicken limone pasta, a turkey burger and a chicken milanese sandwich. Starters include JoJo’s Nantucket clam chowder, jumbo Maryland crab cakes and house-made wedding soup.
After word got out that Swift and Kelce were dining at the restaurant, fans began flocking there in hopes of catching a glimpse of the couple.
“She’s beautiful, her music’s wonderful,” Renee Miano told 3News. “I was hoping to see her, but they said that she’s probably on her way to the airport.”
Swift and Kelce were in town so Kelce could support his friend Patrick Bacon at the Alex’s Way Charity Golf Tournament in Chardon, Ohio, on Monday, June 30.
