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 Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument in Cleveland, OH 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 Cleveland, 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 Edgewater Park in Cleveland, OH 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 Dante or visit Ball-Wilson house, 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 Cleveland, 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 Cleveland, 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 Cleveland, 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.

Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles dedicated the Cleveland Ohio Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Sunday, August 16, 2026,
On the same day, Church President Dallin H. Oaks dedicated the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple.
“A temple is a point of intersection between heaven and earth,” Elder Bednar said following the single dedicatory session on Sunday morning, which was broadcast to Church meetinghouses throughout the temple district and rebroadcast later in the afternoon.
“I cannot imagine a more important blessing than having greater access to the power of godliness through the ordinances of the temple,” he said, noting the significant sacrifices Latter-day Saints in many parts of the world and in the Church’s history have made to attend the temple at least once in their lifetimes.
Whenever a temple is nearby, “we have to be intentional and not let the ease of proximity become a barrier to receiving the blessings that we need in our lives,” he added.
The Cleveland Ohio Temple is located in northeastern Ohio about 20 miles southwest of the historic Kirtland Temple, which was dedicated in 1836 but is now one of the Church’s historic sites open for daily tours to the public.
The Kirtland Temple was a key site in the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ, said Elder Kyle S. McKay, Church Historian and Recorder. “Kirtland represents a little bit of a promise and a beginning, and I think Cleveland can represent a fulfillment of that promise or a continuation of that hope and promise.”
The Cleveland temple is the second dedicated house of the Lord in the state. The Columbus Ohio Temple, located 125 miles from Cleveland, was dedicated in 1999, and the Cincinnati Ohio Temple was announced in April 2024.
The Church’s 221st operating temple will serve the more than 12,000 Latter-day Saints in the Cleveland, Akron, Hiram and Kirtland stakes.
Elder Bednar was accompanied by his wife, Susan; Elder K. Brett Nattress, General Authority Seventy and assistant executive director of the Temple Department, and his wife, Shawna; Elder Mark D. Eddy, General Authority Seventy and assistant executive director of the Temple Department, and his wife, Annette; Elder Alan T. Phillips, General Authority Seventy and member of the Church’s United States Northeast Area Presidency, and his wife, Lindsey; and Bishop Sean Douglas, Second Counselor in the Presiding Bishopric, and his wife, Ann.
Thousands of people attended the public open house between June 18 and July 3. During this time, the Church received four separate proclamations of support in recognition of the temple’s opening from the Ohio House of Representatives, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, Ohio Treasurer Robert Sprague and Cleveland Mayor Justin M. Bibb.

“The establishment of the Cleveland Ohio Temple reflects the continued growth and dedication of the Church and its members, whose contributions have enriched communities across our state through service, volunteerism, and civic engagement,” LaRose wrote in a certification of commendation.
The proclamation from Mayor Bibb states: “The Cleveland Ohio Temple represents a commitment to faith, community service, and the strengthening of families, principles that align with the shared goals of civic harmony and mutual respect in the City of Cleveland.”
Nearly 66,000 Latter-day Saints meet in almost 130 congregations across the state of Ohio.

The Carolina Panthers visit the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, September 27, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. ET from Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, OH.
Both the Cleveland Browns and Carolina Panthers enter at 1-1 on the season.
Carolina brings the league lead in passing yards per game at 312.5 and sits tied for first in passing touchdowns. Cleveland has allowed 26.5 points per game with 1 interception through two weeks.
Cleveland has allowed 131.5 rushing yards per game. Carolina has allowed 31 points per game and 419 total yards per game.
Below, we'll give you all the details you need to know about how to watch this game.
Carolina's passing attack has been the best in the league through two weeks, and Young is the reason. He has thrown for 648 yards and 6 touchdowns against just 1 interception, and the Panthers lead the NFL in passing yards per game at 312.5 while sitting tied for first in passing touchdowns. In the win over Atlanta, he went 23 of 36 for 287 yards and 3 touchdowns without a turnover.
Cleveland has allowed 26.5 points per game through two weeks, and Young's accuracy against a Browns defense with only 1 interception all season gives Carolina a clear advantage in this one.
Carolina's offense has stayed balanced behind Hubbard's work on the ground and through the air. He has 102 rushing yards on 22 carries this season, a 4.6-yard average, with 1 rushing touchdown, and in the win over Atlanta he added 2 catches for 11 yards and a score.
Cleveland has allowed 131.5 rushing yards per game through two weeks, and that soft run defense hands Hubbard a favorable matchup to keep piling up touches.
Cleveland's passing game has been up and down, but Watson just turned in his cleanest performance of the season. He completed 24 of 30 passes for 238 yards and 2 touchdowns with no interceptions against Tampa Bay, and added 22 rushing yards on 7 carries. For the year, he has thrown for 443 yards, 3 touchdowns and 1 interception while completing 76.9 percent of his passes.
Carolina's defense has allowed 31 points per game through two weeks, and a repeat of that accuracy would give Cleveland a real chance against a Panthers defense that has otherwise thrived on takeaways.
Carolina's defense has given up plenty of yardage early, and no one on Cleveland is better positioned to take advantage than Boston. The rookie has 7 catches for 154 yards and 2 touchdowns through two games, both of them long scores, and he caught 5 of 7 targets for 95 yards and a 55-yard touchdown against Tampa Bay.
The Panthers have allowed 419 total yards per game through two weeks, and Boston's 22-yard average per catch makes him the vertical threat most likely to stretch that defense on Sunday.
