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 The Thoroughgood House 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 Virginia Beach, VA 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 First Landing State 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 Steinhilber's Restaurant or visit New Cape Henry Lighthouse, 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 Virginia Beach, VA, 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 Virginia Beach, VA 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 Virginia Beach, VA 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.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — A local nurse anesthetist permanently surrendered his license following an investigation by the Virginia Board of Nursing that alleged he had non-consensual conduct with patients while they were sedated.
According to Consent Order documents by the Virginia Board of Nursing obtained by 13News Now, Kevin Coolong was a certified registered nurse anesthetist at Atlantic Anesthesia from June 2008 to August 2024, when he resigned.
During that time documents show Coolong had 4 incidents of non-consensual contact with patients.
Records show the most recent incident was February 2024, when Coolong's patient, who he sedated before her C-section, complained that "she didn't like his vibe" and that he put his thumb in her mouth.
In response to the complaint, Coolong stated that her airway was obstructed and he used his thumb to open her mouth.
Documents show Coolong was removed from his assignments and required to take a course on professional boundaries.
During the course, records show Coolong admitted to the course proctor and other participants that he had inappropriately touched three other patients in recent years.
Documents show Coolong was dismissed from the course and underwent an evaluation in September 2024.
During that evaluation, records show Coolong admitted to kissing a patient while her eyes were closed in December 2017, admitted to inappropriately touching a patient in August 2018, and admitted to kissing another patient while her eyes were closed in April 2022.
Documents show during his evaluation, Coolong stated that he "desperately craves love and affection beyond what is normal" and he "thought he could get away with the conduct because he thought the patients would like it."
Records also reveal the certified sex offender treatment provider who administered Coolong's evaluation included adjustment disorder with combined anxiety and depressed mood, narcissistic and antisocial personality traits in his diagnostic impression.
The consent order shows in May, Coolong agreed to a permanent voluntary surrender of his nursing license in Virginia.
We reached out to Atlantic Anesthesia for comment, who responded that “due to the confidential and sensitive nature of this matter, Atlantic Anesthesia is unable to provide a statement.”

In the earliest days of the Build-Outs feature series, we set out to take submissions on cafes that were active construction sites. Show us your works in progress! Take us behind the scenes!
Over the years this has evolved to a more big tent approach to Builds, and this year we’re featuring any cafe that’s opened in the year 2025. But we will always have a soft spot for Build-Out features in situ, that harken back to the original concept of the feature series. Such is the scene today at Pinup Coffee Co. in Virginia Beach, which won’t open until later this fall. Here you have an inside work at a cafe in embryo, still dreaming of what it someday will be. What a treat—a true pleasure. Let’s learn more!
As told to Sprudge by Stephanie Wein.
The 2025 Build-Outs of Coffee is sponsored by Pacific Barista Series, La Marzocco, Ceado, and Dona.
For those who aren’t familiar, will you tell us about your company?
Our mission is to craft better coffee for all. Our passion for craftsmanship is about much more than just creating better tasting, approachable specialty coffee. For us it’s about about bringing vibrance to the lives of each person involved and being conscious of doing the right thing. We roast our coffee with care to showcase each coffee’s incredible flavor, and we love to share the good vibes with local tastings, events, and gatherings.
From single origin and limited releases, to blends named after WWII aircraft pin-up art; grabbing a bag of Pinup coffee reminds us that the good stuff is waiting at home! Our cafes (and our Roastery) are designed with this approachable yet high-quality design to encourage being together over great coffee, and savoring each sip considering all of the hard-working hands that created it. Our first cafe (Pinup Coffee Co Cafe at Farmhouse) is truly a local hub, where we partner with Back Bay Brewing on events that celebrate all things local. The new build at Sherwood Lakes will take this vision to a new level, including a kitchen and ample indoor and outdoor seating space.
Can you tell us a bit about the new space?
The new build is called The Traditions at Sherwood Lakes, it is near bustling areas of Virginia Beach; between Red Mill and Pungo, and next to other incredible local establishments and housing areas. Construction on the shell build is just finishing up, and our architect is working on our design and layout, with final opening dates estimated as fall 2025. The space is about 2,500 square feet and has a 420-square-foot covered patio overlooking the lake, we plan to utilize the space to create a welcoming area for all to enjoy specialty coffee. This includes group tables, bar seating, a merch/coffee bag area, a small kitchen with bites designed by a local chef, locally sourced ingredients, and of course our roasted coffee.
What’s your approach to coffee?
Our approach to specialty coffee is to use incredible coffees for our blends—creating welcoming favorites for customers to fall in love with; and small-lot traceable single origin coffees for customers to explore and appreciate. Our blends are post-roast blended to ensure each coffee is roasted to its full potential. Our single origin coffee offerings are very selective as well—we aim to work with the best suppliers with direct ties to the farm, whom we trust to do right by coffee farmers. For us, coffee is about appreciating each step in the chain, from the farmer to the end drinker.
Any machines, coffees, special equipment lined up?
We are going to put in a La Marzocco Linea PB, Mahlkönig E65 GbW grinders, batch brewers, pour-over stations, and more. We are a partner of La Marzocco and service our equipment in-house.
How is your project considering sustainability?
Our business utilizes sustainability practices that align well with our locality—meaning we use recyclable 12 ounce bags that can be recycled here. We also utilize local partners like Tidewater compost for our chaff and grinds, and donate our jute bags to local farms. Our Sherwood Cafe will follow suit with sustainable food packaging, recyclable cups, and promote “use your own clean cup” at the bar.
What’s your hopeful target opening date/month?
October 2025
Are you working with craftspeople, architects, and/or creatives that you’d like to mention?
The architect is local Iconic Dezigns, who will work with our brand designers from Brandt Creative Co. Kitchen and menu design will incorporate the expertise and craftsmanship of local The Silver Fox Food Truck, and we use baked goods from Top Knot Artisan Bakery.
Thank you!
Thank you for considering us!

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Virginia will honor 12 brave first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice at the Richmond International Raceway Complex on Saturday.
One of those honorees is Virginia Beach master firefighter Matt Gallina, a beloved husband and father. He lost his life last year to occupational esophageal cancer.
The 28th Annual Virginia Fallen Firefighters & EMS Memorial Service, a solemn occasion, is being held in accordance with the Virginia Line of Duty Act. Governor Youngkin will be the guest speaker.
For Gallina's wife, Michelle, the moment will be bittersweet.
"You want to go and you want to enjoy the camaraderie and the support and the love, but it's difficult because you remember why you're there," Michelle said.
Since Gallina's death, Michelle has been channeling her grief into advocacy, determined to ensure that Matt's sacrifice, and the sacrifices of countless other firefighters battling occupational cancers, are not in vain.
"These cancers are very rare that firefighters are dealing with, and not only rare but aggressive and fast and horrible, just horrible cancer," Michelle said.
Michelle is now a fierce advocate for increased screenings and immediate treatment for firefighters.
The hardest part of Matt's death is not being able to make new memories. This weekend, he will miss his daughter's prom and her high school graduation next week. Michelle does her best to reflect on the good times.
"One of Matt's passions was baseball," Michelle said, standing next to the diamond where she and Matt started the St. John the Apostle Catholic school's baseball team where their son, Lincoln attends. "Life is moving on and it's hard to move on without him."

Saturday's memorial service is a tribute to Virginia's fallen heroes to ensure their service will always be remembered. It's open to the public in the main exhibition hall at the Richmond International Raceway Complex at noon. Those unable to attend can watch the live stream at www.vafire.com.
