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 Apex Historical Society Caboose in Apex, NC 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 Apex, NC is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.
Home Care Services
Service AreasSince 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they get older. We are proud to have helped more than 25,000 seniors maintain higher levels of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of in-home care available so that they may live happily and independently.
Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs. That way, they may provide care accordingly without compromising their wellbeing.
The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life. Whether you are an aging adult that can't quite keep up with life's daily tasks or the child of a senior who needs regular in-home services, Always Best Care is here to help.

“I cannot thank Sanjay and the staff enough for everything they have provided for both my mother and me during one of the most difficult and challenging times in our lives. I have been a RN for 35+ years, with over 25 years in hospice-home health care and thought I truly understood the needs of the family when a loved one needs care. I never realized how much more complicated total responsibility for an elderly family member can be. When my 93 year old, blind, HoH, mother lost her partner of 45 years and could no longer live independently, (her partner was her caregiver), the staff from Always Best Care provided much needed in home care, support, and companionship for my mother while arrangements were being made for her to move into an Assisted Living Facility. They were not only there for scheduled hours, but were available for additional hours on short notice in urgent situations. The support I received was incredible! Thanks to all, especially Sanjay, Kylie, Jen, and Zy. You made a difficult situation much easier. I would and will recommend your agency to anyone needing Homecare services. You have truly been a blessing! ????????????”
“I recently had the pleasure of meeting Kelly Klein with Always Best Care. Kelly was friendly, engaging, and professional throughout our conversation. It’s encouraging to connect with others who share an interest in supporting seniors and their families in our community.”
“I was very fortunate to learn about Always Best Care while helping my parents find a retirement community. Sanjay and Dylan were extremely helpful in guiding us through the search…there are lots of things I did not even consider that Sanjay and Dylan brought to our attention with their expertise. They were both very compassionate and transparent as we navigated the search and I am now very confident that we have found the best retirement community for my parents. Thanks Sanjay and Dylan!”
“Keep up the great work!! Solid company with great infield care and skills.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Sanjay from Always Best Card Senior Services. He was very kind, professional, and respectful during the visit. Sanjay took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure all my questions were answered. His caring attitude and attention to detail really made a difference and made the whole process comfortable and stress-free. I truly appreciate his dedication and the excellent service he provides. I would highly recommend Sanjay to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care.”
“Highly recommend Sanjay and his team. He helped me navigate the challenging process of finding assisted living for my dad. Every person at the company has been kind, patient, professional and reassuring every step of the way. I’m so grateful to Sanjay and Always Best Care. I’ve also used their companion care services, I trust them wholeheartedly with my dad’s care!”
“Sanjay with Always Best Care, has been so helpful to us during a very stressful, worrisome time. While we did not end up using his services (my mom was placed into a hospice home), Sanjay spent a LOT of time speaking with us and helping us to understand the options we had for my mom. Even after mom went into a hospice home, Sanjay cared enough to inquire about her and see how we were doing. Sanjay is kind, compassionate and genuinely cares. He is focused on helping families and patients and we felt VERY at ease with his calm demeanor. I highly recommend seeking him and Always Best Care out if you need in home care for your loved one.”
“Following hip replacement surgery, our 88 year old Mother needed care following her discharge from rehab. All Best Care was one service recommended and they were very responsive with the initial assessment and a follow up meeting the the rehab facility. They helped guide us through some very anxious times and were very flexible in meeting our needs that changed a number of times. Sanjay was informative, kind and considerate assuring us along the way. Kylie was always responsive and adjusted for our needs timely. Even when we wanted a change in the care provider, she was professional and listened. Also, Lisa was responsive worked with us on the billing. Great experience under difficult circumstances. I recommend highly.”
“Always Best Care of Raleigh has been a God send to our family, and has brought Mum back to her life and home. From assessment to companionship and living life together. I 100% recommend and endorse ABC, Sanjay Das and his entire team. They go above and beyond, and focus on the patients wellbeing and care. I cannot recommend them enough.”
“I have been very pleased with the caretakers Always Best Care has sent us. They are well trained and always put my husband's well being first. Lisa, the scheduler, is amazing. This company also spot checks by phone and in person to make sure things are running smoothly, which I think is incredible. I would not have known about this benefit if I had not seen it on camera. Always Best is the 4th home care company I tried and by far they are the best! My husband has Alzheimer's Disease and balance problems. I work away from home part time and he can't be left alone. Most importantly, he looks forward to the visits "with his new friend"”
“Working for ABC Has been a wonderful experience for me very loving caring and I also love the team. I love it.”
“Sanjay and the Always Best Care team have been amazing to work with. During a time of great uncertainty and worry, they assisted me with smoothly transitioning my mom back home with a care plan to suit our needs. I am forever grateful for their support and genuine care. For families in search of a caregiver for their loved ones, I cannot recommend Always Best Care enough. Thank you Sanjay and team!”
“When my loved one needed assistance after a hip replacement I was unsure of where to turn. There are so many options out there. I called several places and never got a good feeling about any of them. Of course, I wanted someone I could trust who would be there to care for her like I would. As soon as I spoke to Sanjay, his demeanor and understanding put me at ease. I knew that my family member would be well taken care of during this time. Everyone on staff at Always Best Care was knowledgeable, friendly, caring, and supportive. They were so great that when the care period was over, my loved one expressed how she was going to miss the staff because they genuinely care for their clients. Sanjay, thank you and your team for being there for us. I had peace of mind at 1300 miles away knowing she had excellent care. I highly recommend ABC! You can't go wrong!”
“Always best care has amazing caregivers as well as office staff. Sanjay is a pleasure to work with and the caregivers haven taken excellent care of my step mother. It is very hard to find good elder care like this. Highly recommend.”
“We were scared... Finding caretakers for my 94-year-old grandma was a daunting and emotional process. We wanted to ensure she was in the hands of people we could trust, and from the moment we met Sanjay, the owner and founder of Always Best Care, we knew we had found something special. Sanjay was kind, insightful, and passionate about providing the best care possible. Our initial meeting with Sanjay gave us the confidence to move forward, and Best Care always exceeded our expectations in every way imaginable. They matched Grandma with the perfect caretakers—she genuinely looks forward to their visits! Now, I can rest easier knowing she receives the best care from people who treat her like family. Words can’t express how grateful we are for Always Best Care. If I could give more than five stars, I would!”
“I’ve known Sanjay and Always Best Care for many years! I worked directly with him and saw how he focused on nothing but his customers best in every single situation! Once I had a need in my own family, he was one of the first people I called. They delivered in a very stressful ALS situation; and made our lives easier. You should definitely contact Always Best Care. I assure you you get the best professional care possible.!!”
“Our parents were in a place in their lives where we needed to relocate them from their beloved small town mountain home to Raleigh to be closer to extended family and better medical facilities for their care. This situation was heart wrenching for us as well as utter confusion, not knowing where to begin the process. We had investigated several assisted living residences in the area, but it wasn't until we were introduced to Sanjay Das that we found some solice in our decision of where to place our parents. Sanjay knew the area extremely well and had valuable information about all the assisted living residences as well as care homes, nursing homes, home health care and such. He not only was kind enough to take multiple calls with endless questions, but met with us to discuss various options in person and for no fee. Sanjay also had knowledge of individual nursing businesses and beyond. He was caring, patient and professional and always encouraged us to contact him with any and all health care needs related to our parents care. We highly recommend anyone in our situation to contact Sanjay for advice. You won't be disappointed. To know someone who is extremely knowledgeable in this area of care for your loved ones is priceless. From the bottom of our hearts Sanjay, thank you!”
“Sanjay was an amazing friend during a very hard time for me and my father. He worked hard to find just the right place for my Dad and never gave up. I highly recommend Sanjay to anyone going through the difficult time of finding the right home for you or your family members.”
“My husband and I first met Sanjay at a Dementia Alliance support group several years ago in Raleigh. He was holding a Men’s Coffee Hangout, a unique gathering of caregivers and partners with dementia. Thanks to Sanjay the setup worked perfectly for us. We were impressed with Sanjay’s humorous and gentle approach to simply “hanging out” with the guys as we caregivers met. Years later we asked Sanjay to help us as a senior advisor when we began our search for a senior living facility. He set us on track, helped us make a chart of priorities and met us on our tours until we found one we liked. He continues today at our community with volunteering with a similar version of the Hangout. He has been an important part of our dementia journey. We feel fortunate to have him both as a supporter and a good friend.”
“I cant speak highly enough of Always ********* and ****** ***. I first met ****** at my local senior citizens center during a program on aging. I immediately found that he was experienced and knowledgeable about senior living options in The Triangle and a really nice guy too.Shortly after our meeting, I contacted ****** to learn more about how my spouse and I could best prepare for our next life chapter. He took the time to address all of my questions and concerns with compassion and care. Then he set up appointments for us to visit several senior living communities in our area. He also provided the name of a chef who prepares meals in seniors kitchens!****** delivered personalized treatment and accompanied us during the senior community visits. He emphasized how we should make our exploration fun and it was! I highly endorse Always ********* for their excellent service and expertise. Planning for our living options with ****** now is an investment in our health and happiness. If youre thinking about where you will live as you grow older, get in touch with Always *********. It will be fun! Dear *****,Thank you so much for kindly taking the time to write a testimonial about your experience with us! We appreciate it more than I can express.Sanjay”

“We met Sanjay when our Dad's health took a quick turn for the worst. We felt his health care team was MIA and had no one to help us navigate this emotional and stressful time. Sanjay quickly answered our call, helped us create a plan and had his team ready to go during a holiday weekend. His aids were all wonderful and Sanjay was always there to answer our questions and concerns. Always Best Care helped us when no one else could. I've already recommended Sanjay and his team and would do so again without hesitation.”
“My mother has been bedridden for over three years now. Always Best Care has taken wonderful care of her in these years. The management has a real desire to give care that is consistent with how they'd want their own family attended to. I appreciate the training they provide to the caregivers and the quick response to any of our concerns. It's been a great partnership.”
“Always Best Care has been an excellent partner in assisting my mother with caring for my elderly father. They are amazingly responsive. I have a single point of contact number (for Melanie), and I get an almost immediate response from her irrespective of what day or time I call/text. I have reached out at 11pm or later; I have reached out on weekends; I have reached out during holidays. In each instance Melanie has responded either immediately or within 5 minutes. They work to build a partnership. I stopped by the office unannounced recently to discuss a coverage issue that had arisen over the holidays. A new caregiver called out twice. (I would like to note that the coverage issues that arose over the holidays were highly unusual and very much outside the norm for ABC.) Sanjay, Anthony, and Melanie took an unplanned 45 minutes to sit with me and discuss my concerns and to outline the plan they had been discussing that very day to ensure we had no further issues. I do not expect any organization to never have any difficulties. The scale by which I measure an organization is 1) Does the organization take ownership of the issue? and 2) Does the organization proactively work to address the issue? ABC scores high on both these vectors. I have recommended ABC both to a coworker and to a close friend. I will continue to recommend them.”
“Sanjay and his staff do amazing work. For your home care needs, give them a call and they will take care of you. Keep up the great work!”
“SanJay and his staff do a wonderful job explaining Senior Care. He was really helpful in Dementia information. He has a tremendous amount of resources to provide.”
“An excellent service, always responsive & provide very compassionate care. Sanjay takes a personal interest in finding the best fit for each client & I've always experienced him treating clients like family. I work for Heartland Hospice and when families I'm working with need a trusted caregiver for this fragile time of life, they have always been there - available to meet in person and start care extremely fast.”
“I am a current client of this provider He can't do without assistance so it has been great assistance. With that being said, there were some caregivers that were better than others. There are some caregivers that are fantastic and there are some who aren't. They need more consistency in the caregivers.”

“I am a current client of this provider My husband's in a care facility that already has staff, and they have supported the permanent staff so he doesn't fall.

“I am a current client of this provider It makes me feel assured that he is being checked on especially during the COVID-19 because I can't visit with him. Everyone that I have met while visiting with my father has been nice and cordial.”
“I am a current client of this provider They are giving her a shower in the morning and they are helping her at night with her dinner. I get feedback from the nurses with my mother so I know what is going on.”

“I am a current client of this provider They are good because I now have less worries. My mom is getting the care that she deserves. That takes the pressure off of me. They always take care of the burdens that I might have. If they were not there I would have to be doing it. So far they are persistent. My mother likes them and she said they treat her good and are nice. They try to make sure that they are consistent. I do not worry too much about my mom getting her medication. They have been very consistent.”
“I am a past client of this provider I like how they just open the door and say hello to me. I have no complaints.”
“I am a current client of this provider I know that somebody is going to be there to help her with her shower. One of the people who worked for her through the other agency was who Mom requested specifically, and she hasn't seen her yet. Almost always someone comes who is new, and she doesn't like that.”
“I am a current client of this provider They make my life easier by making my bed and my coffee, and they are just wonderful. I like that they come in and remember how to do their thing.”
“I am a current client of this provider They do so well with what I ask them to do. They have wonderful personalities and they seem to be so happy in my place. We talk a little and they are so polite and friendly.”
“I am a current client of this provider They have someone come and check on my mother every day in the evening. There is no way I could do that with my time constraints. The people that we have met so far are extremely pleasant and helpful.”
“I am a current client of this provider Most of them will help out in any way they can. Some of them use the dishwasher and the washing machine, and that is nice. Some are very attentive and others will stay on the telephone all the time.”
“I am a current client of this provider I only have one and she is outstanding and I used to have several. They are on the high end of pricing and went to 11 holidays a year. They could improve in consistency of caregivers.”

“I am a past client of this provider They made sure everything was set up properly. I thought the ladies did a good job.”
“I am a past client of this provider I didn't need much help because I am a nurse. She was accurate other than with the medication recommendations. The person that came was not a nurse, but she did medication reconciliation, which was outside of her practice.”
“Sanjay and ABCSS were outstanding to work with. Sanjay walked us through not only their options but gave me his personal observations and suggestions. Day 1 they were there for us and our father. Sanjay was there and spent time with Dad. Top notch service. Thank you.”

“I am a past client of this provider They helped me the most by being dependable and took great care my father. I liked that they were responsive, and they had awesome caregivers.”
“I am a past client of this provider My mom was unresponsive, so for me, it gave me an opportunity to leave the house and do what I needed or wanted to do. Every caregiver was kind, caring, loving, and reliable.”

“I am a current client of this provider We have support, and it makes a difference. They are always available to talk about my dad's care.”
“I am a past client of this provider It helped my mother a whole lot in her daily living. I would like a little better training, but I know they have a budget to make.”
“I am a past client of this provider They were very helpful at the time we had them. I think it could be more affordable. I would recommend them because they were very prompt and flexible. They did what they said they were going to do.”
“I called on a Monday & had a care giver on Tuesday. The caregivers are always on time. Asking if there are any changes to the schedule. They fix her lunch every day and do the dishes. Amy is very attentive to my mother. She ensures she does her exercises like she is supposed to a d even does then with her. The care they give has greatly reduced my stress.”
“I am a past client of this provider I had expectations of my parents, but they were not able to fill that. I still had to be involved in the care. The caregivers did not take all of my duties away I still had to provide part time care. They are personal to the people in their care. The owner gets to know the patients, and I know that he gives extra training for any extra needs. They meet regularly with me to make sure the care is appropriate. They cared about my parents.”
“I am a current client of this provider My loved one doesn't want to do some of the activities they do. I've had success with the people that they've sent, and most of them are older. My loved one can talk to them.”
“I am a past client of this provider My dad has severe dementia, so they would sit with him at night to make sure he didn't pull on his wires. Essentially, they helped keep him alive. They helped us when we needed it most.”
“I am a past client of this provider They were able to help the most by keeping my mom's mind interacted. The caregiver was very personable and interactive with my mom.”
“I am a current client of this provider I don't know what I would do without them. They give my mom a lot of company. I like that they keep me informed about what is going on.”
“I am a current client of this provider The showers are very good, and they wash the clothes very well. The caregiver came to me, and I decided that I would be able to have them take care of my laundry and stuff around my house. They haven't helped me much around the house.”
“I am a past client of this provider They made my loved ones life easier by helping them with their daily activities. I liked the quality time, professionalism and that they did a good job.”
“I am a past client of this provider The best part was the conversations. I had very long conversations with both of them about a lot of things, and it was nice. It was a lot of fun actually. They were interested in me, and I could tell they really cared. We've had a long relationship with them, so we were familiar with them and felt comfortable with them.

They really do try to do the best for their people.”

“I am a current client of this provider When my caregivers aren't here for a day, I have to do what they usually do, and then I truly miss my caregivers. However, they need to be more willing to take me different places. I think the company needs to spend more time training their caregivers how to cook.”

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 Apex Nature Park in Apex, NC 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 Peak on Salem or visit Apex Historical Society, MaynardPearson 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 Apex, NC, 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 Apex, NC 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 Apex, NC 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.

APEX, N.C. (WPTF) — The planned joint Duke-UNC Children’s hospital in Apex is getting a big boost from a major foundation.
North Carolina Children’s (NC Children’s) is receiving a $100 million grant from The Duke Endowment.
NC Children’s will be the first independent, freestanding children’s health system in the Carolinas. The investment will help advance a new model of pediatric care designed to bring specialized treatment closer to home for North Carolina’s 2.3 million children while establishing a national destination for children with complex medical needs.
The grant is the largest philanthropic commitment to date for NC Children’s and follows a $424.7 million investment from the North Carolina General Assembly, adding major private support to a substantial public commitment. According to a press release, the grant confirms The Duke Endowment as an early partner in an effort that will grow as others join.
The grant carries forward a commitment James B. Duke set down in 1924, when his Indenture of Trust established The Duke Endowment as an independent private foundation, separate from Duke University and Duke University Health System.
“For more than a century, The Duke Endowment has been guided by James B. Duke’s philanthropic priorities of improving lives across the Carolinas through healthcare, higher education, a focus on rural communities and a commitment to the well-being of children and families,” said Charles C. Lucas III, chair of The Duke Endowment.
“Our investment in NC Children’s brings those commitments together in an extraordinary way,” said Mr. Lucas. “By supporting the collaboration of institutions that have deep ties to the Endowment, we have an opportunity to expand pediatric care and expertise, advance research and innovation and make a lasting difference for children and families throughout the Carolinas and the region.”
Established in 2025 by Duke Health and UNC Health, NC Children’s will be an independent health system that cares for children and develops specialized programs for complex conditions, including childhood cancer and rare genetic disorders, that are not available in the Carolinas today. The partnership will create something greater than either institution could achieve independently, united by a shared commitment to North Carolina’s children.
Through clinics, telehealth and partnerships with community hospitals and providers, NC Children’s aims to connect children to specialized expertise while supporting the clinicians who already care for them across the region. This approach will help children access advanced treatment when needed and return to their trusted care teams closer to home.
“By bringing together the extraordinary clinical and research strengths of Duke Health and UNC Health, we have an opportunity to develop deeper pediatric expertise, expand research and build specialized programs at an entirely new scale,” said Dr. Thomas A. Owens, lead administrator of NC Children’s and Executive Vice President and Chief Clinical Executive at Duke Health.
“The Duke Endowment’s investment is a major step toward realizing that vision, creating a children’s health system that strengthens care across North Carolina and helps more families access the expertise their children need closer to home,” said Dr. Owens.
For families navigating complex medical conditions, the need for more accessible pediatric care is deeply personal. Amy Clifton, a mother of three from Chatham County, knows firsthand the challenges of coordinating care across multiple hospitals and states. Her son, Noah, spent his first 63 days in a neonatal intensive care unit and now receives care from specialists at Duke Children’s, UNC Children’s, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.
“I dream of the chance to travel nearby for Noah’s care instead of 12 hours,” said Clifton, who serves as a patient advisor to NC Children’s during its architecture and design process. “Having a resource like this in North Carolina will simplify and improve things, and offer hope, for so many families across the state.”
NC Children’s is being developed amid a nationwide decline in pediatric inpatient capacity. Between 2008 and 2022, the number of pediatric inpatient units at U.S. hospitals fell nearly 30 percent, compared with a 4.4 percent decline in adult inpatient units, according to research published in JAMA Pediatrics. The loss of pediatric services has raised concerns about access to hospital care, particularly for children in rural communities, where families may have to travel farther to find providers equipped to care for their children. As these options become more limited, the need for a comprehensive pediatric health system capable of treating complex conditions and connecting families to specialized care becomes increasingly urgent. Plans for the NC Children’s campus in Apex include an approximately 500-bed acute-care children’s hospital, a 70-bed pediatric behavioral health hospital, an ambulatory surgery center, and facilities dedicated to research, medical education, and expanding access to specialized care statewide.
Faculty from the Duke University School of Medicine and the UNC School of Medicine will help train future pediatricians and specialists at NC Children’s, while advancing research and developing new treatments for children with complex medical needs.
“Building a new children’s health system from the ground up is an enormous undertaking, and this investment comes at a critical moment in that process,” said Dr. Ian Buchanan, chief operating officer of NC Children’s. “The Duke Endowment’s investment helps lay the groundwork for a comprehensive pediatric health system that can meet the needs of children and families across the Carolinas.”
Groundbreaking on the Apex campus is planned for 2027, and NC Children’s is expected to open in the early 2030s.
“The Duke Endowment’s $100 million grant is a powerful statement of confidence in the vision for NC Children’s and the people working to bring it to life,” said Morgan Abbott, president of the NC Children’s Foundation. “By stepping forward early, The Duke Endowment has set the pace for what comes next. This is the beginning, and there is significant work ahead. We hope this grant encourages others across the Carolinas and beyond to think boldly about the role they can play in creating something that will serve children and families for generations.”

“With 18 early voting sites – the most Wake County has ever offered for a midterm General Election – voters have many options to cast their ballot during the 17-day early voting period,” said Wake County Board of Elections Director Olivia McCall. “We encourage voters to make a plan before heading to the polls and check our live online wait-time tracker to help choose the location and time that works best for them.”
Voters will be asked to show an acceptable photo ID when checking in to vote during early voting. Most voters will use their North Carolina driver license, but several other forms of photo ID are accepted. Voters who are unable to show an acceptable photo ID may still vote by completing a Photo ID Exception Form.
Eligible voters who missed the voter registration deadline may still register and vote in person during early voting. Same-day registration is available at all early voting sites. Voters using same-day registration must bring acceptable proof of their current residence and complete a voter registration form at the site. Same-day registration is not available on Election Day.

Registered voters who prefer an alternative to voting in person may request an absentee ballot. In North Carolina, voters are not required to provide a reason to vote absentee.

Completed civilian absentee ballots must be received at the Wake County Board of Elections by 7:30 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 3, to be counted, with no exceptions.
During the early voting period, completed, sealed absentee ballots may be returned at an early voting site by the voter, their near-relative or legal guardian, or someone assisting the voter due to disability. Drop boxes are not permitted by North Carolina law, and anyone delivering an absentee ballot must wait in line to transfer custody of the ballot to an election official.
