Home Care In Northborough, MA

Home Care Northborough, MA

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 Mary Goodnow Grave 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 Northborough, MA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

“I am a past client of this provider We worked with Always Best Care to provide 24-hour care for our parents who needed additional help to stay in their home. The care workers were helpful, caring, and provided the support and peace of mind needed. In addition to the care workers, office staff were regularly reachable and patient with multiple questions! Although it was a short term placement, about 3 months, I'd recommend and would use them again if the need arises.”

From my first interaction with Ron to set things up to Kingsley helping (that word doesn’t begin to describe his patience and calmness) to the most amazing caregiver I’ve ever encountered, Sarah, they handled her every need while also ensuring me it would all be okay. Another passenger on the plane even commented how amazing Sarah was with my aunt! They were truly Heaven sent, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone for any health care they provide!”

“My mom is 93 and had COVID-19, requiring hospitalization for shortness of breath and treatment with oxygen. I would have cared for my mom, but I got sick. I contacted ABCSS twelve hours before I started caring for my mom. My mom had some brain fog and some fluid balance issues. They responded that they could provide my mom with 11 hours of care a day, starting the day I was to be there. The next morning, an aide came with a supervisor to see my Mom. My goals for that day were small: to coax my mother to see the hairdresser, wash her hair, and ensure she took her medications. The aide was able to do that, to give my mom medication that was set out, to encourage her to drink and to walk in the halls. The following day, the aide encouraged her to shower and get dressed. My mom left her apartment to go to the dining room and eat with her friends. My mom might have required another hospitalization without the aide coaxing her to eat and drink reliably. Having an aide helped my mom regain some of her independence despite her brain fog and helped reinstitute the daily schedule that my mom had before her hospitalization. I had initially been contracted for 8 days, but with my mother's progress, I could terminate one-to-one care in just 6 days! I helped by setting daily goals, but the aide coaxed my mother toward health. I highly recommend this agency. I thank Georgianna for her care of my mother.”

“I am a current client of this provider Always Best Care of Greater Worcester is wonderful. The person who answers the telephone (her name is Donna), and she's older like we are. She has a clue about what we're talking about when we're asking for help and why, so it becomes a very personal conversation. I was introduced to the director. He is an RN, plus a few other things. When he comes in to do the assessment for what you need, he works really hard at putting together the right caregiver with the person asking. He was just absolutely lovely. We needed somebody who could drive to do errands, and then I needed help with the laundry and occasional meals. The caregiver picks up and tidies around. She does bathing for my husband, who is almost bedbound. She does other simple health-related things for him. For me, she helps with my bathing because I have a bad back and bad knees. She's nice, and she's sweet. She can be a little tough when she needs to be, which is what we wanted. Not to be abusive, but just someone with a firm hand. When you don't feel well, you tend to act like a 7-year-old; it doesn't matter how old you are. She is just lovely. We couldn't ask for anything better.”

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Northborough, MA?

lm-check

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.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

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.

lm-check

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.

Home Care Northborough, MA
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

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 Casta Diva Restaurant or visit Northborough Historical Society, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

Benefits of Home Care in Northborough, MA

Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - 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.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

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 Northborough, MA, 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.

 Elderly Care Northborough, MA

Affordable 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:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your MA's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.
 Senior Care Northborough, MA

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Northborough, MA 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.

Assisted Living Referral Services

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.


Respite Care Northborough, MA

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:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Northborough, MA

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:

  • Whitney Place Assisted Living and Memory Care
  • Coleman House
  • Northborough Senior Center
  • The Residence at Orchard Grove
  • Home Instead
  • Marlborough Hills Rehabilitation & Health Care Center
Home Care Northborough, MA

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.

 In-Home Care Northborough, MA

Taking the First Step with Always Best Care

The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced 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

lm-right-arrow
03

Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.

If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.

At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Northborough, MA 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.

Kristin Cabot who joined the company in 2024, is the Chief People Officer at Astronomer. In the now-viral clip, Byron can be seen quickly ducking and hiding as soon as the camera pans towards them. Cabot, on the other hand, hid her face in her hands and turned away.

After the incident, Astronomer issued a statement, saying that it is ‘committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding’. The organisation also clarified that both Byron and Cabot have not been fired and that the Board of Directors has started a formal investigation.

Andy Byron’s wife Megan Kerrigan leaves family home after scandal, staying low-profile miles away: Report

Megan Kerrigan Byron, the wife of former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, has reportedly left their $1.4 million home in Northborough, Massachusetts, and is now staying at another luxury property in Kennebunk, Maine, approximately 106 miles away. The move follows the Coldplay kiss cam scandal involving her husband and the company’s head of HR, Kristin Cabot.

According to Daily Mail, Megan has “fled” the family’s Northborough residence and is “trying to keep a low profile” in Kennebunk. Several close family members, including her older sister Maura, have reportedly rushed to support her since the video went viral. Megan and Andy Byron share two sons.

Has Megan Kerrigan Byron responded to the controversy?

As of now, Megan Kerrigan Byron has not issued an official statement regarding the scandal. However, she did remove “Byron” from her Facebook profile before ultimately deleting the account. Her previous profile featured “happy family” moments, including photos from hiking trips and graduation of one of their sons.

New Facebook profile surfaces

A new Facebook account under the name Megan Kerrigan surfaced on July 19 and quickly gained over 13,000 followers. The first post directly references the scandal and ends with the line: "I will take my children and leave this repulsive man behind."

Another post reads, “I believed him but it turns out that during those times He was with another woman. I naively thought he was working hard for our family, for our children but the kiss caught on camera at the concert shattered everything seeing Andy and Kristen Cabot cuddle together then hurriedly separating when they noticed the camera brought me a level of humiliation and pain, I cannot even describe, I cannot accept and his actions.”

A follow-up post continues, “Hello, My name is Megan Kerrigan — no longer Megan Byron. Today, I officially dropped his last name. And while it may seem like just a formality to some, to me… it was closure. I didn’t make this decision out of bitterness. I made it out of peace. I gave my heart, my loyalty, and my name to a man who couldn’t even respect me in private — let alone in public.”

There is currently no official verification that the account belongs to the real Megan Kerrigan.

NORTHBOROUGH – In just a few weeks, Northborough’s Main Street will see a new cafe open its doors.

Diamond Cafe is expected to open at 291 Main Street by the end of the month, with owner Enilton De Oliveira aiming for June 25. The space was formerly home to Britney’s Cafe, which closed in March.

The cafe will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week, and will serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, and ice cream. The breakfast menu will have popular items like pancakes, french toast, and omelets, as well as more creative twists like breakfast quesadillas. It will serve Red Barn roasted coffee.

Lunch and dinner will feature sandwiches, salads, burgers, and other entrees like steak and fish.

“I am very excited,” said De Oliveira, who is also the owner of Vina’s Pizza at 308 Main Street.

The cafe will also offer ice cream from Trombetta’s Farm in Marlborough and Brazilian acai.

The menu was curated by head chef Leonardo Bioco, who said the menu will offer a wide array of cuisine. At Diamond Cafe, Bioco wants there to be something for everyone.

“I tried to create the American breakfast style, and I tried to introduce some different things, you know, some Mexican food, some Italian, some Greek, some Brazilian,” he said. He added that the cafe will also serve different varying desserts, ranging from fresh fruit pies to decadent cakes.

Bioco said he is hoping to obtain a liquor license in the future to add a bar to the cafe. But in the meantime, he wants to offer something new for Northborough residents.

“I think people are excited,” Bioco said.

The cafe is currently hiring servers, cooks, and more.

Everything has a Rhode Island connection, even the viral moment at the Gillette Stadium Coldplay concert.

In case you somehow don't know what happened at the July 16 concert, here a quick recap: On the second night of Coldplay's Music of the Spheres world tour at Foxborough's Gillette Stadium, a camera doing a scan of the crowd came upon a pair of people embracing.

The duo instantly reacted – the woman whipped her face away from the camera and the man ducked and crawled away to avoid being seen.

"Come on, you're OK!" Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, 48, tried to tell the couple before quipping: "Uh oh. Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy."

Internet sleuths immediately seized upon the moment and the pair was identified as Andy Byron, CEO of tech company Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the company's Chief People Officer.

Andy Byron's Providence College connection

Byron, who also owns a house assessed at $1.2 million in Northborough, Massachusetts, attended college in Rhode Island.

While his LinkedIn page has since been taken down, Byron has said he was a graduate of Providence College.

Fans of the Providence College baseball team might remember Byron, who pitched for the team in the late 1990s. After graduating, he pitched for the minor league team the Clarksville Coyotes in Tennessee in 1997.

After graduating from the Catholic college, he went on to work various tech jobs, according to his LinkedIn. He became the CEO at Astronomer in July 2023.

No comment has yet been made about the Coldplay video by Byron.

After three years in business, a downtown Hopkinton pizzeria is opening a second MetroWest location.

Blue Square Pizza, known for making four styles of pizza, recently announced plans to open a second location at 309 Main St. (Route 20) in Northborough. The Northborough Select Board unanimously approved a food sellers license for Blue Square in March. Owner Troy Sproul said during that meeting that he planned to open in May.

According to the pizzeria's Instagram account, the restaurant is "coming soon."

Blue Square uses a sourdough pizza dough to make four types of pizza: Detroit-style pan pizza, Chicago cracker thin crust pizza, New York round pizza and grandma-style pizza. Other menu items include salads, house-made meatballs and chicken wings.

Sproul, who did not respond to requests for comment, opened Blue Square on 30 Main St. (Route 135) in Hopkinton in 2022. He was previously a general manager and director of training with a Papa John's franchise group in Boston from 2008 to 2012, according to the pizzeria's website. He also worked with OTTO Pizza, a Maine-based chain that has 14 locations in Massachusetts.

In Northborough, Blue Square Pizza will replace The Texas BBQ, which closed in late 2020, citing COVID-19 mandates.

According to Blue Square's application, the Northborough restaurant will offer takeout and delivery but not dine-in.
