Questions, answered honestly

Home care (what we provide) is non-medical: help with daily living like bathing, meals, companionship, and housekeeping. Home health care is medical care — nursing, wound care, therapy — ordered by a doctor. Many families use both together, and we happily coordinate with home health teams.

Often within 24–48 hours of your free assessment, and sooner in urgent situations. Call us and we'll tell you honestly what's possible for your schedule.

Cost depends on how many hours you need and the level of care. At your free in-home assessment we'll give you a clear, written quote — no obligation and no surprise fees. See our Paying for Care page for ways families cover the cost.

Tell us — we'll re-match you at no charge. The right fit matters as much as the right skills.

Traditional Medicare generally does not cover non-medical home care. But long-term-care insurance, VA benefits, Michigan Medicaid waiver programs, and private pay are all common options — we'll walk you through them honestly at your assessment.
