Companion Care
Too often, with age comes loneliness. The feeling that no one cares creeps in. Aging has a way of reminding you of family members and friends who have passed on. You can feel like you're alone.
Homemaker Care

Personal Care
As we mature, our needs change. The things that were once simple to perform become complicated.We can provide you or your loved one assistance and direction with all the tasks referred to as activities of daily living.
Dementia/Alzheimer’s Care
If you or your parent has Alzheimer's disease, you're not alone. After all, every 70 seconds someone is diagnosed with it. Yet it can feel so isolating, so overwhelming.
Live-in Care
Peace of mind. It's so often an elusive dream for people with elderly parents and for elderly people themselves. That's why Preferred Care at Home has always been known best for our 24-hour peace-of-mind service called live-in care.

At Preferred Care at Home, we partner with hospices to care for people as they approach life's final transition. Our caregivers are specially trained in end-of-life care.

Caregiver Qualifications
Every Preferred Care at Home caregiver possesses two key characteristics: a compassionate heart and home-care experience. The first and most significant characteristic is the compassionate heart. No training can create this uncompromising, required quality.
Caregiver-Screening Process
To ensure you receive the highest-quality home care possible, we put all caregiver applicants through a rigorous, seven-step screening process after we receive their comprehensive caregiver application. You can learn more about this process in the video and article below.
Become a Caregiver
Caring for people in need can be rewarding work. At Preferred Care at Home, we're always looking for people with the appropriate experience. But most importantly, we seek home-care aides who are compassionate and reliable.
Our Caregivers
When you choose a home-care service, one consideration stands above all else: the quality of the caregivers who will be at your or your loved one's side. You want people you can trust without question.

Mission Statement
For many older people, home is everything. It’s a window to the past, a safehaven for the present and the legacy they long to leave for the next generation.
Preferred Care at Home’s History
“Quality services at affordable prices” is and will always be at the center of every Preferred Care at Home location. It’s no coincidence that Preferred Care at Home has expanded over four times faster than the average franchise company and that the Preferred family now stretches as far northwest as Alaska, northeast as New York and south Florida.
Philanthropy
At Preferred Care at Home, we’re passionate about not only helping elderly people but also advocating for them. We recognize the wealth of knowledge and experience they possess. We believe that to be a strong community, we can’t ignore their stories and knowledge. And we’re concerned that elderly people have lost value in our culture. We want to be part of changing that.
