Loneliness affects the overall quality of life for many older adults. Our experienced caregivers provide meaningful companionship through conversation, engaging activities, errands, and transportation to appointments or social events. We help seniors stay connected to their community, maintain friendships, and keep daily routines steady, all while enjoying the comfort of their own homes.
Keeping up with household tasks becomes challenging with limited mobility or cognitive decline. Our homemaker services include meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, and home organization. These essential care services help create a safe, comfortable environment where seniors can continue to live independently with peace of mind.
When assistance with personal tasks becomes necessary, dignity comes first. Our professional caregiver team provides respectful support with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility assistance. We understand these are intimate moments, and we approach every interaction with privacy, compassion, and the highest level of professionalism.
Caring for someone with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease requires specialized expertise and patience.

For seniors who need continuous support, our live-in and 24-hour care services provide peace of mind day and night. Whether managing complex health needs or simply ensuring safety at home, our dedicated caregivers are there whenever needed, allowing your mom or dad to remain in their own home with the comprehensive support they need.
Experience the Difference of Truly Personalized Care
Most families tell us they chose Prefer Home because of how we match caregivers to their loved ones. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all senior home care services. Our 7-step screening process includes thorough background checks, skills assessments, and reference verification to ensure every caregiver meets our standards for quality, compassion, and expertise.
We carefully match caregivers based on your loved one’s personality, specific needs, daily routines, and preferences. As needs evolve, we adjust the care plan and provide ongoing supervision to maintain the highest level of service. Our family-first approach means we’re always just a phone call away.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any free or low-cost services that can help supplement home care?
Yes, many residents don’t realize how many community programs are available in the Boynton Beach FL area. These can include transportation assistance for seniors, meal delivery services like Meals on Wheels, home safety checks, and respite support for family members. These benefits can significantly reduce the overall cost of keeping loved ones safe at home. For step-by-step guidance on locating local, state, and nonprofit resources that can supplement your home care service, visit our guide on how to find free services.
Do you have a curated list of trusted senior resources we can explore?
Absolutely. We understand that navigating senior care can feel overwhelming, which is why we’ve created a comprehensive directory to help families. Our senior resource links page features reputable organizations, benefits programs, and community services related to care, safety, transportation, and financial support. It’s designed to be a one-stop hub for families in the Palm Beach County area seeking reliable information and assistance beyond our home care services.
What are the ways to pay for home care?
Most families use a combination of payment methods to manage the cost of senior home care. Common options include private pay, long-term care insurance, VA benefits for eligible veterans, and state or local programs that support older adults aging in place. Some clients also use life insurance policies with living benefits. The good news is that home care is often more affordable than nursing homes or assisted living facilities. Our team helps families navigate these options and maximize available benefits. For detailed guidance on payment methods, eligibility requirements, and how we help families manage costs, visit our resource on ways to pay for home care.
What makes your caregivers different from other agencies?
Our professional caregivers undergo extensive background checks and training before ever stepping into a client’s home. We don’t just match based on availability; we consider personality, interests, and life experience to find caregivers who connect with your loved one. Many of our caregiver relationships last for years because we prioritize compatibility and continuity. We also provide ongoing supervision and support, so you’re never just working with a caregiver—you’re working with an entire team dedicated to your loved one’s wellbeing.
How quickly can you start care services?
We understand that needs often arise suddenly, especially after a hospital discharge or health crisis. In many cases, we can have a caregiver in your home within 24 to 48 hours of your initial contact. Our team works efficiently to complete the consultation, develop a personalized care plan, and match you with the right professional caregiver quickly, without compromising on quality or safety.
Can I choose my own caregiver?
Yes. While we provide thoughtful recommendations based on your loved one’s specific needs and personality, the final decision is always yours. We encourage you to meet potential caregivers before services begin, and if the match doesn’t feel right for any reason, we’ll find someone else. Your comfort and confidence in the caregiver are essential to successful senior care.
What if my loved one's needs change over time?
Life and health are unpredictable, and we plan for that. Your care plan isn’t set in stone. As your loved one experiences changes in physical health, cognitive function, or daily living abilities, we adjust services accordingly. Whether that means increasing hours, adding specialized dementia care, or incorporating new personal care tasks, we work closely with families to ensure the plan evolves with their needs. There’s never a penalty for adjusting services, and we’re always available to discuss changes.
