Our Positive Approach to Care® Commitment

Preferred Care at Home of Cape Coral & Fort Myers is a proud Positive Approach to Care® Designated Organization—bringing Teepa Snow’s evidence-based methods to every family we serve. Compassionate, dignified care starts with real training and ends with better outcomes for your loved one.

A PAC® Designated Organization Since 2026

Preferred Care at Home of Cape Coral & Fort Myers has earned the Positive Approach to Care® (PAC) Bronze Designated Organization designation—a verified recognition that our entire team has achieved meaningful PAC training and applies these methods in daily care.

PAC, developed by dementia care expert Teepa Snow, is one of the most respected frameworks in senior care today. It reshapes how caregivers engage with clients—moving beyond task-based routines toward relationship-centered care that honors the whole person at every stage of their journey.

Our Core Philosophy

“We believe we cannot change the disease of aging, but we can change how we respond to it—protecting independence and dignity while providing better outcomes for families.”

What Our PAC® Commitment Means for Your Family

Every aspect of our care reflects the Positive Approach to Care® framework—from how caregivers are trained to how we support your family through every stage of the aging journey.

Rigorous Caregiver Training

All caregivers receive over 5 hours of specialized dementia training at hire, followed by mandatory yearly ongoing education—so every visit is backed by real expertise.

Positive Approach to Care (PAC)®

Our staff is fully trained in PAC methods, including the supportive Hand-Under-Hand technique—a gentle, person-centered approach that respects each client’s dignity.

Guiding Families from the Start

We literally and figuratively hold our clients’ hands through the entire aging process from day one—providing clear guidance, honest answers, and unwavering support.

On-Site Coaches & Educators

Our specialized experts identify individual family needs and custom-cater our responses to alleviate stressors—often before the family even notices them.

Proactive Reporting

Staff members are trained to notice and quickly report early challenges, allowing us to adjust care before minor issues become major stressors for your family.

Protecting Dignity & Independence

Every care plan honors who your loved one is—what they love, how they want to live, and the independence that makes life meaningful at every stage of aging.
