When the changes show up at home in South Point, you notice them before anyone else. A parent slows down, the kitchen routine breaks, a hospital stay turns daily life upside down. Preferred Care at Home offers non-medical South Point in-home care that keeps your loved one in their own home, with companion, personal, and homemaker support across South Point and the surrounding Fayette County families who need real peace of mind.
Preferred Care at Home is locally owned and operated by Chad Farmer, part of a national network of home care providers founded in 1984, and licensed in Kentucky under PSA500533. Our service reach extends across Fayette County and Central Kentucky, and our team stays focused on non-medical home care delivered at the highest level.
We match caregivers by personality rather than by availability, every caregiver clears our 7-step screening with background checks, and owner Chad Farmer stays directly involved instead of routing your call through a corporate center. The Transparency Room online portal lets families see and manage care details as the plan unfolds.
Quality in-home care begins with the right caregiver match. Our comprehensive approach includes rigorous background checks and a thorough vetting process to ensure every caregiver on our team meets our high standards for compassion, reliability, and skill.
We take time to understand your loved one’s personality, preferences, and unique needs before thoughtfully matching them with a caregiver who shares compatible interests and values. Our consistent team approach means you’ll work with dedicated care professionals who provide ongoing education, regular supervision, and care plan adjustments as needs change.
The first weeks after a hospital stay are the hardest, and South Point families discharged from UK Albert B. Chandler, Baptist Health Lexington, or Saint Joseph East often face the gap between hospital and home alone. Our Transition Care helps with discharge instructions, meal prep, medication reminders, mobility support, and ride coordination during the first 30 days at home.
When your loved one is safe enough to stay home but the days have gotten quiet, our Companion Care fills the hours—conversation, errands, and appointments. Caregivers are matched to your loved one’s personality, not the week’s open schedule, and the same caregiver comes back each visit.
Meals, laundry, light housekeeping, and grocery runs are the steady backbone of staying in your own house. Our Homemaker Care builds a weekly plan around your loved one’s routine, with meal prep that follows the diet their doctor asked for, on a daily or weekly schedule.
When bathing, dressing, and getting safely in and out of a chair become the daily friction point, our Personal Care brings hands-on help delivered with dignity, paired with fall-risk awareness across the home. The same caregiver supports bathing, mobility, and continence needs while keeping safety the quiet priority of every visit.
Repeated questions, missed turns on familiar roads, and the stove left on are signals the household needs structure. Our Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care brings a consistent caregiver, a predictable routine, and environment-based redirection that supports safety without clinical intervention—keeping your loved one oriented, calm, and at home.
When overnight safety becomes the question, hourly visits stop being enough. Our Live-In Care keeps one caregiver in the home around the clock, supporting your loved one’s routine across the full day and night—for many South Point families, a more affordable answer than a facility.

Asking for help is not easy. We understand. That’s exactly why Ethan Guerrieri founded Preferred Care at Home of Lexington: because every elderly person deserves to age with dignity, comfort, and genuine compassion in the home they love.
Ethan grew up in a family where caring for others wasn’t just a profession. It was a way of life. That upbringing shaped who he is, and it led him to build a career dedicated to home care. Over the past decade, Ethan has served as a Director of Long Term Care, led day-to-day operations, and guided new franchise owners through the process of building their own care teams. He’s sat with families navigating difficult decisions. He’s worked alongside caregivers on the front lines. And through it all, he’s learned that great care comes down to one thing: treating every person the way you’d want your own family treated.
That experience is what he brings to Lexington. Together with his team, Ethan helps Central Kentucky families find peace of mind when caring for an elderly loved one feels overwhelming. Because home is where memories have been made, and are still being created. And he’ll be there for you, by your side, every step of the way.

Home care is non-medical daily-living support; home health is clinical care ordered by a doctor for a medical need. Non-medical senior care covers meals, bathing, mobility, errands, and companionship, while home health means a nurse or therapist visiting for a covered medical service for a limited time.
For most elderly parents who need help with daily living rather than constant medical care, in-home care lets them stay home with support and usually costs less. Nursing homes may be right when medical needs become constant, and we’re happy to talk through where your mother actually sits on that line.
Non-medical in-home care is typically private pay; Medicare covers skilled home health under specific conditions, not non-medical companion or homemaker care. Cost is charged by the hour and varies with hours and level of support. Medicaid waivers and long-term care insurance may apply—call (859) 800-6237 and we’ll help you sort what’s covered.
