We Serve:
David’s dedication to senior care comes from witnessing families struggle to find reliable, communicative home care providers in South Florida. After years in business, he recognized that elderly parents and their families desperately needed a care agency that answered phone calls, provided immediate access to ownership, and delivered consistent quality. When he discovered Preferred Care at Home, everything aligned: a proven company with 40 years of experience, a commitment to affordability, and values centered on dignity and independence.
Yes — we serve Miami Beach families across North Beach, Mid-Beach, South Beach, and the nearby north corridor (Surfside, Bal Harbour, Sunny Isles Beach, Aventura, Bay Harbor Islands, North Miami Beach, Miami). Our office at 20801 Biscayne Blvd, Suite 403 covers families throughout Miami-Dade. We typically serve seniors living alone in condos, recovering after a hospital stay, or living with dementia. Call (786) 284-1188 or request a free consultation.
Companion, personal, memory, respite, transition, live-in, and end-of-life home care — all non-medical. Most families start with companion and homemaker care for conversation and daily routines, then add personal care as needs change. For memory loss, dementia care adds redirection training and structured routines. Preferred Care at Home tailors the plan to what your loved one actually needs — from meal preparation and medication reminders to mobility assistance.
Our 7-Step Screening Process ensures each caregiver is truly trusted and qualified. Every caregiver passes criminal background checks, reference checks, identity verification, and a personal interview. Caregivers are then matched by personality to your loved one, not assigned by who’s next on the rotation. Local ownership means decisions stay local — David Peterson, Quin Christensen, and Richard Patterson stay personally involved in every family’s care, with the Transparency Room portal keeping adult children connected even from out of state.
Yes. Dementia care services are among our core specialties. Our caregivers receive specialized training in dementia and Alzheimer’s, including communication techniques, behavioral management, and creating safe, predictable home environments. Familiar surroundings tend to ease confusion. For Miami Beach families worried about overnight wandering or falls, live-in care adds continuous supervision day and night.
Life is never static, especially for older adults managing health conditions or cognitive decline. That’s why we build flexibility into every care plan from the start. Your dedicated team maintains regular contact and adjusts hours, services, or caregiver match as needs change. From a few hours a week of companion visits to 24-hour live-in support, we scale the in-home care plan to fit your family’s evolving situation across Miami Beach, FL.
Most families have a caregiver in place within 72 hours of the initial call — often within the same week, especially when transitioning from a hospital like Mount Sinai. The process moves from your first call to (786) 284-1188 through a phone consultation, then in-home assessment, then caregiver match, then start of care. We understand families reach out when help is needed quickly — whether after a hospital discharge, responding to a sudden change in health, or needing immediate respite.
