A Day in the Life of a Caregiver

In the simplest terms, a caregiver is a person who provides care for another. When it comes to our team, caregivers play a vital role. Our caregivers are the driving force for positively improving the lives of seniors in our community. They make a direct impact in providing care to seniors who wish to age in the safety and comfort of their home instead of an assisted living facility, an independent living facility, a senior living community, or a nursing home.

Every client will have different needs that they require assistance with, but we make sure to match our clients and caregivers for the optimal fit. Care provided could include assisting with fun hobbies and games that a client enjoys.

We are an independently owned and operated franchisee of SH Franchising, LLC dba Senior Helpers®. Senior Helpers® has been the nation's premier franchisor of in-home senior care franchisees since 2005, with locations across the country.
