We are honored that God has blessed us with the opportunity to positively impact and change people’s lives. It is our mission to ensure that we provide the very best of care to our clients.
We offer an exceptional combination of home care and community-based social services. Our goal is to help your loved ones to continue to live safely and confidently in a familiar place they call home. Better Care provides care through caregivers who are trained and/or certified. We offer long-term, short-term, and live-in care.
As our loved ones grow older, we notice changes. They seem withdrawn, less steady on their feet, and overwhelmed by tasks that once came easily. We make efforts to visit more often, but it doesn’t feel like enough. Being far away means worrying if they’ve eaten, taken their medication, or have someone to talk to. What we wouldn’t give to find them more support and companionship.
For many families, companion care is that solution. At Better Care Home Health Services, we provide seniors with dedicated companions who become trusted friends. Far beyond just helping around the house, our caregivers offer joyful companionship and assistance to improve quality of life.
Companion care involves so much more than basic aid with daily activities. It provides seniors with meaningful social connections and emotional support. For older adults who are isolated or lonely, this can dramatically improve both mental and physical health.
Our companions engage in fun social activities that spark nostalgia and conversation. They might reminisce over family photos, relive the golden oldies, or exchange cooking tips while preparing supper together. Starting a puzzle or playing lively rounds of Scrabble helps keep the mind sharp. Outings to the senior center, the farmers’ market, or the botanical gardens get them back into the community.
Through everyday interactions, our caregivers become attentive friends who truly understand and care about each senior. They lend emotional support during grief over losing a spouse or friend. They provide motivation to stay active and positive. They know just how your loved one likes their coffee and when they need an extra blanket at night.
At Better Care, companions empower seniors to pursue new hobbies, engage with family, and enjoy every moment, whether ordinary or extraordinary. Their reassuring presence enhances security and freedom to participate in activities.
Having aging parents far away can stir up immense worry and guilt. You likely feel torn between respecting their independence and needing to care for them from afar. Our compassionate companions ease that stress.
At Better Care Home Health Services, we conduct extensive screenings and background checks on all caregivers before hiring them. We look for individuals who are responsible, patient, caring, and devoted to this work. Ongoing training ensures our companions provide attentive, professional care.
You can trust our team to keep your loved one safe and offer any assistance needed. Our caregivers act as your hands, heart, and help when you can’t be present. They alert family immediately with any concerns and provide regular check-ins.
Knowing your parent has a caring companion eases worries. It means they have someone to talk to, share meals with, and keep them engaged. With our assistance, they gain the flexibility to participate in activities they enjoy. Our goal is for your loved one to feel secure and uplifted in our care.

Armed with this knowledge, we handpick a companion who compliments them. For example, a companion who also loves tending to their flower garden or who shares their sarcasm and wit.

At Better Care Home Health Services, we understand seniors have very diverse preferences and abilities. We work closely with each client to customize a companion care plan suited to them.
For more independent seniors, a companion provides primarily social engagement and emotional support. They might share coffee and conversation in the mornings before the client heads out to run errands or visit friends. In the evenings, they cook and dine together and enjoy sedentary activities like reading or watching a favorite show.
For clients who require more assistance, companions are there throughout the day to help with personal care, household tasks, mobility around the home, transportation, and monitoring health needs. Care is tailored to match the senior’s current abilities and adjusts accordingly over time.
No matter their individual capabilities, our goal is to nurture our clients’ autonomy and freedom of choice. Companions offer options while assisting and consulting the senior as much as possible. They work hard to accommodate each client’s wishes to make them feel empowered and respected.
Our elders have a lifetime of wisdom and experiences – they have stories to share and unique personalities. At Better Care, companions uplift these qualities in every senior they care for. We train our team to honor each client’s dignity and individuality.
