Elder care has become a top issue in our society today as it replaces child care as the number one concern for the men and women in today’s work force. Already people are spending more time caring for their elderly parents than they did caring for their own children.

The fact that in-home assistance is an unregulated industry should raise many concerns for those seeking help. Anyone can be a “caregiver”, any company or agency can provide a “caregiver”, but do you really want people in your homes with vulnerable loved ones that are uninsured with unknown backgrounds?

Only the best Caregivers are employed by Intouch Home Care. Their backgrounds are scrutinized from a legal, driving and health perspective. A key part of our job is match making…every person we serve is unique and so are our Caregivers so we strive to find the right combinations of personalities, needs and skills,

Once again, research shows that older people who remain at home live longer and happier lives than do people of similar circumstances who are forced to leave their homes to live in other environments, by providing a safe, secure and comfortable environment in their own home, everyone in the family benefits.

I understand how attached to our homes and environment we all become. We live in a truly unique and beautiful place that no one wants to leave, so we’re just helping people enjoy life on their terms, in their homes.
