What we suggest for your loved one
Get ahead of it
This is the best time to start. A caregiver a few hours a week can help with meals, laundry, light housekeeping, errands, rides and companionship. 24/7 Virtual Care adds support between visits. Starting early lets your loved one build trust with a caregiver before a crisis.
Regular help
Consider hourly care several days a week for bathing, dressing, grooming, meals and medication reminders, with 24/7 Virtual Care in between.
Don't wait
Consider longer daily visits, overnight care, 24/7 care, or a caregiver who lives in the home. Help getting around safely can lower the chance of another fall.
Ask about dementia care
Memory changes have many causes, so share what you see with your loved one's doctor. Our Alzheimer's and dementia care gives your loved one steady routines and familiar faces.
Coming home from the hospital? Short-term help after a hospital stay can make the first weeks home safer and easier.
If you checked a few of these
A few checks are a good reason to talk with someone. We offer a free assessment in your loved one's home to talk through what would help now and what may help later. A real person answers our phone day and night.

Our Mission
We exist to deliver exceptional home care services with superior customer service, while ensuring our staff is valued and treated with respect.
What home care in Mercer County looks like
Families across Mercer County often call us after a hospital or rehab stay, or when they notice a parent needs more help than they did a few months ago. Our job is simple: make home the easiest, safest and most comfortable place for your loved one to be.
A caregiver from our Princeton office can help with the whole day: a shower and getting dressed, a warm breakfast, medication reminders, a steady arm on the stairs, and errands or a drive to the doctor. They also notice what a family can miss from a distance, like a skipped meal or a new unsteadiness, and they bring good company and conversation.
Our care is non-medical, so there's no doctor's order to wait for. You set the schedule, from a few hours a week to a caregiver who lives in the home. To see how this differs from nursing visits, read our guide to home health care vs home care. When you're ready, start with a free in-home assessment at your loved one's home.

What's the difference between home care and home health care?
Home care, also called non medical home care, helps your loved one with everyday activities so they can stay safe and comfortable at home. A trained caregiver or home health aide assists with personal care like bathing, dressing, and toileting, along with daily tasks such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship.
Home health care is skilled medical care provided by a registered nurse (RN) or licensed practical nurse (LPN). It covers clinical tasks that require a nurse's oversight, such as IV therapy, wound care, and medication administration. Home health care is usually ordered by a doctor for a set period of time, often after a hospital stay.
Many families use both, with home care filling in the daily support between skilled nursing visits.
How quickly can care start?
In urgent situations, we can often start care the same day. For most families, care begins within one to two days. That gives us time to complete your free in home assessment, create a custom care plan for your loved one, and carefully match them with the right caregiver. We move quickly without cutting corners, because your loved one's safety and comfort always come first.
What happens during the free in home assessment?
During the free in home assessment, we take the time to get to know your loved one and your family, including their daily routines, preferences, and what matters most to them. We also complete a home safety assessment and share any recommendations to help prevent falls and make the home safer, at no charge. From there, we create a custom care plan and help you decide on the home care options and schedule that best fit your loved one's needs.
Will my loved one have the same caregiver each time?
We always do our best to keep the same caregiver with your loved one, and we note your preferences so every visit feels familiar and comfortable. Thanks to our low caregiver turnover and excellent training, most of our clients see the same friendly faces week after week. Of course, caregivers need time off and get sick sometimes too. When that happens, we let you know right away and send a wonderful, fully trained replacement who is already familiar with your loved one's care plan. That's the benefit of working with an agency. You're never left without help.
How much does home care cost?
The cost of in home care depends on several things, including where your loved one lives, how many hours of care they need, how often visits are scheduled, and the type of care required. Because every family's situation is different, the best way to get an accurate price is through our free in home assessment. There's no obligation, and we'll create a care plan that fits your loved one's needs. You'll always have a clear, written estimate before care begins, with no surprises.
How do I reach someone after hours or on weekends?
We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Just call our main office number and ask to speak with someone. A real person from our team will help you right away, whether it's a schedule change, a question, or an unexpected situation. We're always here for you.
