Local care

Care that knows Amherst.

Solura Home Care provides non-medical in-home care and rides to appointments in Amherst, Ohio, with the same caregiver at every visit.

Amherst is a small city with a strong sense of place, known for the sandstone quarried here and the historic homes along Cleveland and Park avenues. Most residents own their homes, and nearly a quarter are 65 or older.

In a town this size, people want help from someone who feels like a neighbor. We send one consistent caregiver who learns the house, the routine, and the family, and who can drive to appointments in Elyria or Lorain when they come up.

Local questions

What Amherst families ask.

Can you help someone who lives in an older home near downtown?
Yes. Caregivers help with stairs, bathing, and getting around safely, which matters in older homes. We can also suggest simple ways to make the most-used rooms easier.
Will you drive to appointments in Elyria or Lorain?
Yes. We drive and stay with your family member through the visit, whether it is in Amherst or at a hospital in Elyria or Lorain.
Is there a minimum number of hours?
Care starts at 5 hours a week, so a few visits for meals, bathing, or errands is a perfectly good place to begin, and the plan can grow from there.
