How it works
The small things that keep a home running.
When cooking and chores get harder, they are often the first things to slip, and they matter more than they seem. A good meal and a tidy kitchen help with energy, mood and safety.
This is light housekeeping, not deep cleaning. Your caregiver keeps up with the everyday tasks, often in the same visit as personal care or companionship.
Care starts at 5 hours a week. Most families pay $32 to $36 an hour. Paying for care
Often helps
When families ask for it.
Questions
What families ask about meals and housekeeping.
Do you do deep cleaning?
No. Caregivers handle light housekeeping during visits: dishes, laundry, tidying and keeping paths clear. For deep cleaning, a cleaning service is the better fit.
Can the caregiver follow a special diet?
Yes. Share the diet the doctor recommended and your loved one's favorites, and we build meals around both.
Can meals and housekeeping be the only help we need?
Yes. Some families start with a few hours a week of meals and chores, and add more help later if needed.
Also at home
Most plans combine a few of these.
Conversation, shared meals, activities and outings, from a familiar face who keeps coming back.
Escorted rides to appointments, from the front door to the waiting room and home again.
