Services
Care doesn’t always fit neatly into one category. Our services can be used individually or combined to create practical support that works for everyday life.
Six kinds of support
Practical, day-to-day help. Use one service on its own, or put a few together and change the mix as life changes.
Help with personal routines, mobility, meals, hygiene and everyday activities.
Getting ready for the day, moving safely around the house, a hand at mealtimes: respectful help with the parts of the day that have become harder, done the way the person prefers. That includes bathing, dressing, hygiene, mobility and transfers, companionship, meal preparation, help with eating, medication reminders and light housekeeping related to personal care.
Caregivers give medication reminders. They do not administer or dispense medication. We make every effort to provide consistent caregivers, although scheduling and availability can sometimes require adjustments.
Flexible support that gives family caregivers time to work, rest, run errands or simply recharge.
A few hours a week, a standing afternoon or occasional coverage, so the person you care for is in good company while you step away. Family caregiver respite in St. Louis and St. Charles that fits your calendar.
Conversation, outings, activities and meaningful support that helps people stay engaged.
A walk, a card game, a trip to the library, a familiar face at the same time each week. Often the first kind of in-home care St. Louis families try, and it changes more than you would expect.
Light housekeeping, laundry, meals, errands, organization and support keeping the household running.
Homemaker services for St. Louis and St. Charles households where the everyday tasks have started to pile up. Dishes done, real food in the fridge and the mail sorted.
Help developing and maintaining routines, organization, household skills and community participation.
Independent living support in St. Louis for adults with disabilities and young adults building confidence: practicing a routine, planning a week of meals, getting comfortable in the community, with someone alongside as much as needed.
Flexible assistance that works alongside parents and family routines.
Support for a child with extra needs, an extra set of hands during the busiest hours or coverage that lets parents keep their own commitments. We follow the family’s lead.
Everyday support
One household needs someone to handle errands and the grocery run. Another wants company on community outings, a standing homemaking visit or meal support so dinner is not the hardest part of the day. Some people need a ride to the doctor or the pharmacy, with someone alongside them. Others need a lot of help at first and much less later.
None of this has to be decided up front. We start with what would make life easier this month and adjust from there.
Scheduling and pricing
Some families need help for a day. Others need someone every day for months. Care can be set up the way your household actually needs it, and changed when that changes.
Standard visits have a four-hour minimum. Schedule changes and cancellations are covered in your service agreement, so you know the terms up front.
Our standard personal care rate is $34 an hour with a four-hour minimum, so the starting price is a four-hour visit. Overnight care, extended shifts and live-in care are priced based on the level of support needed, and we go through it with you plainly before anything starts.
One designated family member or responsible party can receive and pay the invoices. Care is generally billed weekly, with payment in advance. Short-term or last-minute arrangements may have different payment terms.
Getting started begins with a Complimentary In-Home Care Consultation & Up to 2 Hours of Care Observation. No cost. No obligation.
Support for the family, too
Most of the people who call us are adult children or spouses, often after a fall, a hospital stay, surgery or a change in mobility. Some need help right away, and some are planning ongoing care. Either way, the process stays simple, and the support around the caregiving is part of the care, not an add-on.
Help keeping the pieces in order, like coordinating appointments, so one family member is not holding the whole schedule alone.
When you live out of town, a local team that knows your loved one and keeps you in the loop on how things are going.
Practical, day-to-day help when someone is moving into assisted living, so the move feels less overwhelming for everyone.
Clear, dependable updates for the people who need them, so everyone is working from the same picture.
The small, specific things that make a real difference in your household, built into the care plan.
