Compassionate Home Care is a faith-based agency dedicated to providing comprehensive home health and elder care services for individuals with a wide range of needs. Their approach centers on delivering support that is not only thorough and methodically detailed, but also individualized, ensuring that each client receives a care plan tailored specifically to their health, wellness, and personal situation. With over 60 years of combined experience among their team, Compassionate Home Care is founded on a deep-seated mission: to enhance the quality of life for those they serve, supporting clients in remaining safely and comfortably in their own homes and communities.
A hallmark of Compassionate Home Care is their commitment to personalized, quality care that encompasses not just physical assistance, but socialization, emotional well-being, and everyday support. The team provides non-medical care, supervision, and companionship to adults, including assistance with daily living tasks and community integration, all while respecting the dignity and independence of each individual. Their bundled services include multiple components, such as Individual Community Living Support and Individualized Home Supports, with or without training, and options for family training. These services are adapted to each person’s unique needs and goals, helping them maintain independence and achieve the highest possible quality of life.
Faith and compassion are woven throughout the culture at Compassionate Home Care. The agency’s team members are chosen not only for their expertise and professionalism, but also for their servant’s heart and genuine desire to make a positive impact in the lives of others. Each caregiver undergoes ongoing training, equipping them with current knowledge and essential skills to provide specialized care, whether that involves dementia care, Alzheimer’s care, or general companionship. Registered nurses play an integral role, bringing their clinical knowledge and emotional support into client homes, handling responsibilities like medication management and specialized care planning.
Serving veterans, service members, and their families is an integral part of the agency’s mission. Compassionate Home Care honors those who have served and actively works to provide them and their loved ones with the highest level of support. The agency understands that older adults may feel reluctant to accept or spend money on care services, but they emphasize that putting such services in place is essential to preserving independence, safety, and overall enjoyment of life. To support families, they assist in exploring various payment options such as Medicaid waivers, veterans’ assistance, long-term care insurance, and private pay, making personalized in-home care more accessible.
Compassionate Home Care values their employees as the key to delivering excellent service. The work environment is shaped by mutual respect, ongoing professional development, and a strong sense of mission, fostering a team of caregivers and staff members who are both skilled and deeply committed to their clients. Employees are supported with competitive benefits and a positive workplace culture, with the understanding that a happy and motivated workforce translates into the best possible care for clients. The office team, led by professionals including Amy Cornelius and Jan Nicodemus, exemplifies dedication, faith, and passion in each aspect of their work.
Each client’s journey with Compassionate Home Care starts with a thorough assessment designed to determine the most appropriate mix of services, ensuring a personalized and effective care plan. From providing reminders, cues, and intermittent supervision, to assisting with errands, finances, and social activities, the caregivers strive to create a nurturing and empowering environment. The agency believes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to caregiving, and has developed a team of compassionate and skilled individuals who bring experience, empathy, and dedication into every home they serve.
At Compassionate Home Care, faith, compassion, and a relentless pursuit of excellence form the foundation of truly personalized home care, allowing clients to thrive in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes for as long as possible.
