Care services include assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation, light housekeeping, companionship, and medication reminders. The agency also offers memory support and safety supervision for seniors with cognitive needs. All caregivers undergo thorough background checks (CORI compliant) and receive ongoing training.

AbbottCare emphasizes personalized care planning, building each plan around the individual's routines, preferences, and goals.

The Abbott team from nurse assessment, care manager, care placement director to nurse and care aides are phenomenal! Personal, caring, family first focus and above all empathetic to person being cared for the care giver. The highest of ratings for this highly available and responsive team.

We are incredibly grateful for the Abbott Home Health Care team that takes care of my disabled brother. Their service is truly top notch—professional, compassionate, and reliable. The care they provide has been life changing for our family, giving us peace of mind and greatly improving my brother’s quality of life. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of exceptional home care.

I highly recommend Abbott Home Health Care. My mother was placed in hospice after her last discharge from the hospital. Abbott Home Health Care was an exceptional provider of home care for her final weeks. Addressed our needs of immediate coverage and were accommodating when we needed to expand the # of day coverage. Please feel comfortable employing this service for your loved one. They will be in good hands.

Abbott has been a terrible experience for our family. They hire and send aides who do not speak English. Holidays? They do not have coverage and leave their bed-bound customers lying in their feces for 12 hours. Unprofessional. Do not communicate with customers and family members. Do not pay their aides the proper salary based on the needs of the customer but still bill Old Colony at a higher rate for the special needs of the customer. This has been a nightmare. Find another agency and also vet them carefully before letting them care for your loved ones.
