This is the way our loved ones should be taken care of! From the first contact and the manager coming out to interview us as candidates as we interviewed her, a match. My parents received the best care and quality of life improvements that are unbelievable for us. This company serves the industry as the example of what care should be! Thanks Jenn & Shirley & Care Team.

My experience with Assistance Home care has been nothing but positive. Starting with how thoughtful they were about who they sent to care for my elderly parents. Down the road they went above and beyond to help me solve issues that arose with dementia and memory loss. I am grateful for their help and I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking care for a family member.
