Preferred Care at Home of Deerfield and Pompano is a home care agency serving Fort Lauderdale, Florida, offering in-home personal care assistance, companion and homemaker services, dementia and Alzheimer's care, and transitional care for seniors recovering from hospital or nursing home discharge.
The agency provides personal home care assistance with activities of daily living including hygiene care, bathing, grooming, mobility support, and toileting. Homemaker services help seniors maintain their homes by handling chores, meal preparation, laundry, and light housekeeping. Companion care addresses loneliness by providing social interaction, transportation to community activities, and assistance with errands and appointments. Services are available from as little as one hour to 24 hours daily, depending on client needs.
Preferred Care at Home operates a Smooth-Transition Care program designed to help patients move safely from hospitals or nursing homes to home recovery. This program includes a dedicated care coach who meets clients at discharge, helps schedule follow-up appointments, manages medication reminders, and provides ongoing support through phone calls and in-person visits. Clients receive a 15-piece transition tool kit containing medication information, appointment dates, and a symptoms chart to guide when to seek immediate care versus waiting to see a doctor.
The agency's dementia and Alzheimer's care services are provided by specially trained caregivers who focus on safety and health monitoring while allowing clients to remain in their homes. The company, founded by a husband-and-wife team with over 35 years in home care, emphasizes maintaining client independence and dignity throughout the caregiving process.
