Preferred Care at Home of The Villages is a home care agency serving Lady Lake, Florida and surrounding areas, offering non-medical home care services ranging from 1 to 24 hours per day. The agency provides transition care, companion and homemaker services, and 24-hour live-in care designed to help seniors remain in their own homes with professional support.
The agency's Smooth-Transition Care program specifically addresses the period after hospital or nursing home discharge, when elderly individuals often struggle with medication management, follow-up appointments, and recovery. Clients receive a dedicated coach who meets them at the facility, guides them through the transition process, provides regular phone calls or in-home visits, and ensures safety and medication compliance at home. Clients also receive a 15-piece toolkit with medical information and access to a secure online health record to share with healthcare providers and family members.
Companion and Homemaker Care services include meal monitoring, transportation to appointments and activities, assistance with minor household tasks, and participation in community activities. Homemaker care addresses daily chores such as cleaning, shopping, and laundry to allow seniors to remain comfortable in their homes. The agency emphasizes that these services work well for seniors living alone or without nearby family, as well as for respite care situations.
The 24-hour live-in care option provides around-the-clock supervision and companionship in the client's home or care facility. Caregivers are matched by personality, life experience, and work background, with an emphasis on consistency, so clients work with the same caregiver over time. This service is described as beneficial for seniors with fall risks, medication management concerns, mobility limitations, memory deficiencies, and those with Alzheimer's disease who benefit from a familiar environment.
Since 1984, Preferred Care at Home has focused on providing quality services at affordable prices while respecting client dignity and independence. The agency serves clients in Dunnellon, Hernando, Inverness, Lecanto, Beverly Hills, The Villages, Lake Panasoffkee, Oxford, and Wildwood. Pet ownership is not addressed in the available information.
