In-home care in Middletown, Delaware
Home care in Middletown, Delaware for families south of the canal. Personal care,
companionship, transport to appointments and respite.
South of the canal, and further from everything
A lot of people moved to Middletown for the space, the quiet and the newer houses. It is a good place to retire to, right
up until the day driving stops being easy.
From there, the distances that made Middletown attractive start working the other way. The specialists are up in
Newark or Wilmington. The grown children are often further still. And an area that grew as fast as this one did has
more retired residents than it has services for them.
Help that fits around the family, not the other way round
Most of the families who call us here are not looking for full-time care. They are looking for someone to cover the
middle of the day, or the two mornings a week when a daughter cannot get down from Wilmington, or the fortnight
after an operation.
We can start at a few hours and stay there for as long as that is all that is needed. If more is needed later, that is a conversation then, not a commitment now.
What we do
Personal care, including help with bathing, dressing and moving safely around the house. Companionship, including
simply being in the house so that somebody is not alone all day. Meals, light housekeeping and laundry. Medication
reminders. Driving to appointments, including the ones up in Newark, and waiting to bring them home again. Respite
so that the family carer can have a day that belongs to them.
Straight answers about money
No contract, no deposit
You will see the price in writing before anyone begins, and it does not change without you agreeing to it. There is no
contract, no deposit and no minimum number of hours that you have to buy.
The first conversation is free, and it is a conversation, not a sales visit. Plenty of the families we meet decide they do
not need us yet, and that is a perfectly good outcome.
