Friends of the Family Home Health Care is a home health care company which offers a variety of services to allow your loved one to remain at home in the most comfortable environment. We offer in-home, in-facility, medical and/or non-medical care. Hourly to 24-hour care is available as well as check-in/monitoring, post-operative care, transportation, light housekeeping, meal preparation and companionship. Our services begin with a FREE in-home or in-facility assessment of your loved one to determine a care plan. After a care plan has been determined, our staff of licensed health care professionals will begin providing care for your loved one. Each of our staff members is highly trained and carefully selected. They must pass numerous tests including BCII and FBI background checks, reference checks and drug screenings before they join Friends of the Family. We typically hire people we already know, “friends” of our family. Friends of the Family is locally-owned and operated; the company is licensed, bonded and insured to provide worry-free care. What sets Friends of the Family apart from other home health care companies is its dedication to go above and beyond in every aspect of care. We treat each and every patient like royalty. We provide a 100% shift coverage guarantee and we answer our own phones 24/7—no answering services or machines. We are a “serving people” organization. The “home health care” part is just an added bonus
