Why Would Someone Need In-Home Care?
There are many reasons why your loved one may need the help of an in-home caregiver. Perhaps your family member has undergone surgery or treatment for a disease and needs a helping hand until they regain their strength and mobility. Maybe your aging mother wants to keep the freedom of living in her own home, but often gets lonely and could use some company.

We’ll then develop a customized plan for your loved one’s care, allowing your input on what you feel is best for them.

What if My Family Member Only Needs Part-Time Care?
We offer flexible schedules to meet the exact needs of every patient. Whether your loved one needs help tidying the house once a week or wants a companion for activities multiple times a week, we’re able to provide the level of care you desire. Our flexible at-home care in Memphis, TN is available for as many hours or as many days as you require.
Can You Also Provide Specialty Care?
This depends on the level of care your loved one needs. If for some reason, they fall ill or need more help with household chores, we can offer more regular care as well as additional support around the home. However, if your family member requires care that is more medical in nature, we are unable to provide this. We would instead suggest that you look into a skilled nursing provider. We are still able to offer non-medical home care in combination with separate skilled nursing services.
What Types of In-Home Services Do You Provide?
We provide all types of non-medical home care for our clients. Whether your loved one needs someone to lend a helping hand with cleaning tasks, needs a ride to appointments, or needs a friend to spend time with them, our caregivers are here to help. Our in-home care services in Memphis, TN include the following:
Household Chores
We assist with light housekeeping. Our Associates use the client/patients cleaning supplies and equipment. We can vacuum, mop, sweep, dust, and clean bathrooms, and the kitchen. As long as you provide us with the schedule on your weekly trash pickup days, we will take out all trash and take the container to the street.
Laundry

Respite Care and Hospital Sitting
We can provide you with much-needed relief to family members and caregivers. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or to cover a hospital stay where the hospital is unable to give one on one care. You can use them a few hours a day up to getting away over a weekend, or overnight so the family can get a full night’s sleep. We are there to help with respite care, no matter what your situation may be.
Companionship
In this service, we specialize in matching someone who will not only relieve your duties but also connect with your loved one on a personal level. We start by meeting with you in a free in-home consultation to determine a program best suited to fit your schedule and individual needs. We then select and introduce a qualified Companion Associate to start providing care. Each service on every visit will be provided by the same friendly face. Service can range from a minimum of four hours to a maximum of twenty-four hours a day.
Pet Care
At Caring Companions, we understand that pets are part of your family and are often therapy for the pet owner. We provide pet care that includes feeding, watering, walking, changing the litter box, and transportation to Veterinary appointments.
