Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, dementia or other memory issues can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. Our caregivers provide the specialized support needed to help seniors continue to live safely, and comfortably at home—where they feel most secure and at ease. Because home is where seniors belong—preserving familiarity, and helping them find joy and purpose in each day.
Each care plan is customized based on the senior’s cognitive needs, personal preferences, and daily routines.

Yes. We offer flexible respite care options, whether a few hours of support is needed, extended shifts, or temporary 24-hour care. This gives family members time to rest or travel while their loved one continues to receive attentive care at home by our staff members.
Memory care can be considered long-term care. At Options Home Care, we accept private pay, long-term care insurance, and Medicare Part C Advantage Plans for the memory care services.
Long-term care insurance is a private policy purchased years before care is needed, often in your 40s or 50s. It helps cover extended support with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and mobility due to aging, illness, or disability. Unlike health insurance, it is designed specifically to pay for ongoing custodial care at home, in assisted living, or in a skilled nursing setting.
If you have long-term care insurance, benefits begin once you meet eligibility requirements, which typically include needing help with two or more activities of daily living or having a cognitive impairment. Our team works directly with all long-term care insurance companies to verify your coverage, initiate your claim, document services, and guide you through the reimbursement process so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.
Activities of Daily Living, often called ADLs, are basic self-care tasks that a person must be able to perform to live independently. These typically include:
ADLs matter because many benefits programs use them to determine eligibility. Most long-term care insurance policies require that a person need assistance with at least two ADLs before benefits begin. Certain veterans’ programs require assistance with three ADLs to qualify for home care services.
If your loved one is struggling with these daily tasks, we can help assess their needs and guide you through the next steps for coverage and care planning.
Many of our veteran clients receive care through the VA’s Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care program. This program is part of VA health benefits and provides non-medical assistance in the home to help veterans remain safe and independent. Services typically include help with bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and other daily activities.
As an accredited VA community care provider, Options Home Care can be paid directly by the VA to provide approved home care services.
To qualify, veterans must:
Once approved, we work closely with the VA and the assigned social worker to deliver consistent, personalized care at home. We can also help you through the application process.
Some veterans and surviving spouses might also qualify for additional support through programs such as VA Aid and Attendance, which can help cover non-medical home care costs depending on service history, discharge status, care needs, and financial guidelines.
In-home memory care services allow your loved one to stay in a familiar space instead of moving into memory care facilities, assisted living facilities, or a nursing home. Unlike memory care communities or a memory care unit, care happens at home with a focus on personal care, daily routines, and one-on-one dementia care. This often feels less overwhelming than a structured environment in senior living settings while still supporting those with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.
