Care At Home

02/24/2026

Snow much to do, snow little time! ❄️

While most people are staying warm inside, our dedicated caregivers at Care at Home are bundling up, brushing off their cars, and showing up with the same compassion and commitment our clients rely on every day.

Snowstorms may slow the roads, but they never stop the care. From helping with morning routines to providing companionship and support, we’re honored to be there when it matters most.

To our incredible caregivers navigating the snow today — thank you for your dedication. And to our clients and families — stay warm, stay safe, and know we’re always here for you. ❄️

❄️ Office Closure Notice – Care at Home ❄️

02/18/2026

We are so grateful when families take the time to share their experiences with Care at Home. Receiving a heartfelt Google review that highlights the difference compassionate in-home care can make truly means the world to our team.

Supporting families in keeping their loved ones safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own homes is at the core of everything we do at Care at Home. Feedback like this reminds us why we show up each day with dedication and heart. It reflects the trust families place in us and the meaningful relationships built along the way.

To every family who welcomes us into your homes and shares your stories — thank you. Your trust inspires us to continue providing the highest level of care and to keep making a difference, one family at a time.

When Is It Time to Bring in Extra Help at Home?

It’s a question many families wrestle with quietly.

Mom is still independent… but she’s not cooking as much.
Dad insists he’s fine… but he’s had a couple of falls this year.
Your spouse says they don’t need help… but you’re exhausted trying to do it all.

Sometimes the signs are small, but meaningful:
• Missed medication reminders
• Increased forgetfulness
• Unsteady walking or recent falls
• Difficulty keeping up with housekeeping
• Caregiver burnout

At Care at Home, we often meet families in that in-between stage — not quite ready for a facility, yet needing more support than family alone can safely provide.

If you’re unsure whether it’s “time,” that’s okay. We’re happy to talk it through and explain what an evaluation would look like — no pressure, just guidance.

Bringing in help doesn’t mean giving up independence. More often, it helps protect it.

A little extra support can bring peace of mind, restore balance, and let families get back to what matters most — simply being family.

Because staying home should still feel like home.

Laissez les bons temps rouler! 💜💚💛

Mardi Gras is all about celebration, music, color, and connection — and it’s a wonderful opportunity to create joyful moments with the seniors in our lives.

Here are some fun and meaningful ways to celebrate with older adults:

Host a mini parade at home or in your community with beads, masks, and festive decorations. Play classic New Orleans jazz in the background and let everyone join in the fun.

Make simple Mardi Gras crafts like decorating masks or creating bead necklaces. It’s great for fine motor skills and creativity.

Have a King Cake tasting party. Share the tradition and see who “finds the baby”! Pair it with coffee and conversation about favorite celebrations from the past.

Start a music & memory moment. Play songs from their younger years and encourage storytelling. Holidays like this are perfect for reminiscing and connection.

Cook a simple Cajun-inspired meal together — even something easy like jambalaya or beignets can make the day feel special.

Celebrations don’t have to be big to be meaningful. Sometimes it’s just about bringing color, laughter, and togetherness into the day. 💜

How will you celebrate Mardi Gras this year? 🎭✨

President’s Day was first established in 1879 by President Rutherford B. Hayes to honor George Washington’s birthday on February 22. It was the first federal holiday to celebrate the life of an individual American. Over time, it has become a day to recognize all U.S. presidents and the leadership that has guided our nation 🇺🇸🗽.

At Care at Home, we are inspired by those same values—dedication, service, and commitment to others. Every day, our caregivers bring care, support, and compassion into the homes of the people we serve, helping them live safely and comfortably.

Today we recognize the leaders who guided our nation and the enduring commitment to service that strengthens every community ⭐🇺🇸.

What a great experience connecting with fellow professionals in such a fun and engaging format. Events like this give us the opportunity to move beyond introductions and job titles and really get to know the people behind the work. Those authentic connections are what strengthen our community and ultimately help us better serve the individuals and families who rely on all of us.

Thank you to Complete Care at Groton Regency for hosting and to everyone who participated. We’re grateful to be part of such a collaborative and caring network.ll

Did You Know? 💡

Many families assume home care only begins when a situation becomes urgent — after a fall, a hospital stay, or when things start to feel overwhelming.

Starting non-medical home care early, even just a few hours a week, can be incredibly helpful. Support with meals 🍽️, light housekeeping 🧹, transportation 🚗, or mobility assistance 🚶‍♂️ can reduce fall risks, ease day-to-day stress, and help loved ones stay safe and comfortable at home.

Home care isn’t about stepping in and taking control — it’s about adding an extra layer of support that encourages independence and peace of mind.

Sometimes a little help at the right time can make all the difference!
