Paying for home care shouldn't be complicated. If you live in Minnesota and need personal care services, you may be eligible for coverage through Medical Assistance, which is Minnesota's Medicaid program.

What if the best caregiver for your loved one is someone they already know and trust?

At Best Care, we believe family caregivers provide some of the most compassionate, personalized care possible. In fact, more than 90% of at-home care in the U.S. is provided by a family member or relative.

So why not help them get paid for the care they're already doing?

Whether you're the person receiving care or the caregiver providing it, you'll benefit from Best Care's award-winning support. We believe that when caregivers are supported, everyone thrives.

Today's sandwich caregivers typically fall between the ages of 40 and 60. They find themselves providing care for their own children (often teenagers or young adults) while also supporting their aging parents.

Sandwich generation burnout can occur when trying to manage these competing demands, especially if many people are relying on you for emotional support. This constant pull in multiple directions can be exhausting!

If you happen to find yourself on the East Coast anytime soon, be sure to stop by and visit the newly reopened Disability History Museum. It was closed in 2020, but was recently reopened in a brand-new, 4,500-square-foot gallery space in Albertson, N.Y.

Officials of the museum say they are working towards creating a larger museum focused on disability history on the National Mall in Washington. Wouldn’t that be awesome?!
