Butler Rescue Hands, Inc

Each veteran has served this country with courage and commitment, so it is only fitting to provide Now, Butler Rescue Hands, Inc.

Our founder, Garrett Butler, started Butler Rescue Hands, Inc. when he saw the increasing need for non-medical home care and resources for veterans. As a veteran himself, he made sure to keep his promise to his fellow veterans, "helping others find their way home" by opening an organization to cater to the veterans. is committed to giving back to our veterans needing the care they deserve and sometimes need to be made aware of how to obtain them. We make sure to partner and familiarize our team with different resources to cater to the needs of each veteran as much as we can. However, as a non-government organization, we may need more resources to fuel our passion for serving. Even so, this does not stop us from supporting veterans at risk of homelessness or needing a home where they can receive care. We seek to help one veteran at a time to improve the quality of their life and live a fulfilling life in the comfort of their own home, and for those that need a place they can call their own, we assist them with housing alternatives.

Life Skills Training: Building Confidence Step by Step

Life Skills Training (ILST) is about more than daily chores; it’s about restoring independence and dignity.

Our ILST specialists teach practical skills like managing money, cooking safely, time management, and using public transportation. Each lesson is tailored to the client’s goals and abilities, promoting both mastery and self-pride.

We measure progress not by how fast clients learn, but by how confidently they apply what they’ve learned in real life. Independence, in any form, is a victory worth celebrating.

Why Family Training and Communication Matter

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation; it takes a village. Families play a vital role in progress, and when communication between caregivers, staff, and loved ones is strong, outcomes improve dramatically.

At Butler Rescue Hands, we ensure that every family stays informed and involved. Through open updates, progress tracking, and collaborative meetings, we empower families to participate actively in their loved one’s journey.

Knowledge reduces stress. Communication builds trust. Together, they create care that truly transforms lives.

Emotional Health After a Brain Injury

Brain injuries affect more than cognition; they impact emotions, relationships, and self-esteem. Depression, anxiety, and frustration are common, but with the right environment and support, healing can flourish.

Our caregivers are trained to recognize emotional triggers and provide calm, compassionate responses. We emphasize open communication, social connection, and daily encouragement to help clients regain confidence.

We remind families: emotional recovery is just as important as physical progress. Patience, positivity, and understanding can make the difference between surviving and thriving.

The Power of Consistency in Brain Injury Recovery

When living with a brain injury, change can be overwhelming, but consistency creates stability and confidence.

That’s why our caregivers build structured routines: same schedule, same cues, same positive reinforcement. This approach reduces anxiety, improves focus, and helps the brain relearn through repetition.

At Butler Rescue Hands, our staff are trained to observe subtle behavioral cues, adapt to daily energy levels, and use patience-driven methods that meet each client where they are, not where the world expects them to be.

Consistency doesn’t mean perfection, it means progress, one steady day at a time.
