Our Story
A-Abiding Care, Inc. was founded in 1983 by Joyce Kernan – a registered nurse and pioneer in the field of home care – on the principles of showing clients kindness and respect for their individuality and dignity while providing the loving, compassionate care they need.
Today, Joyce’s family, along with longtime administrative and caregiver staff, continue her legacy and mission; to provide quality home care services to families in the Chicago area & provide meaningful employment for caregivers, nurses and staff.
The yellow rose is the trademark of A-Abiding Care, chosen by Joyce Kernan for good reason. A yellow rose is the traditional symbol of loving care; it symbolizes our commitment to care, not only to our clients, but also to the work we do each and every day.
As a team, we feel honored to care for our community members - your loved ones - and to be a part of their lives in a meaningful way. If you would like to learn more about our caregivers, our administrative team, or our services, please contact us at 847-698-1400. We’re always happy to answer any questions you may have about home care in general or the services we can provide for your loved one.
