What drives our passion for expert care services
To work as a united team providing the best senior care in the world, with the broadest range of services, and the most loving and consistent care anywhere
To be the leader in compassionate senior care
We are committed to providing you with the best care for your specific needs
In the mid-1990’s, just outside of Sacramento, California, Michael Newman felt frustrated by the lack of resources for seniors in his community. An owner and operator of facilities for seniors, he saw many seniors and their loved ones arrive at his facilities confused and overwhelmed after trying to find the right assisted living community. This frustration eventually shaped his vision: To create a company that would serve seniors in the community by providing trusted care, compassionate support, and professional advice.
In 1996, Michael acted on his vision and founded Always Best Care. Since that time, Always Best Care has become one of the nation’s leading providers of non-medical in-home care, senior living referral services and home health care. Always Best Care was formed with the belief and agenda of taking the burden off of the families’ shoulders and putting it on our own. People with passion have made Always Best Care what it is today. Although times may change, our foundation never will.
Michael Newman believes that a successful senior care company is built on successful relationships at every level, in all directions. The things that make every relationship work make business relationships work too – caring, trust, respect, and communication. These are the values that guide our relationships with our clients, franchisees, employees, vendors, our community, and everyone we touch. Caring relationships are the foundation of our work – a sincere concern for the betterment of life that goes beyond just doing what is required, but doing the most we can for the seniors entrusted to our care.
Always Best Care began franchising in 2007 and today provides services through a network of more than 225 franchised territories across the United States and Canada.
Since 1996, Always Best Care has helped thousands of families with non-medical in-home care and assisted living referral services. In select markets we’ve also added skilled home care for clients that suffer from illness or injury.
Our passion for helping people maintain a safe, independent and dignified lifestyle represents the strong foundation of Always Best Care. Every client receives extraordinary care in an inspiring environment with caring and compassionate people. Our Care Coordinators have worked with thousands of seniors across the country, and we’re always ready to help you!
Our vision:
The Always Best Care resources include an extensive library to help you make better informed decisions on senior care and more. Our vision is to work as a united TEAM providing the best senior care in the world – with the broadest range of services, and the most loving and consistent care anywhere.

“Great place to work at very professional and appreciative for their staff”
“I have used quite a few different providers and ABC is by far the best company. From the office staff to the caregivers, they are doing what they love and it shows.”
“I have used a couple other companies to manage my care also but Always Best Care is by far the best. From the caseworkers to the caregivers, I always feel important.”

Thank you”
“They really help people when they need it”
“I’ve had caregivers for about 5 years now. Only having been disappointed and frustrated. Since Always Best Care came into my life, my worries have ended. I never knew if previous caregivers were going to show up, or do what I needed. Everytime they would complete a task, they would sit down and be on their phone. Kari and Jamisha finish a task and right to the next. No problems. My mind has been put at ease. They are very professional yet so so friendly. They ask, what else they can do for me. I also have my ABC emergency call button. Now I have peace of mind if an emergency should arise. My case coordinator Stephanie Stevens. Stays right on top of my case. Thank you so much for making my life easier. I have recommended your company to others that may need assistance in the future.”
“Overall a great company to work for! They do a wonderful job recognizing caregivers; from big recognition like a monthly caregiver award and random drawings, to small recognition such as any time you visit the office you are free to grab snacks, beverages, gear and more often than not there is some type of food they have ordered that is available. They really don’t hold back in this area! There has been quite a bit of changes made in office positions within the last year. Response time, outside of the scheduling department, can be improved upon.”
“They were my mother’s caretakers up until we moved away to seek life saving treatment. It was hard for them at times, because sometimes the homecare aides sometimes called off last minute. One time something came up missing, and the owner personally delivered a replacement. They’re not perfect but they try their best.”
“Carole is an excellent caring professional. She has been extremely helpful in advising us and in scheduling care. With respect to the caregivers, we have no complaints. We want to give a special thank you to Rhona for her time and effort in creating a special bond with our mother.”
“I would recommend Always Best Care. They were so helpful. The people that cared for my dad were kind and attentive. They were quick to respond and help get the paperwork completed. They were great all the way around.”
“I Love working for ABC.”
“I want to thank Always Best Care for the outstanding services provided for our family during my husband’s recent illness. You took care of all his personal needs, provided companionship, moral support when he needed it and made sure he was always as comfortable as possible. We are so grateful for that. In the meantime our ABC helper made every effort to keep the household running smoothly. The skills that come to my mind when describing the staff at ABC are dependability-patience-kindness and respect for the patient and family. They demonstrate a genuine concern for the folks under their care. This organization truly lives up to its name. I extend my heartfelt thanks once again for all you have done for this family. We asked for help and you gave us much more than we expected.”

“I have had the best help from best care . My main two worker’s are Denise she comes out to my home everyday….never complains about anything just falls in the door working, from the minute she gets here till the minute before she has to leave. Denise is a wonderful person! Sabine is the other I talk about, she is the head of the girls….. she is one of the most caring people that you’ll ever meet”
“After meeting with several agencies, she knew right away that Always Best Care was the one for her. This decision wasn’t because of a flashy sales pitch; it was because they were genuine, kind, and straight forward, qualities important to Janet. All of the family was comforted by knowing that Janet was getting the care she needed and that this care was in the hands of wonderful people who were willing to take the time to understand Janet’s needs. We know they really did care for Janet—this was not just a job—and went above and beyond to assure she received the support she needed. We feel blessed that Janet found ABC care and will be eternally grateful to Always Best Care and their staff for being there for her when we could not be.”
“I highly recommend Always Best Care-Michiana for assistance in taking care of a loved one based on our families experience using them. We found the provided Caregivers well trained and prepared. They exhibited excellent skill sets and good chemistry causing a very quick trust and acceptance with our Dad. Our Family had a special comfort level when they were in our home”
“People are lucky if they have Always Best Care as their provider. My current caregiver Brittney is very kind. I have Sabrina who helps me with everything I need.”
“Professional company that guided us through the process. They provided a trained and personable home health aide that my Mom enjoyed. The agency staff genuinely cared about my Mom. We’re grateful for their support.”
“The staff at Always Best Care in Mishawaka Indiana are some of the best staff members I have worked with in any field but especially in senior caregiving services. I have worked with them since August 2018 and have nothing but good things to say about what I We them accomplish together everyday in taking care of their clients and employees. In particular, Taysha, Scheduler, Robin, Sabine, Client Service Coordinator, Carole, Client Service Director, Danielle, President of Always Best Care, Wendy and her husband are all exemplary in what they accomplish every day for their employees and their clients. This company is one of the best to work for as a caregiver. I am happy to state that I work with them in providing caregiving for people needing caregiving in our area.”
“On behalf of our family, I want to thank you for the tender loving care you gave my mother during her last days. Roxie, her caregiver, was always prompt & caring and many times went beyond what was expected of her. When she passed, Roxie was holding her hand. I will always be grateful for that. What a gift to my mother and also a gift to our family as well.”
“The primary caregiver, Brittany for my mom has been amazing. She is attentive and always engaging with my mom. Anything that interests my mom, Brittany adopts and makes sure my mom is able to do what makes her happy! Additionally, Sabine has been amazingly responsive and loving towards our family and our ever changing needs!”
