“Always Best Care is caring for a dear elderly friend in Florida, and I live in Illinois. The quality of caregivers is amazing, superb. I can TRUST them and Marlynn and her staff to CARE for my dear friend/adopted family. ABC provides a whole range of medical and caregiving services for my friend/adopted family member. The caregivers always arrive on time and are wonderful people in addition to being competent caregivers. Our interactions with the caregivers have been appropriate. They are appropriately respectful of their client and my husband and me. At the same time we have enjoyed fun conversations with them and gotten to know them. Marlynn and her staff are very responsive to our requests. She is also able to explain when our request isn’t good for our friend. We would highly recommend using the people and services of Always Best Care and would be glad to answer questions that might be helpful in making that decision.”

“I am a current client of this provider I have been a client of Always Best Care since 2020 and have had the most fabulous caregivers since I started some of who have become good friends. They help me with driving me to my hair appointments, showering and looking my best. Aretta, Sandra, and Rose come weekly and help me get ready for bed and dressed in the morning. They help keep me company since my husband passed away a few years ago. They are always on time and stay extra if I need it. If I need anything the agency responds immediately even if I call at night. I would highly recommend Always Best Care of Jacksonville to everyone.”

I thank you and God for putting us together.”

“I am a current client of this provider I am delighted to share my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional care that my mother has received from the dedicated team at Always Best Care. Since they began caring for my mother, we have witnessed compassion, professionalism, timeliness, and unwavering support. The caregivers at Always Best Care have shown genuine warmth and empathy towards my mother, and their commitment to her well-being is evident in every interaction. They take their role in providing care very seriously and with the utmost respect. They engage in meaningful conversations and provide companionship that provides a comfort to being so far away. This has also significantly impacted my mother's quality of life. Always Best Care's professionalism and communication have been exceptional. They inform us about my mother's health and any developments, allowing us to make informed decisions. The caregivers at Always Best Care have been a blessing and their dedication to providing top-notch care and compassion is exactly what my mom needs. I'm incredibly grateful!”

“I am a current client of this provider Always Best Care Jacksonville has provided in home care for my mother for the last 3 years who has late stage Alzheimer's. They have done a wonderful job providing the same caregivers, with a few exceptions, for this journey which makes it so much easier for us. We live out of town, but we know the ladies who are coming and have been coming consistently the last 3 years. They are always on time and know her better than she knows herself. This is especially helpful since she has no short term memory left. The office has always responded immediately if we have any additional needs and makes us feel like family. They have a family portal for us to log on to see what's going on with mom daily. We look forward to the photos the caregivers post there of what she's doing that day so we feel like we are there as well. They truly live up to their name of Always Best Care!”

“I am a current client of this provider ABC has been absolutely phenomenal in every step of the process in setting up care for my elderly father when my mother passed. Everyone from the owner to the daily caregivers have shown an incredible amount of compassion and desire to help. One of the caregivers, Marsha, is a gem who goes above and beyond. I love the family portal for easy communication and daily updates. Living several states away, ABC is the family care I would like to provide if I were closer. We truly could not do it without the whole team at ABC.”

The caregiver was very kind, always on time, and was a big help, even though my father can be stubborn sometimes. The care was affordable and I wouldn't have chosen anywhere else. The office staff was also very easy to work with and made communication easy. 10/10 recommend!”

“I am a current client of this provider Always Best Care provides a daily caregiver to help me with my husband who has re-occurring throat cancer and Parkinson's. I use the Home Helper Service. Their staff is punctual and does a wonderful job. Our caregiver helps with many of the things on the lists and is thorough and professional. When I call the agency they always help immediately or return my call quickly. They send out helpful articles and tips dealing with the best way to be a caregiver. We recently got information on hurricane preparation from the agency since we live in Florida. I would highly recommend Always Best Care to anyone that needs a caregiver. The person will be highly trained for what ever level you need.”

“I am a past client of this provider When my mom had to come live with me the agency realized she was a veteran and that she was probably eligible for VA assistance with her care. Marlyn called us and got us in touch with a firm that specializes in taking the disability application and getting it pushed through in a fraction of the normal time period. My mom was awarded the help in just a few short weeks! So very thankful for Best Care Jacksonville!”

FAQs About Our Senior Care Services

Female-Caregiver-Mobile Female-Caregiver-Desktop

Senior care services are for people who need ongoing assistance that cannot easily be provided by their family or friends. Studies show older adults prefer to live independent, non-institutionalized lives, and in-home care is a safe, effective way to provide care in the comfort of one’s own home.

The answer depends on the type of care, the location of care and the level of care that is needed. At Always Best Care, we provide a no obligation care consultation and provide information on many options for paying for home care for you and your loved one.

Our company 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. We are dedicated to exceeding your expectations…always

Your Care Coordinator will work with you and your loved one to select the best qualified caregiver for each client. They will carefully review your care plan and try to match the right caregiver with the specific needs of each client. It is our goal and your right to make sure that you and your loved one are completely satisfied with our service and we will bend over backwards to make this happen.

Every Always Best Care location employs all their caregivers, so extensive background and reference checks are conducted. Caregivers are insured for your safety and they all receive extensive training upon being hired and on-going training to keep up with the demand of our industry. What this means for you is that you or your loved one will receive some of the best caregivers our industry has to offer.

The time frame to begin care for a senior will depend on the urgency of the need for the person and family that will be receiving care. That could mean care could start within hours, days or weeks, depending on your needs.

How people pay for senior care depends on their financial situation and the kinds of services they receive. Often, people must rely on a variety of payment sources, including personal funds, government programs, and private financing options.

Traditional Medicare does not pay for 24-hour-a-day care at your home, meals delivered to your home, homemaker services like shopping, cleaning, and laundry that aren’t related to your care plan, custodial, or personal care that helps you with daily living activities like bathing, dressing, or using the bathroom, when this is the only care that is needed.

Home-based care is part of the VA Medical Benefits. All veterans are eligible if they meet the clinical need and it is available.
