“I have worked with more home health agencies than I care to remember, both in GA and MI, when I worked in healthcare; and I have to say that Always Best Care is one of the best home health care agencies that I have found since the early 90’s !!! I have been a client with Always Best Care since February 2022 and I have been extremely pleased with the help I have received both from my caregivers and the office staff. All the staff work hard and the quality of care is exceptional!!! The few occasions that I didn’t like a caregiver because of either poor work ethic or personality, Always Best Care always took care of finding another caregiver to better meet my needs ASAP!! When I first started with Always Best Care I did get a few caregivers that weren’t a good fit. But, within a very short period of time my scheduler learned my specific needs and personality and she found caregivers for me that were a wonderful match!! As in every area of healthcare, the high turnover of employees is to be expected!!! But, Always Best Care has always made sure that I have a new caregiver that matches my needs and expectations!! I have and would, highly recommend Always Best Care for your home health daily care!! Candace”

“We used ABC several years ago for my dad, after he had a stroke. I called a few months ago to set up a care plan for my elderly mom. She had a hip replaced, and lives alone. I knew we would feel better having someone there to help her and visit with her until she could get up and around on her own. ABC works through our scheduling nightmares (mom tends to send people home early, and tell them not to come back)….and they have been SO patient with our ever changing and increasing needs for mom. Their response time and communication are impeccable!!”

“We have used Always Best Care two different times for our Mother. Both times the care was excellent. I have referred Always Best Care to several people.”
“Hi my name is Linda and I’ve been working with always best care for 2 years now and it’s a great atmosphere I like coming in to work meeting new people. It’s a place that’s kind friendly and it makes you feel at home it makes you feel that you’re working with people that understand you know you’re different needs your different hours and if something come up they are there to help you with anything that you need help with it’s a great company I’m so glad I signed up with the company I signed up a little bit after the pandemic and I just needed somewhere that I could really consider myself at home or I find a home and I have I’m amazed at how the people are so nice when you talk to them on the phone how nice they are friendly you can tell this saying it with a smile I enjoy working there I tell people ask me where I work at always best care they like what yeah always best care yes it’s a nice company sign up with it you won’t regret it I’m glad I do it I’m really glad I did”
“After working a month or so at Always Best Care,I began to realize the consistently positive atmosphere and environment I am working in. I have worked in several types of work,but found that working at ABC was easily the best environment I have worked in in my life. There is no unnecessary criticism that I have experienced here and any suggestions for me were meant for growth and not a critique.We have positive reinforcement consistently.Granted it takes a certain type of person to do this type of work.And it.If your purpose in life is to give compansionate personal care to other human beings,when they need it the most,you won’t find a more suitable environment to do it than at Always Best Care.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Great place to work at very professional and appreciative for their staff”
“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 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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“I am a past client of this provider 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.”
“I am a current client of this provider Always best care is a good name for this company as they always give me the best care possible my caregiver is very compassionate and very helpful”

It’s becoming more and more common for families to live far apart from each other, and leaving an elderly relative alone at home can be a major source of anxiety if you’re not nearby. Always Best Care provides the reassurance you need that your loved ones are safe and happy, with a compassionate caregiver available in case of an emergency. We’ll help them handle their daily tasks so that you can manage your own life with confidence and peace of mind. In addition, home care is often considered a healthier and more affordable option for families when compared to long-term nursing facilities.
Choosing an in-home senior care provider can be a daunting task. However, there are a few guidelines to keep in mind. First, ask your friends and family for recommendations. If you’re unable to get any suggestions, search for local and state organizations that recognize the best providers in the industry. Doing so can help narrow down a shortlist of home care agencies. Next, set up meetings with your top choices and ensure that they meet your criteria. Don’t forget to ask your senior for their opinion, too. Doing so will help you make an informed home care decision.
When hiring an in-home care provider, it’s important to ensure that they are insured to protect you and your loved one. Always Best Care not only provides our clients with insurance coverage but also Worker’s Compensation. That way, in the unlikely event that an accident occurs while a caregiver is working in your loved one’s home, you are protected against any claims or damages. These protections not only benefit you and your loved one, but also directly benefit our caregivers, enabling us to attract some of the most skilled and compassionate individuals for Home Care in Mishawaka.
In the mid-90s, Always Best Care founder Michael Newman grew frustrated by the lack of resources available for seniors in his community. That frustration helped him shape a vision: to create a home care company that would provide trusted care, compassionate support, and professional advice for seniors and their loved ones. In 1996, Michael channeled his frustration into founding Always Best Care, which has since become one of the nation’s leading providers of in-home care for seniors. Today, people with passion continue to make Always Best Care what it is today. While times may change, our company’s commitment to compassionate home care will always remain the same.
To provide the best home care in Mishawaka, we believe that it’s crucial for seniors and their caregivers to build a strong relationship that is fortified with trust. Without it, all parties can suffer. However, at Always Best Care, our caregivers are allowed requested vacations. There may also be times when caregivers become ill. In such cases, a substitute caregiver takes responsibility for your loved one’s care. We inform the substitute caregiver about all your loved one’s likes and dislikes to minimize disruptions. If additional care is required in the morning, afternoon, and evening, we will do our best to accommodate.
We understand that many seniors can lead mostly independent lives, but occasionally they may need assistance. At Always Best Care, we’re thrilled when we can schedule a caregiver in a very short turnaround. That’s why we’re happy to offer part-time in-home care for seniors in Mishawaka. Our team of compassionate caregivers can be `available to assist your senior loved one morning, noon, and night.
Our home care providers in Mishawaka can assist with a wide range of services to help your senior live a fulfilling, independent life at home. Some of our most requested home care services include the following:
• Light Housekeeping
• Medication Reminders
• Community Activity Escorts
• Companionship
• Meal Prep
• Nutrition Monitoring
• Incontinence Care
• Transportation and Errand Running
• Dressing and Grooming
Contact our Always Best Care office today to learn more about the additional home care services we offer.
We believe that safety is one of the most important aspects of home care in Mishawaka. As such, we train our caregivers to assess your senior loved one’s home to identify any potential hazards that could lead to accidents. Before providing in-home care services, we will perform a safety assessment of your loved one’s property to identify ways to make their home safer. This may include introducing grab rails in hallways or showers or making other small changes. To ensure ongoing safety measures are met, your caregiver will continue to monitor your senior’s mobility and recommend any necessary equipment or technology to make their life easier and safer.
Yes. We understand that, with time, a senior’s home care needs can change. If they do, your Care Coordinator will be there to re-evaluate and adjust your non-medical home care services in Mishawaka as needed.
Our senior home care providers in Mishawaka are dedicated to delivering compassionate, exceptional care. That dedication often translates to specialized training and preferred areas of focus. Please don’t hesitate to inform us of any unique health needs or requirements your loved one has during your care consultation with Always Best Care.
