From Our Owner Enriched Hearts Home Care was founded on the need to age better in your home. After over a year of me taking care of my grandfather with dementia, we had to put him in a nursing home. After being in & out of several facilities, our nursing home experience wasnt the best. I saw first hand the impact it had on my grandfather and our family. As I think of my parents, I want to avoid this, and be able to provide a solution for them to age as they wish, in the place they love - their home. That is why I founded Enriched Hearts Home Care.

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
