The 10 Best Home Care Agencies for Seniors in Elkhart, IN for 2025

"I am using Griswold Home Care for South Bend and Elkhart for my wife. Everything's been good, so far. I can't complain. They come in and make sure my wife takes a shower. It's only two hours, three days a week, so she doesn't fall. Also, they help her get dressed, pick out her clothes, and help her with her make-up, and get her ready, so she's very presentable. If the weather is decent, she takes her out and sits outside for a little bit with her. They also provide some cleaning in the house. They do sweeping, light cleaning, and things of that sort. The caregiver understands how to speak to my wife. My wife's hard of hearing. She won't wear hearing aids. She used to talk up so she could hear, and they got along very well. I haven't had any problems with them."

"Comfort Keepers is a local in-home care agency. They have provided me with a fantastic caregiver, Sherri W. She has been a TREMENDOUS helper/lifesaver/friend for me and my mom, Evelyn N., was has Alzheimer's. I had to move from my life (full-time job) in Dallas, Texas to bring my mom home to South Bend, Indiana in order for her to be in a more familiar place. When I moved back here last June I was under a tremendous amount of stress from the move, change in my lifestyle AND dealing with my mother's worsening condition. I take care of my in my home 24/7. If it wasn't for Comfort Keepers connecting us with Sherri I don't think I would have made it this far in this journey. She is a wonderful, good-spirited individual who gives mom undivided attention while here and treats her as if she's her own family member. They had sent us several other caregivers who were very kind in their own way BUT mom did not connect with them like she has Sherri. Mom will let her paint her nails, re-pot plants with her, exercise, decorate cakes, etc. - ALL these activities she will NOT engage with me in. She lifts mom's spirits and enjoys her visit. Thank you Comfort Keepers for giving us Sherri W. "

"My wife, Susan, had a stroke 20 years ago that left her totally paralyzed on her left side. I began with Sr1Care about 10 years ago when we moved into their service area. Sr 1Care put together a team of caregivers that were trained in the specifics of caring for Susan. Whenever a caregiver had a family emergency and couldn't come to work, another fully trained caregiver would take over. Unlike previous caregivers we had used, Sr1Caregivers never say "That's not in my job description". Sr1 caregivers help Susan get showered and dressed and they help her with her toileting, as you would expect. They also help Susan with her Kindle reader and her laptop computer. They pick up our little dog and put her in Susan's lap when Susan want's to pet her furry friend. They laugh at her jokes and her stories, even though she has told the same ones over and over and over again. As my health and Susan's health have both declined, we have needed almost 24/7 coverage. Sr1caregivers are well trained to do whatever task is requested, and when no task is needed, they fade into the background so we don't feel like they are intruding on our lives. I can't give enough thanks to Sr1 and all of their staff who have helped Susan, and in the process, helped me."

"Very good care and service."

"The care they provided for Vernon was great. All the caregivers were really good to him. The caregivers had Christian upbringings which was really important to him. They not only helped him with his daily needs but also helped him around the house. We had them for 2 years and didn't have any problems. "

"Very helpful company. the were able to help me take care of my mother especially when I had to work or was out of town "

"I’m very happy with GT Independence. They’re very reliable. I’ve had 3 different women from them, and unfortunately, one had to go back to school, and the other one had to move, but the woman I have now is very good. There’s no problem with the billing."
