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

"We found Firefly Home Care a year ago for my mother. After she passed away we went to the VA and they said my dad needed some help. We found out about Firefly through the VA. There was a consultation first. We knew one of the employees; we had asked for her so she's been coming out. Right now, she is coming one day a week for 2 hours. She'll go to the grocery store for my dad, do the cooking, do laundry, and of course visit with him. Our caregiver is very good and very caring. We really like her. She tries to make my dad comfortable. She watches out for him. My dad likes Jell=o so she'll make it for him every week. She's very helpful to him and he enjoys her coming. "

"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."

"We had the agency come in to explain what they can do for my parents. The intake person, Jen, was extremely professional, intelligent, caring and easy to understand. Within a minute of her being there I knew this was the right agency for my parents. Jen made us feel very comfortable and my parents warmed up to her immediately. My parents told her to sign them up and we can't wait to get started tomorrow. For Jen's managers: you are very fortunate to have such a caring and professional person selling your agency. Hold on to her!!!"

"Very pleased with my service. Kathleen goes out of her way to see that I get what I need. I'm very, very blessed to have an understanding person that I can count on. Thank you for your good service."

"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. "

"Seasons HomeCare is highly recommended to us. When the owner came out, he was very personable. My parents really like them. They just adore the person they send to the house. That's what ended up selling us -- it is the care that they're giving. My parents have a lot of animals, and it took them some searching for somebody who can put up with the animals and the amount of the work that it would take, but this caregiver never complained. She is just very good with my parents. This is the second person that they tried, and she is a perfect match for my parents. She is a college student, but you can tell that she really cares about my parents and she cares about the job. She doesn't look at it like it is just a job. You could tell by the work that she does that she really does care. "

"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."

Kind, caring, giving and always a helping hand. If you can get them for yourself or your love ones do it they are the best!"
