Home Care in Kansas City, MO
Caring.com’s Senior Living Report places Kansas city third among the best places to live in Missouri and 161st nationally. Factors that influenced the score include excellent air quality and plenty of options for food lovers, culture, parks and outdoor exercise. The 2021 Genworth Cost of Care Survey shows the typical senior in Kansas City pays $4,957 per month for their home care, a non-medical service for frail but otherwise healthy seniors. Home health care is the equivalent for seniors who need limited medical care, while those who require more assistance have many highly-regarded facilities to choose from, including the University of Kansas Hospital and Saint Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City.
Below we’ve compiled a comprehensive directory of every home care provider in the Kansas City area – complete with services offered and reviews from families who’ve actually used the service. In addition to our in-depth provider listings, we’ve compiled resources to help seniors and their families to access all the tools they need to age in place safely and gracefully.

<p>From the very beginning, we wanted to keep things simple. We wanted to provide the most personalized service available, so our clients could stay at home comfortably for as long as they choose. After taking a look at how home care was structured both at home and around the world, we found one resounding theme among home care recipients: people want consistency and customization. For this reason, we implemented our One-Client One-Caregiver Concept and assigned each client to their own Care Coordinator. We went a step further by keeping case loads for Care Coordinators as small as possible, so that they have ample time to get to know all of their clients. In line with our mission to provide the highest degree of personalization, all of our Care Coordinator are available to clients, their families, and caregivers 24/7. They manage and update each client’s ever-changing care plan, communicate with caregivers, and make home visits as frequently as ne cessary.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Our One-Client One-Caregiver Concept is an extension of our emphasis on customization and consistency. After an initial assessment and caregiver placement, we focus on keeping the same caregiver or team of caregivers in place. In this manner, the same, knowledgeable staff is ever-present and random caregivers are never sent. Should there ever be a change in the regular caregivers for any reason, the Care Coordinator or Primary Caregiver will personally introduce the new caregiver to the client. Our client’s comfort is our top priority and we believe home care should not be characterized by a revolving door of providers.</p>

After interviewing several agencies, we selected Private Home Care because they seemed most in touch with what we wanted for my father and because they listened to and shared our goals. After several falls and a long hospitalization, my father couldn’t be left alone at all. He required 24 hour care. We were reluctant to move him to an assisted living community because he was resistant and because we felt that his decline- already quick and shocking- could be exacerbated by a move. Private Home Care’s caregivers and staff have been through it all with our family and my dad as he quickly adjusted to his new normal. They kept him safe in his home-his and our main goal-and that was no small feat! Our family will be forever grateful to the people that have entered my father’s home and have become an integral part of his life. In these times of isolation, the caregivers not only keep my father safe, but also provide friendship and attention. They allow him to remain as independent as possible and to continue to thrive. Private Home Care also helped put us all at peace and have made this journey as smooth as possible for everyone.
Our family has been with Private Home Care for almost 5 years.

Paying for Home Care in Kansas City, MO
The Cost of Home Care in Kansas City

The state’s costliest city is St. Louis, where seniors are likely to pay around $5,482, while the most affordable is Cape Girardeau, at $3,756. Columbia typically costs more than Kansas City, at $5,053, while St. Joseph may interest those with tighter budgets, as its average is $4,767 per month.

Financial Assistance for Home Care in Kansas City, MO
Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
- Long-Term Care Insurance: Long-Term Care Insurance covers expenses related to senior care, including in-home care. Depending on the policy type, beneficiaries may receive a cash payment to use towards long-term care or reimbursement for qualifying long-term care expenses. Note that there are limitations- typically a maximum benefit of $150 per day- and exact coverage terms vary depending on the exact policy, so always check the details.
- Medicare: Medicare does not cover in-home care because it is classified as custodial, or non-medical, care. However, some Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, which offer expanded benefits, may cover in-home custodial care.
- Medicaid: Medicaid coverage of in-home care varies between different states because it is not a federally mandated benefit. Currently, all states cover some in-home care either through their standard Medicaid or a waiver program. The specific coverage rules are set individually by each state.
- Veterans’ Benefits: The Aid and Attendance benefit is a monthly cash payment that beneficiaries can use to pay for senior care, including in-home care services. To qualify for A&A, Veterans must already receive the VA pension and meet several additional requirements, including needing assistance with the activities of daily living.Contact the Department of Veterans Affairs to learn more.
- Reverse Mortgages: Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECMs) are federally insured loans that are available to homeowners age 62 and over. Reverse mortgages allow you to access a portion of your home’s equity in cash, tax free. Many seniors use reverse mortgages to finance their care expenses, including in-home care. Note that although there are no monthly payments due on reverse mortgage loans, borrowers do have to repay the loan once the last surviving homeowner passes away, moves, or sells the home.

Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-Home Care

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of services can a home care agency in Kansas City provide?
Although home care agencies generally deliver the same services, it’s prudent to check before signing a contract as some may not offer all potential services, such as overnight stays. However, help with daily tasks (such as getting in and out of bed), personal care (including bathing, toileting, and hairstyling) and housekeeping are common to all. Many agencies also offer grocery shopping, transportation and companionship services, while some specialize in respite support.
What should I look for in a good home care agency near me in Kansas City?
The first step should be creating a list of the services required and comparing it to what your chosen agencies offer. Check with friends as they may be able to recommend agencies they have had good experiences with, and check Caring.com’s home care services page for Kansas City, as this provides extensive information about each provider, including user reviews. When you call an agency, ask lots of questions about their policies and procedures, particularly relating to staff recruitment and training. A good agency should be able to answer these questions immediately without having to get back to you.
What is the difference between in-home care and home health care?
In-home care is a non-medical support service that provides general assistance with daily living tasks, such as housekeeping, grocery shopping, transportation and getting in and out of bed. Personal care services are also an option, with caregivers helping seniors bathe, dress and access toilet facilities. Home health care is a medical service with qualified professionals, such as registered nurses and therapists delivering limited medical support in the home. It may also involve staff using home-appropriate medical equipment and visits from doctors.
What is a home care plan?
A home care plan is a document detailing the services to be delivered by the agency for the senior. Its contents are generally the result of agreements between the senior and the provider, sometimes with input from family members and occasionally a medical professional. It’s effectively a contract that states the services to be delivered and their frequency. It should also include emergency contact details so the agency knows who to call should the need arise.
Assisted living homes vs. home care: how to decide
The answer mostly comes down to the senior’s living preferences — staying at home or residing with other seniors in a facility. Both services provide housekeeping, personal care and transportation services, although home care agencies offer more scope for personalization (which will impact fees). A major difference can be human contact, as assisted living facilities encourage socializing between residents and staff on-site 24/7, while home care involves visits from caregivers, with seniors otherwise on their own or sharing time with friends and family.
