I was looking for some help for my elderly grandma so I turned to the Google. I found plenty of providers and choose 3 to call. I talked with Frank from Cura Care and was I impressed that they were the only one where a real person answered the phone. I interviewed all 3 and choose Cura care. Barb came out and helped us get free care from the VA which really shocked me that nobody else even mentioned this option. My grandma got to choose the caregiver that she liked and we have been using them for almost 2 years and just wanted to post what a positive experience I have had with them. Taking care of seniors is a very hard business but they just really care. When there is issue they are very quick to respond. I have to say I am very glad I chose them.

Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-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.
Guidelines for Talking About In-Home Care

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.
