"Maureen is just a bright star. When she comes and I am in a lot of pain, she would listen and always has encouraging words to say. Maureen is an excellent cleaner. She always has a fun joke or story to tell me. I would recommend her not only for her cleanliness skills but her read of people. "

"I used Eli Home Care to help with my sister's care while I was at work. She was unable to do normal household chores due to her illness and they were a Godsend. Laundry, light cleaning and doing the grocery shopping was a tremendous blessing. When I couldn't take off work for 1 of her appointments, they even transported her to her doctor. The young lady that was her caregiver was always prompt courteous and I could tell that it was more than just a job for her. She truly cared. I would definitely recommend this company. "

Comfort Keepers Mission Our mission is to provide our clients with the highest level of quality of life that is achievable. We shall treat each of our clients with the respect and dignity they deserve, as though we were caring for a member of our own family. The special people who deliver our unique brand of in-home senior care (We call them *Comfort Keepers*.) are carefully selected, screened, and trained to provide professional, compassionate care. About Our Office Comfort Keepers of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, began operating as a home health agency in 2005, serving seniors and their families in and around Sioux Falls, Brandon, Dell Rapids, Hartford, Canton and Beresford. The Sioux Falls Comfort Keepers franchise was founded with the goal of providing seniors high quality, personalized care with a staff of professional, compassionate senior caregivers dedicated to providing each client the caring attention they would provide a family member of their own. These senior caregivers, and the positive results they achieve for their clients, have earned Comfort Keepers a great deal of respect in the Sioux Falls region. We hire only experienced caregivers who have a heartfelt desire to serve seniors. We refer to these senior caregivers as Comfort Keepers. They consider senior caregiving a calling – not a job. Our Philosophy Interactive Caregiving is based on four primary pillars, which Comfort Keepers leverage to care for, engage, and interact with our clients: An active senior mind promotes independence, better mental and physical health, happiness, and a longer life. A physically active senior maintains strength and independence, lessening or delaying the effects of aging. A well-nourished senior is more energetic, both physically and mentally. A safe senior lives in an environment that reduces the likelihood of accidents and promotes timely response when illness or accidents occur. With our Interactive Caregiving approach, we are able to raise seniors’ quality of life to a much higher level than typical in-home care providers.

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.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place.

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.
