Better at Home is a program that helps seniors with simple day-to-day tasks so that they can continue to live independently in their own homes and remain connected to their communities.  Information and referral, minor home repairs, light housekeeping and light yard work are the services presently available.  Volunteers and paid contractors provide these non-medical supports to help seniors 65 years and older remain in their own homes for as long as possible.

Client Testimonial 

Kate began her career in Health Care at the age of 23. Together with her husband, she raised four children.

Today, her husband still manages to load the larger items into the dishwasher, while Kate is able to stand and wash their cups for about ten minutes before needing to rest. She also maintains some independence by cleaning the bathroom sink.

Kate shares that the Better at Home Program Housekeeping Services have been invaluable—especially with tasks like cleaning the kitchen and bathroom. She describes the housekeeping staff as wonderful, kind, and understanding. Truly, a tremendous help.

Having these services has made a meaningful difference in her life. They have helped her minimize feelings of depression and eased her worries about dust and dirt building up in their home—even with visits just once a month. As Kate says, “Our home feels civilized.”

She is deeply grateful for the thoughtful check-ins from the office staff, noting, “You just don’t get that anywhere else.”
