Your details stay with our care team. No obligation, and we never pass them on.
Is it time for some help at home?
Most families call us when they notice a few small things adding up.
- Meals are being skipped, or the fridge is full of food that’s gone off.
- Bathing and dressing have become harder, and they won’t ask for help.
- They’re lonely — days go by without anyone to talk to.
- You live too far away to check in as often as you’d like.
- You’re doing the caring yourself, on top of work and your own family.
Many families start with just a few visits a week. We’ll tell you honestly what we think is needed.
Private home care, built around your parent
Private duty home care simply means you choose the help, the hours and the caregiver fit — no referral needed. Most families start with one of these two.
Companion care
A friendly, reliable caregiver who spends time with your parent — conversation, meals, errands and a watchful eye on how they’re doing.
- Best if they’re lonely or isolated
- Best if they need help around the house
- Best if they’ve stopped driving
Personal care
A trained personal care aide who helps with the daily tasks that have become difficult — always with patience and dignity.
- Help with bathing and dressing
- Safe help moving around the home
- Best after a fall or a hospital stay
Not sure which one fits? That’s normal. We’ll visit, talk it through and build a plan — and it can change as your parent’s needs change.

Dad came home from hospital on a Thursday and North River had someone with him by Saturday morning. Knowing there’s a person awake in the house at 3am is the difference between me functioning at work and not.
