Author Comment / Biography: For most of us the word “home” evokes warm feelings of comfort and well-being. For older adults, home is the place where they spend time with loved ones and feel secure. Their home is where they are surrounded by their favorite things and where they have created cherished memories.
When illness, injury or aging makes life a little more challenging, being at home in a comfortable environment with assistance from trusted caregivers encourages recovery, improves self-esteem and enhances the quality of life.
ComForcare is a premier provider of private-duty home care services to people of all ages. We can help make life easier for those coping with a chronic medical condition, recovering from an illness or injury, or dealing with the challenges of aging – in the comfort of their own homes.
ComForcare started providing home care services in 1996 as a single office in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, USA. The success of this operation led to the start of the ComForcare franchise system in 2001. Today ComForcare has more than 130 locations throughout the United States and in Canada and the U.K, and we continue to grow.
Our personal care aides, certified nursing assistants and home companions are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We can provide services for as little as a few hours a week to around the clock, every day in any setting you call home – whether it be a private residence, a skilled-nursing facility or an assisted or independent-living community. Our caregivers can provide personal care, homemaking, transportation, companionship and family respite services.
Every ComForcare location employs only professional caregivers who are experienced, compassionate, reliable and truly have a passion for caring for others. ComForcare’s 10-step hiring process is the most thorough in the Home Care Industry, and our comprehensive training and continuing education programs ensure that our caregivers are uniquely qualified to deliver the highest level of service to every client.
