How Are We Different from Other Home Care Agencies? One area is that we use HomeCareQuote.
What is HomeCareQuote?
It’s an AI-powered quoting tool that provides customized, transparent, and clear pricing for home care services tailored to your loved one’s unique care and safety needs, delivered in a shareable PDF.
Why is it Important to you? It starts with Trust & Transparency.
* Clear, Upfront Pricing – No surprises. Get a detailed breakdown of services and costs.
* Personalized to Your Needs: Every quote is based on your specific care situation; it's not a one-size-fits-all price, because we know people, nor their care, are the same.
* Faster, Smarter Decisions – With real information in hand, you make an informed decision about care.
* The HomeCareQuote Care Spectrum gives you a color-coded, visual graph of where your loved one is relative to their current care needs. Seeing is believing.
* HCQ-AI Summary PDF of the quote and care needs.
* It is easy to understand and see, not abstract or full of industry jargon or acronyms. We want you to see it, understand it, and experience the difference.
* Turn a Chaotic situation into Clarity & Calm.
Our Mission: Committed to Compassionate Home Care Services
Home Care Matters is an aging-in-place provider of care services to (primarily) seniors in their home environment. We allow them to remain in their homes, where they want to be — happily, safely, and independently — so they can age in place with dignity and grace.
History
Established in 2011.
Our founder & owner, Valerie Darling, had a personal experience caring for her mother, Dee Darling, for five years, which is why the business was born.
Meet the Business Owner: Valerie D.
Valerie started Home Care Matters after caring for her own mother for many years. She combined her professional & corporate experience with a personal vision of how to deliver a better experience, service, & quality of care. She determined that the best way to achieve this was to start a local, community-based business that is personalized, customized, and characterized by heartfelt care and a passion for people (both clients and caregivers). She and the HCM team are obsessed with service.
Valerie says, "Through my own struggle to access help and resources to care for my mother, I recognized the need to assist others in navigating this enormous and complex healthcare system. And now, we are answering it.
We operate Home Care Matters under our moms’ heavenly watch. We continually strive to make her proud of the work we do, always honoring her name and memory. Every. Single. Day."
