Assistance Home Care was instrumental in helping a family member remain at home longer than anyone expected.  The office support was outstanding, very dedicated to communicating any scheduling changes or concerns related to our family member.  The home care workers were exceptional as well, AJ in particular worked tirelessly to provide care far beyond what could reasonably be expected, sometimes after her shift had ended.  She took a genuine interest in the outcome and we will always appreciate her for that.  The same can be said for Carl, also remarkable, his humble service, thoughtful nature, and sincere ministry stand out and really deserve recognition.  The task presented was not an easy one so we appreciate the support that we received from AHC.  Thanks again!

We had occasion to utilize the services of Assistance Home Care for our 95 year old mother when she returned to our home from a hospital stay.  She came home weak and depressed since this was her 5th time in the hospital in 5 months.
We had 2 RNA's, Maya and Kristen, who came to our house and worked with her 5 hours every day of the week.  They cared for an infection that she developed in the hospital, prepared breakfast and lunch for her, helped with showering and dressing as she needed it and encouraged and monitored her physical therapies to regain her strength.  But, most importantly, they listened to her, letting her rest when she needed it and just visiting with her when she needed to talk. Because of their care and encouragement, after 3 weeks she was able to go on a 10 day visit to her 2 great granddaughters out of state.  We can't thank them enough!

We are so happy with Assistance Home Care. We absolutely love his caretaker Kevin. He takes such excellent care of my dad.  He is very caring with him.  In November of 2025 my dad had a silent massive heart attack, when Kevin was with him.  Because dad has a pacemaker, he couldn’t  feel the heart attack, but Kevin knew something was not right.  He was supposed to be off duty, but refused to leave him until someone could get to the house. My sister got there first and Kevin stay to help get him in the car.  Kevin asked us to call him, when we knew what was going on with him.  Because of Kevin, my dad is still here.

Our family is so thankful for Assistance Home Care.  We worked closely with both Amanda and Vicky to ensure Mom was well cared for.  Mom was recovering from hip replacement surgery, and Dad had cancer, so finding the right person was essential.  Vicky and Amanda chose a caregiver they knew would be a "good fit" to care for Mom.  In addition, Assistance Home Care offers a special service in which monitors can be placed in various rooms in the house that will detect a FALL.  This was ideal, given both Mom and Dad's health issues.  We are thankful that Dad's fall was immediately detected.  Everything was OK, but it's an amazing piece of technology.  We would definitely recommend Assistance Home Care.

We have been using Assistance Home Care for about 1 1/2 months. They are awesome to work with daily. The staff is helpful and the in home workers are providing great care & support that makes my mothers life easier and I have peace of mind. And, as we were settling in, we had to make changes to the schedule. Assistance Home Care has, and continues to be so flexible. I highly recommend this company!!!

We have been very happy with the professional staff that are taking care of my parents.  They have done what has been asked of them  with kindness and caring with my parents being top priority   They assisted me at the drs office appointment with much needed help and acted very professional. The dr office staff called me to ask me what company we were using because they said they were the most respectful and professional they have seen ( shout out to Bryla!) I couldn’t have done it without her help
Working with Chris has been a great experience. We have regular check-ins and has made several trips out to my parents home to make sure all is running smoothly and has given us some very helpful safety suggestions. He has worked with us to make sure the professionals are good fit
He is working tirelessly to make sure everyone is happy and that there is open and good communication between our family and them
From personal experience I can say we have had a positive experience with assistance home care

I have Assistance Home Care   I am Sooo PLEASED with the care I have been given. I have four girls that are assigned to me. They are like family. Or should I say sisters? They take care of my meds and when they should be taken. They are always asking can I fix you something to drink or eat. If I have to go to the doctor they will take me. I was in the hospital for two days and one of the girls stayed with me. She gave me better care than the hospital nurse. If someone is reading this and needs  home health care or someone in the family I would HIGHLY recommend them.

My 95-year-old father has recently started receiving home health care assistance through the VA, and as part of this process, we’ve been working with Assistance Home Care. I am often reluctant to give compliments,  but our experience with Amanda (Program Manager) and KiKi (my dad’s aide) has been nothing short of exceptional. What began as an “arranged relationship”has turned into a relationship we deeply value.

If I were actively seeking home health care, I would undoubtedly recommend Amanda and her team. Their professionalism, dedication, and level of care are extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to work with an organization that combines kindness, compassion, and high standards in everything they do.

Katelyn was on time and very helpful. She was pleasant and performed the tasks we needed done. She helped us rearrange our furniture to accommodate our ability to move around the living room better. Katelyn was observant, respectful, and capable. While her personal characteristics were a plus, we think that she was well trained on how to work with senior citizens.

Assistance Home Care has provided excellent care for my father. The care givers are excellent- caring, competent, and attentive.  AHC has tried, but has not always been successful in, maintaining a consistent care team. When an upset occurs, they work diligently and communicate well with me to find a solution. They have worked collaboratively with me to ensure the caregiver team gets any further instruction or training when my Dad’s condition has changed.  I highly recommend them!

Amanda was a godsend! My father recently had to be transported by ambulance to the emergency room. He is 97 and was in great health prior to this. The hospital treated him and inserted a catheter that needs to stay in. Unable to get out of bed and have his regular routine I was lost as to where to start. Amanda came to the rescue and did a quick in-house evaluation and set everything up. With her direction a care giver had been set up within a couple days and my father is able to be sponge bathed and hopefully be dressed soon. They are able to help him if he falls and monitors are also set up to evaluate any falls and collect information for additional medical care. I didn’t want him to go into assisted living because his mind is sharp and didn’t want him to feel abandoned by the family. He is now able to stay with me and have the care he needs that I was unable to provide by myself. I am very grateful for Amanda and cannot be more thankful for her assistance.

The service is priced competitively and is worth it.  Any issues are addressed immediately and I feel lucky to have found them.

This company is different from any agency I have used in the past. Although we were only with them for a few months due to health status changes, we used 40 hours a week of care and were provided with consistently superior caregivers. I am quite grateful to each of these people and to the company for stepping up when we needed help and providing it in a carefully selective consistently excellent way!

We used Assistance Home Care for my mother with Alzheimers who also fell and broke a hip. Ernestine was the best caregiver. When my mother wouldn’t respond to us it was Ernestine who could get her to do whatever we needed. Taking pills, eating walking etc. She was so great with my Dad giving him someone to talk to as he was struggling with caring for her. I can’t say enough about our experience with Assistance home care. They are the BEST!!!!

Patricia & I met @St Louis Rehab. I decided Immediately to use Assistance Home Care after my meeting with her.
She came to my home on numerous occasions & introduced me to Vee who is equally compassionate!
I would W/o a doubt recommend them and already have!

There are so many emotions and responsibilities involved when a loved one suddenly finds themselves in a whole new world due to an incapacitating event. This was the case when our 97 year old mother suffered a serious stroke.  Up until the stroke, she had been living independently in her home for over 60 years.  While a skilled nursing facility (SNF) may offer the best chances for rehabilitation, the very nature of a SNF makes it difficult to provide the kind of personal attention that elderly care requires.

This is where Assistance Home Care (AHC) comes into the picture.  In our Mom's case, the stroke had left her with a partially paralyzed right side and the inability to talk, but very cognizant of her situation.  While being strong-willed would help with the various therapies needed in her recovery, it also made her actions at night unpredictable and potientally harmful when there were less structured activities available.  AHC was able to provide care professionals to be with her at the SNF from 7PM-7AM.  Eveything from personal care, feeding, dressing assistance, cleaning, and just "being there" to advocate for her provided invaluable help to Mom and peace of mind for us.  Perhaps the biggest supporter of AHC was Mom herself.  When we asked if she thought that she no longer needed AHC, she let us know by a number of non-verbal communication methods that she absolutely wanted them there at night!  Decision made. :)

In addition to the services provided, AHC is very proactive in communication.  Whether it was questions about policy or an issue that needed addressing, responses and actions from not only our case manager but from any of the staff members were quick and decisive.  There is also a portal called the "Family Room" that allows family members to view daily care logs, schedule of care professionals, invoices, and the requirements for the AHC care professionals requested.

I would highly recommend talking to AHC to provide home care services for anybody in need - be it in the home or in a SNF.

Asia was fabulous, she was always on time, arrived with a smile on her face and took care of all of my moms needs. In addition she cleaned the house and did laundry.  I highly recommend Assistance Home Care and Asia if you need a caregiver.

They make sure she’s comfortable and happy while giving her the support she requires. The communication with the team is also fantastic; they’re always there to answer any questions we have.

I highly recommend Assistance Home Care. They’ve made a big difference in my mom’s life, and I’m so thankful for their help!

I needed assistance for a loved one very quickly.  I was given a few referrals and liked the story behind the business and of course their ratings.  The staff which I worked with, Jessica, Chris, Vicky & Pam have been spot on in terms of service and understanding our needs.  The care team coming to our home are kind, considerate and have provided excellent assistance and companionship as needed.  It has been such a wonderful resource during a stressful time and the assistance in going to medical appointments is so helpful.  A very special thank you to the care team.  I am very pleased with their efforts.

We were hesitant to contact an agency because we worried about having people unknown to us in our home. As our requirements for assistance grew, it became a necessity and Assistance Home Care was suggested by our physical therapist. That was the best call ever. After we visited in person with Chris, he told us he had someone in mind and she came the next day. He chose the PERFECT person for us and I think we are a good match for her. We could not be  more thankful for the agency’s careful consideration of who we are and what we needed. It is also reassuring to know that if our person were to be ill or on vacation, the agency would put the same careful consideration into a substitute for her.
