Why Hallmark Homecare is preferred by many families

An Approach for Modern Times

Caregiver shortages, escalating costs, improvements in technology, Increased regulation, and a new cultural mindset have combined to make it advantageous for families to hire experienced, independent caregivers directly. This new approach provides key advantages over the traditional homecare agency, including:

More control: You make the decisions!

More consistency: Everyone benefits from stable caregiver-family relationships

Experienced & credentialed professional caregivers

Able to meet more extensive needs: Including 24/7 care and Live-In arrangements

Happier caregivers: Increased satisfaction with higher wages and more stability

Affordability: You will likely spend less than the alternatives!

Meet Your Local Office:

My husband, Kenney and I both love to serve people and serving aging adults and their families is one way we can best do that. We have seen, firsthand, a growing need for in-home care after watching my mom care for my dad. Often the assistance was inadequate to relieve my mom as the full-time caregiver, ever changing caregivers and only short respite care.

For years, we have wanted to own our own business but have never come across one that we believed was right for us... that is, until we learned about Hallmark Homecare. At the core of Hallmark’s mission is the simple belief that seniors, regardless of physical or mental limitations, aspire to live fulling and independent lives. That’s what we wanted for my dad and that’s what we want for other seniors in our community!

We know that Hallmark Homecare’s unique approach as a direct-hire model is what the in-home care network needs! We seek to provide the best experience for seniors in our community by giving families more control and greater caregiver consistency. We do this by providing families with access to the best-matched caregivers. We find, screen, and match professional caregivers as independent contractors. This allows clients to experience a consistent and affordable alternative to the traditional homecare agency model.
