Full job description available upon request
Choosing the right health care provider can be difficult. Often, the decision must be made quickly. One agency can seem exactly like the next.
How do you choose the one that’s right for you...and the people you love?
At Assisted, we can help. We’re different—not just in the types of health care services we offer, but in the way we deliver them.
Privately owned and operated since 1989
Some health care agencies are part of a large multi-state company, with layers of management. At Assisted, we’re privately owned and operated.
That means we care for you with a more personal touch, supported by a team of experienced employees—some of whom have been with us from the beginning.
What’s more, our employees are fully screened, completing criminal background checks before they are hired. You can trust the staff members who visit to take care of you.
A full continuum of care
From home health and non-medical caregiver services to palliative care and hospice, we offer a range of services to meet your short- or long-term needs. We provide these services wherever you are—at home, in a personal care residence, a hospital or wherever you choose.
We also offer temporary supplemental clinical staff to other healthcare organizations.
An award-winning reputation
Assisted is fully accredited and licensed by a variety of state and federal organizations, including Medicare.
In addition, we have earned the prestigious designation as a HOMECARE ELITE Top Agency.
