OUR EXPERIENCE

Whole Care for the Whole Person
TheKey’s professional caregivers provide thoughtful, reliable support with daily living, from bathing and grooming to nutritious meal preparation to light housekeeping to safe transportation. Beyond tasks, they bring companionship, conversation, and engagement that help each person feel secure, connected, and at ease in their own home.
Every Care Plan we design reflects this holistic approach. And our expertly trained caregivers understand the importance of supporting each client’s passions, activities, and lifestyle, in addition to their daily care.

What our clients and their loved ones say about our exceptional care experience.
-
Compassionate, Dedicated, and Hardworking
“The 24-hour care that your agency provided for our mom was unparalleled. She had three caregivers, each as compassionate, dedicated, and hardworking as the next. Each caregiver worked eight-hour shifts, which enabled them to stay focused and well-rested, and in turn, provide the best care possible.”
— Client’s Daughter -
Loving, Professional, and Honest
“We were absolutely thrilled with your agency and caregivers. They provided care to my father who had advanced stage Lewy Body Dementia. The caregivers who provided care for my father were loving, professional, honest, skilled, patient, and kind. I worked as a medical social worker in Geriatrics for years and never came across an agency as good as yours.”
— Client’s Daughter -
High-Quality Services
“Your agency has provided quality home care to several of my clients over the years. As a geriatric care manager, I appreciate high-quality services and appropriate follow up to me as the care manager. I would recommend them time and again.”
— Client’s Son
