When my grandmother in Elmwood Park needed care, I had reservations about bringing in a live-in caregiver from Homewatch.
I feared it might compromise her independence. However, the reality was far from my fears.
Our caregiver integrated seamlessly into her life, offering the support she needed while still upholding her autonomy.
Seeing her flourish while retaining her independence, even as I lived in Englewood, was an enormous relief.
The essence of Homewatch's creed, Home is Where the Heart is, truly came alive in their service. Reflecting on it now, life before their assistance seems a distant memory.
They've been an absolute godsend for our family's elder care journey.
