Elder Care at Home That Puts Clients First

Commonwise Home Care provides the best alternative to assisted living for elderly parents who want to age in place.

We hire caregivers selectively.

We use a proprietary hiring process to ensure our caregivers demonstrate emotional intelligence, possess necessary skillsets, and are passionate about caring for older adults.

We offer in-home memory care.

Aging adults should have the option to age in their homes, especially those with dementia. All our caregivers can provide dementia care at home so that your loved one doesn’t need to move to a new facility

We support families collectively.

Our two-tiered approach enables Commonwise to better support seniors and their families. Caregivers aid older adults in their homes, while care managers work as intermediaries between families, caregivers, and insurance companies.

In Their Words

  • We had a very positive experience with Commonwise. Although we worked with several agencies previously, we were looking for a different model and our palliative care team from Roper offered Commonwise as one of their referrals. I researched the company and we had the good fortune to work with an amazing team supporting both of my parents for seven months. I can't say enough about the professionalism, quality, competency, and wonderful care the entire team provided to our family. Due to our mother's declining health, we had to choose other options in the end, but we recommend Commonwise Home Care to anyone looking for a top tier company who will ensure your loved ones are well cared for in their home or other care facility.

  • I am the Director of Resident Services for a large upscale active retirement community. I have recommended Commonwise to our residents and families for the past 3 years. I, along with residents and families have found them to be dependable, caring and responsive to concerns. Their care staff is dedicated to their clients, dependable, courteous and caring. They provide well trained caregivers. I have never had a negative experience with them nor have I received any complaints from residents or families. On a scale of 1 to 5 I rate them a 5!

  • Commonwise is hands down the best company I’ve found who really cares about taking care of their employees as well as they do their clients. All of the staff are so sweet and truly care about making sure the client and their families have the best care possible! Absolutely recommend!

  • Three months ago I hired Commonwise Home Care to provide 24/7 caregiving and medical case management for a lady for whom I am friend and guardian. They have so far been fantastic! The level of care and companionship they provide has been many levels above what we have experienced in the past. Their case management nurse Janine is wonderfully competent, friendly and kind. Although they are quite pricey, I heartily recommend them for the care they deliver
