Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Cumming offers several free and low-cost resources for seniors who choose home care. These services include transportation, meals and advocacy. The chart below highlights some local options, with contact information provided.
| Resource | Contact | Service |

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.

Review of BrightStar Care Cumming / Gainesville
It wasn't them, it was my mother-in-law, the services just weren't productive, just it's not their fault. They could have more consistency with the caregivers to help me recommend them more.
