We specialize in non-hands-on, non-medical home care services designed to make life easier, safer, and more comfortable. Our focus is on day-to-day essential needs, offering compassionate support that promotes independence and helps our clients stay in the comfort of their own homes.

Whether you're looking for a companion to keep you company, someone to assist with errands or meals, or simply a trusted person to check in regularly, A Piece of My Heart Homecare is here to serve with professionalism and heart.

What Are Non-Hands-On Home Care Services?

Non-hands-on services refer to supportive care that doesn’t involve direct physical contact such as bathing, dressing, or medical procedures. Instead, these services address the practical, social, and emotional needs of individuals who require a little extra help managing their daily routines.

These services are ideal for:

Seniors who live alone and need companionship or routine support.

Individuals recovering from illness or surgery who aren’t ready for hands-on care.

Adults with mild cognitive decline who need reminders and structure.

Family caregivers who need relief and peace of mind.

Our caregivers are trained, background-checked, and dedicated to supporting independence, dignity, and well-being.

Our Core Non-Medical Services

1. Companionship and Social Engagement

Loneliness can affect mental and physical health, especially among older adults. Our caregivers provide meaningful companionship through conversation, games, walks, reading, and shared hobbies. We build real relationships with our clients, offering not just care—but friendship.

2. Meal Planning and Preparation

Proper nutrition is essential for wellness. We assist with grocery shopping, meal planning, and light cooking, making sure meals are tasty, healthy, and in line with any dietary restrictions. From breakfast to dinner, we help make mealtime easier and more enjoyable.

3. Light Housekeeping and Home Organization

A clean, safe home can reduce falls, improve mood, and support overall wellness. Our caregivers assist with light chores like dishes, dusting, laundry, and organizing. We help keep things tidy, so our clients can relax and enjoy their space.

4. Errands and Grocery Assistance

Need to pick up a prescription, mail a package, or get groceries? We’re here to help. Whether we drive the client or run the errands ourselves, our caregivers make sure daily tasks are completed efficiently and with care.

5. Transportation to Appointments and Activities

Getting to a doctor’s visit, church, or community event shouldn’t be a struggle. We provide safe, friendly transportation and assistance along the way—helping clients stay active and connected to the world around them.

6. Medication Reminders

Managing medications can be overwhelming, especially for those with complex routines. Our caregivers offer gentle, consistent reminders to take medications at the right time, avoiding missed doses or double-dosing. While we do not administer medications, our support helps ensure consistency and safety.

7. Daily Wellness Checks

A quick check-in can offer peace of mind to families and early alerts for potential issues. We can drop by, make a call, or send updates as needed to ensure our clients are doing well and feeling supported.

8. Technology Assistance

From helping with phone calls and texts to setting up telehealth visits or showing clients how to use a tablet, we help bridge the tech gap so clients can stay in touch with loved ones and access resources.

The Benefits of Non-Hands-On Support

Our clients choose non-medical home care for many reasons—but the benefits are always meaningful:

Independence

We support clients in staying active in their daily lives while still maintaining control over their routines and choices.

Comfort at Home

There’s no place like home. Our services help clients age in place safely and comfortably.

Peace of Mind for Families

Knowing that someone is checking in, helping with meals, and offering companionship eases the burden on family caregivers.

Customized Care

Every individual is different. We tailor our services to meet each client’s unique needs, preferences, and schedule.

Affordable Support

Non-medical care is often a more cost-effective alternative to full-time care or assisted living, especially when hands-on services are not yet needed.

A Typical Day with A Piece of My Heart Homecare

Here's an example of how a day might look for one of our clients:

8:30 AM – A caregiver arrives to assist with breakfast. Together, they prepare a heart-healthy meal, share conversation, and review the day’s plans.

10:00 AM – Time to run a few errands. The caregiver helps make a shopping list, accompanies the client to the store, and assists with carrying and putting away items.

12:30 PM – Back home, lunch is prepared. After a meal, the caregiver reminds the client to take their afternoon medication.

2:00 PM – A short walk around the neighborhood or maybe a game of checkers. Companionship keeps the mind and body active.

4:00 PM – A few light housekeeping tasks are completed. The caregiver updates the family with a quick wellness report.

5:00 PM – As the caregiver wraps up, the client is relaxed, nourished, and ready for a quiet evening.
