Empowering Independence Through Customized, RN‑Led Home Care in Fort Lauderdale & Nearby Areas
Living in the comfort and familiarity of home for a lifetime is a goal for many people.
There’s great peace to be found in remaining in control of our environment and daily life choices. This is an option for many older adults, through the support of a skilled and experienced in-home care provider.
At Jewish Family Home Care, we understand the value of home. It’s our goal to ensure that home continues to be a safe haven, where independence is at the forefront of each individual’s life.
To accomplish this, we first meet with you to listen to your concerns and develop a care plan to address them. A Registered Nurse is available to answer your questions, and we have staff available who are fluent in the following languages: English, Spanish, Creole, French, Hebrew, Russian and Yiddish.
Our care professionals, guided by a registered nurse, will provide just the right level of assistance in any of the following areas:
Dementia Care
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia requires specialized training and expertise. Our caregivers are highly adept in helping those with dementia to feel at ease and to maintain purpose and meaning.
Personal Care
Personal care services empower older adults to maintain their preferred lifestyle and routines, with just the right level of support. Some of the many ways an in-home caregiver can help include bathing, preparing nutritious meals, medication reminders, and more.
Overnight Care
Overnight care provides the peace of mind that a professional caregiver will be in the home and awake during the evening hours to maintain routines, enhance safety, and help with any needs that may arise.
24-Hour Care
When around-the-clock assistance is needed, 24-hour care is the ideal solution. We offer a combination of caregivers who live off-site, in rotating shifts, so that someone is always available, awake, and alert to meet both daytime and nighttime needs.
Post-Surgical Care
Recovery after a surgical procedure or hospitalization is eased through our wide range of post-surgical care services. Care during this time is also a vital component to preventing complications and the possibility of a rehospitalization.
Respite Care
It’s crucial for family caregivers to take regular breaks from caregiving for self-care. Respite care services are available for just a few hours a week, overnight, for an extended vacation, or any time a family needs additional support.
Chronic Illness Care
A chronic health condition is easier to manage with the help of a trained and experienced care professional. Some of the conditions we’re able to help with include Parkinson’s disease, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, COPD, and more.
Veteran Care
Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for no-cost home care through the VA Aid and Attendance pension—and we’re here to help every step of the way. Through our partnership with the VetAssist® Program, we can get services like personal care, companionship, meal prep, and more started right away, even before VA approval comes through. It’s our honor to serve those who’ve served.
Personal Emergency Response
A personal emergency response system (PERS) offers the assurance that help is available at the touch of a button, anytime, anywhere. We’re pleased to partner with Guardian Care for a variety of personal emergency response and monitoring tools.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Home Care Services
It can become challenging to continue to live at home when impaired mobility, cognitive issues, or a chronic health condition impact independence and safety. Home care offers the support needed to make living at home for a lifetime an achievable goal.
What is the process for starting home care services?
The first thing we do is schedule an RN visit to evaluate the specialized needs of the individual.
Next, we develop a specialized in-home care/service plan that is customized to enrich the physical, mental, social, and emotional lives of the individuals in our care.
Finally, we pair the individual with a caregiver. We understand it may be difficult for older adults to allow someone to come into their home to care for them. Because of this, we take careful consideration in finding a caregiver who matches the person’s personality, schedule, and care needs.

What if I live far away from a loved one who needs care?
It can be challenging to provide the care and support needed for a parent or older loved one from afar. Whether you live across the state or across the country, you want to make sure your loved one is able to enjoy the freedom of living in their own home for as long as possible.
We understand the challenges of long-distance caregiving. Our skilled caregivers provide support for older adults so they can age in place for as long as possible. Whether the person needs just a little extra help or requires daily care, we work with you and your loved one to determine the best level of care, custom-tailored to their needs.
With RN-led care, families can feel confident knowing that care plans are regularly reviewed, monitored, and adapted to ensure an optimal level of care. Additionally, caregivers receive ongoing training and RN supervision to ensure they are equipped and confident to provide appropriate care for each individual.
