There was a need for professional geriatric care management services to prevent hospitalization and nursing home placement in the elder population. Care for Life was designed to keep Charleston’s senior population safe, independent, and in their homes as long as possible.
Our close relationships and fond memories of our great grandparents are the foundation for Care for Life’s values and services. In the past, senior family members were assisted by their children and grandchildren, but those times have changed. Care For Life’s professional staff and home care aides develop care plans to address the problems associated with aging and chronic disease. Our practice is to follow a designated plan and work as a team with families and community resources to support seniors in their homes, wherever home may be.
During the past 25 years, Care for Life has cared for hundreds of clients and their families throughout the Charleston, SC community. Our home care agency has demonstrated a level of skill and experience that is the highest quality name in homecare in the areas we service.
