Core home care
Core Home Care
Services
We are not a medical agency — we are the hands-on help with daily life, plus the company and the watching-out that keeps a person safe between visits. These are the services most families start with.
Personal care & dignity
04Bathing, grooming, mobility, and the privacy that comes with it.
Companion & daily support
06Meals, laundry, rides, reminders, and company that fills a day.
Specialty & peace of mind
04Memory loss, hospital sitting, respite, and paperwork at home.
A visit
Somebody who knows the routine, and shows up for it.
A bath, a meal, the mail, a steady hand on the walk to the bathroom — the ordinary things, done the way the person prefers them, by a caregiver who keeps coming back.
Not sure which one fits? That is a normal place to start.
The work itself
This is what
a visit looks like.
Not a uniform at the door and a checklist. Ordinary help with the things that have become hard — done the way the person prefers it, by a caregiver who keeps coming back.
A warm towel, held steady
Personal care that is private, fully covered, and never rushed.
A hand steadying a cup
Reminders at the right time — a reminder, never a hand on the bottle.
Dinner started before she asked
Meals planned, cooked, and set on the table while someone keeps you company.
A walk down the hallway together
Steady help with mobility, transfers, and getting out to appointments.
Beds made without being asked
Rooms tidied and kept safe to move through, without anyone having to say so.
Two chairs, one conversation
Company, tea, a game of cards — a day that stops feeling long.
These are photographs of the ordinary work — not of any one client. We care for people of every race, faith and background in this county.Serving Decatur City, Morgan County & surrounding areas
Who we care for
Families who are
figuring it out.
Usually it starts small. A parent who is steadier on some days than others. A spouse whose memory has begun to slip. A neighbor with no family nearby, or a family doing it all themselves and running out of hours in the day.
You do not need a diagnosis or a hospital discharge to call us. You need an honest conversation about what is hard, and someone who has done this before.
- Older adults who want to stay home
- Adults living with a disability
- Families caring from a distance
- Caregivers who need relief
Beyond the basics
ACP Signature
Services
Specialized programs & personalized support designed to enhance quality of life.
The programs below are what families ask for once the basics are handled — recovery after a hospital stay, help with the phone, a reason to get the photo albums out. Each one is built to order and can be scheduled on its own.
Personalized services are quoted after a conversation — nothing here is added to a plan without your agreement.
What a week can look like
Care that looks like an ordinary good day.
Not clinical. Not a uniform in the doorway. Somebody who shows up, knows the routine, and makes the day easier.
Rides & errands
Out of the house, and back
Appointments, the pharmacy, the grocery store. Someone beside them the whole way, and home again before they are tired.
Peace of mind
Relief for the family
You can be a daughter or a son again instead of a shift supervisor. We take a few hours so you can breathe.
When care happens
The schedule bends
to the household.
A few hours a week, an overnight, or around the clock. You tell us what the days actually look like and we build the shifts around them.

Getting started
Three steps,
and someone is with you.
It starts with a conversation, not paperwork. Here is exactly how a family goes from the first phone call to a care plan in place.
- 01
Free Phone Consultation
A no-charge phone call to talk through the situation and answer your questions. No obligation, and no pressure to start care before you are ready.
Free — no charge
- 02
Schedule Your Initial Care Assessment Home Visit
We come to the home, meet the person who needs care, look at how the days actually run, and see what would help most.
Please note
- This assessment visit carries a non-refundable fee.
- Reassessments also come with a non-refundable fee.
- A reassessment does not include a shift change or a change in hours of care.
Affordable rates, based on your individual assessment
- 03
Individual Care Planning
A personalized care plan built to meet each individual client’s needs — the services, the schedule, and the caregiver match, all written with the family.
The handoff
A familiar face at the door, not paperwork.
We ask how the days actually run — what is working, what has become hard, and what the family is carrying alone. Nothing gets scheduled until that makes sense to everyone.
Step one costs nothing.
Call the office and we will talk it through — including whether now is the right time for care at all.

The Meaning Behind
Our Name
The name Advantage Caregiver Plus, LLC was chosen with purpose. It represents a vision, a commitment, and a heartfelt mission.

At Advantage Caregiver Plus, LLC, I want to plant those seeds. I want to watch caregivers gain knowledge, build confidence, develop their skills, discover new opportunities, and blossom and flourish both professionally and personally.”

In her own words
“I decided to write The Heart That Cares because, being in this field for over 35 years, I’ve come to realize that caregiving is more than a job, more than a paycheck. It’s a love, a passion, a gift, and a calling. It starts from the heart and comes from the heart.
You are loving beyond yourself, beyond your own family. The love and care you are providing comes from a place that requires you to give more of yourself than you sometimes have to offer, but you don’t stop, you keep going. You keep doing what you know you were called to do, because you have the Heart That Cares.”
