Recovery from stroke is measured in ordinary moments.
Getting dressed. Navigating the kitchen. Communicating when words are hard. The gap between what a stroke survivor can do alone and what they need is where daily life happens — and where a consistent, trained caregiver makes the difference.

Non-medical in-home support for stroke survivors — steady, patient help with the daily tasks that recovery demands.

What in-home stroke support looks like.
Stroke recovery is different for every person — the deficits depend on the stroke's location and severity, and recovery timelines vary widely. What's consistent is that the daily demands of living with post-stroke limitations require steady, patient support that clinical visits alone can't provide.
Serv caregivers who work with stroke survivors are trained to assist with the physical challenges — mobility, transfers, one-sided weakness — and the communication challenges that some strokes create. We work alongside occupational and physical therapists, reinforcing what's being learned in sessions throughout the rest of the day.
We also provide the consistency that matters: the same caregiver, the same approach, building trust with someone who may feel frustrated, frightened, or grieving the person they were before.

When families reach out about stroke support.
Stroke changes daily life suddenly. If any of these are true, it's time to talk.
Your loved one is returning home from a hospital or rehab facility
The first weeks at home after a stroke are high-risk. A caregiver bridges the gap between clinical discharge and full recovery.
Daily tasks have become unsafe or exhausting to manage alone
One-sided weakness, balance issues, and cognitive changes can make ordinary tasks dangerous without support.
Family members can't be present full-time
Recovery requires consistent support. If family can't provide it reliably, a caregiver fills the gap without placing that burden on anyone.
Communication challenges are isolating your loved one
Aphasia and speech difficulties after stroke are frustrating for survivors and families alike. A patient caregiver who learns how to communicate effectively makes a real difference.
You want someone reinforcing therapy between sessions
Physical and occupational therapists recommend exercises and strategies that are most effective when practiced consistently. A caregiver helps that happen.
Long-term post-stroke limitations require ongoing support
Some deficits don't fully resolve. Ongoing care helps your loved one live as fully and independently as possible with those limitations.
Stroke recovery is a long road. We'll help you figure out what kind of support makes the most sense at this stage — and adjust as recovery progresses.
Ask If This Is a Good FitWhat happens between your first call and care beginning.
Here is what actually happens between your first call and your loved one having a caregiver in their home.
You start the conversation
Tell us what's happening at home. What you're worried about. What a good day looks like now, and what you'd hope it could look like again. We listen first.
We meet in person
One of our Operating Directors comes to you. We learn your loved one's routines, preferences, and what matters to them. Then we design a care plan around that — not a template.
We match your caregiver
We match by fit — personality, experience, and schedule — and then introduce the caregiver before care begins. No one starts until everyone is comfortable.
We stay involved
Needs change. We check in regularly and adjust the plan as your situation evolves. You always have a real person to call — not a scheduling system.
In most cases, care can begin within 24 hours of your consultation. Learn more about how it works →
Services that pair naturally with stroke support.
Stroke survivors often need multiple types of support, especially in early recovery.
Post-Hospital Support
For the immediate post-discharge period, post-hospital support and stroke care work closely together to manage the highest-risk weeks at home.
Learn about this service →Overnight & 24-Hour Care
In the early weeks of recovery, continuous caregiver presence may be needed. As recovery progresses, coverage can be reduced.
Learn about this service →Companionship & Social Engagement
Stroke survivors are at risk for depression and isolation. Consistent companionship supports emotional recovery alongside physical recovery.
Learn about this service →Choosing a caregiver is a decision you live with every day.
You're trusting someone to step into your loved one's home, their routines, their most private moments. A name on a list isn't enough. You need a team that actually knows your family — and shows up like it.
