Local, personal care for New Haven County families
ElderCare Services is a family-owned home care agency headquartered in Orange, so New Haven County isn't just part of our service area. It's home. We know the towns, the hospitals and the doctors' offices our clients visit, and we know how much it means for an aging parent to stay in the house and neighborhood they love.
Every client starts with a detailed in-home assessment. From there, our owners build a personalized care plan and carefully match your loved one with a caregiver, then stay personally involved with ongoing case management. That's something you won't get from a large franchise.

Hospital to home
Coming home from the hospital or rehab?
The days after a discharge are when seniors are most vulnerable to falls, missed medications and readmissions. Our caregivers help New Haven County families make that transition safely, with help getting settled, preparing meals, keeping up with medication reminders and getting to follow-up appointments.
Call us as soon as you know a discharge date. We'll schedule an in-home assessment and have a care plan ready, so your loved one isn't coming home to an empty house.

★★★★★
“My 85 year old sister had a major stroke… She initially required 24 hour care at home after being discharged from rehabilitation. I decided to try ElderCare Services because they were highly recommended to me. I have not been disappointed with my choice… The Live-in Caregiver that Gail and Al assigned to my sister is a perfect match. I am particularly impressed with their compassionate and comprehensive case management style.”
