In-Home Senior Services in Charleston, WV
Village Caregiving is the biggest privately owned in-home care service provider in the United States, and we provide care options to clients in over 50 locations across the U.S.

Custom In-Home Care Plans in Charleston, WV
Many factors can affect the type of care a person needs in their home. We consider these factors when you choose to use our services. We offer personalized care that we tailor to our clients’ individual needs.
Initially, we will meet to discuss your general needs and preferences or those of your loved one. Once we know these requirements, we can start planning and examining health care, ambulation, transport and daily activity assistance. Finally, we must determine to what extent family members will participate in the care plan. Family participation and support are important in ensuring our clients have a strong support network. That’s why we try to include family members through every step of the process!
We want our in-home care to be as affordable as possible. We accept a variety of insurance options and direct payments, but what makes us stand out in the industry is we will advise potential clients on what federal or state insurance options they are eligible for. We accept certain Medicaid programs and Medicare Advantage plans. If you are unsure if we will take your insurance, you can get in touch with us to inquire.
Home Help for Seniors in Charleston
We offer excellent assistance to older adults who need help around the house. We provide help with day-to-day chores such as:
- Meal planning and cooking
- Light housekeeping
- Laundry
- Ambulation assistance
- Toileting
- Bathing
- Grooming
- Dressing
We want our clients to have as much joy as possible, even if this requires doing something irregular or a location-specific one-off. For example, something as simple as bringing ice cream as a surprise can do wonders for a client’s mood.
Respite Care
Burnout can affect the quality of care that you can provide to your loved one as the primary caregiver. If you look after yourself properly, you will be able to offer the care your loved one needs. That means primary caregivers also need time to deal with their own responsibilities.
For these reasons, we offer respite care in Charleston. These respite services can be for when you just need an afternoon to attend a doctor’s appointment or when you want to have a few days for a vacation. Our respite caregivers can be there regularly so that you can continue giving your loved one the care they need.
Hygiene Assistance
Personal cleanliness is vital to maintaining mental and physical health for the long term. Due to aging or other factors, limited mobility can make hygiene and grooming more challenging. Our family caregivers can assist clients with appearance maintenance, personal grooming, oral care, assisted bathing and toileting to ensure they can look and feel their best while maintaining dignity.
Daily Living Assistance
We offer clients self-administered medication assistance. We cannot administer medications ourselves because we aren’t a skilled care agency, we cannot administer medications ourselves. However, we can provide reminders and help manage medication schedules to ensure client safety.
Safety is a key part of keeping home as a safe space where people can feel comfortable. While we can’t prevent falls entirely, we can provide secure transfer and ambulation support to mitigate the risks in the home that could contribute to a fall. We will assess the home to identify risks and give clients canes and walkers to assist in safe transfers. We provide ongoing assessments as well to ensure the home remains secure and comfortable.
Transportation Services
We see travel as an important part of remaining autonomous for our clients. Our transportation services make life more convenient and work to keep people in the world. Our accompanying transport service lets clients visit friends, go to social events, run errands and attend medical appointments.
Our caregivers can also accompany clients to medical appointments to ensure their safety and comfort, take notes if necessary, and help them back into the car.
Social Companionship and Assistance
Our Charleston companionship services help our clients maintain social connections regularly. Loneliness and social isolation are common among less mobile and older adults. Maintaining social connections as we age has multiple mental and physical health benefits. One of our caregivers’ duties is to provide companionship to clients, which can alleviate loneliness and provide a constant source of support. Some of the activities you or your loved one can participate in are:
- Baking
- Gardening
- Art therapy
- Music
- Games
- Walking
- Watching movies
- Eating meals together
These activities depend on our client’s interests, abilities and limitations. Even the simple act of having a conversation and sharing experiences is an excellent way to fulfill many people’s need for socializing. The caregiver and client can form strong bonds, enhancing their overall quality of life.
Why Choose Village Caregiving?
Choosing us means choosing compassionate and professional support for you and your family throughout the care process. At its heart, caregiving is all about people. It’s essential to consider the family when looking at in-home care and how to make it as easy as possible for everybody involved.
Our caregivers are all hired from the local community of that location. We find that this fosters a deeper bond with clients, and gives them much to discuss. We look for people who are naturally compassionate and empathetic and who have the necessary care skills that we can then upgrade with our ongoing training.
We provide the reliable, warmhearted care that everybody deserves. We are an extremely popular workplace because of the benefits we provide our employees and the work-inclusive and friendly work environment we work hard to foster in all our locations.
An important factor that differentiates us from other care services is that we say yes when others say no. If it’s safe and it improves our client’s experience, we will try to provide it. Small surprises with their favorite food or showing them things they may find interesting all help solidify the bond between caregiver and client.
