HOME CARE IN MONTICELLO

Local, Compassionate Care for Monticello Families

Jefferson County families tend to call us when the balance quietly tips: a parent who has lived in the same house for forty years is now nervous on the stairs, forgetting to eat lunch, or turning down invitations they used to love. Often a son or daughter in Tallahassee has been making the trip down US-90 every few days and knows it cannot last forever.

For your loved one, home care means keeping the small-town life they treasure: walks around Courthouse Circle, a show at the Perkins Opera House, the shaded streets of the historic district, and the Watermelon Festival every June. Our caregivers take on the hard parts of the day so the rest of it stays theirs.

Caregivers provide non-medical support: bathing and dressing, meals, medication reminders, light housekeeping, companionship, and rides to appointments in Monticello and Tallahassee. Every care plan follows your loved one’s routine and adjusts as needs change.

Legacy Homecare Group is licensed by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA License #299995954), bonded and insured. Our Tallahassee office is about 25 miles west of Monticello, so a Certified Senior Care Manager is close by when plans need to change.

1 Business Day

A Certified Senior Care Manager follows up within one business day to answer your questions, learn about your loved one's needs, and help you determine the right level of care.

When Mom Says She's Fine

Many parents resist help at first. We often start small, with a friendly visit, a ride to the store or help with one routine, so care feels like companionship and your loved one stays in charge of their own day.

When You Live Out of Town

If you are managing a parent’s care from another city or another state, your care manager keeps you updated by phone, text or email, so you always know how they are doing.

When It's a Stranger in the House

Every caregiver is screened and trained before their first visit, and we match personality as carefully as skills. Your family reviews the care plan before care begins, and we listen if the fit is not right.

When Needs Change

Care can grow from a few hours a week to overnight or 24-hour support as your loved one’s health changes, with the same team that already knows them.
