Our social workers, nurses, occupational therapists, schedulers and certified aides are skilled in providing in-home care for seniors and adults with disabilities who need help managing their daily routines.
Thank you for the many pieces of wonderful and safe equipment that Safe at Home gave us. Your program was OUR LAST RESORT before putting mom in a nursing facility where she did not want to go. Mom delights in the equipment, especially the chair lift and recliner---she is still intrigued by the remote control.

Marla Lahat, MSW, LICSW, is the Executive Director of Home Care Partners. Prior to becoming Executive Director in 1999, Marla developed and managed the Alzheimer's home care programs at Home Care Partners since 1986. She has published articles and presented seminars on working with clients with Alzheimer's disease, caregiving and other home care topics.
Home Care Partners hires certified home health aides and in Maryland and Virginia, certified nurse assistants. We also employ social work and nurse case managers, schedulers, and administrative staff. Arnetta came to Home Care Partners, entered a training class that was just starting and was hired after she got her certification.
Making a difference was what motivated Stacie Short to enroll in Home Care Partners Training Institute to earn her certification as a home care aide. Stacie's son was in a terrible accident which left him a paraplegic. After living through the difficulties of arranging appropriate care for him, Stacie wanted to be able to help others who really needed care.
