Our story begins, not surprisingly, at home. As the primary caregiver for her aging mother and father, our founder Andrea Cohen saw firsthand the difference that comfort, safety, and familiarity of home can make for older adults. She drew inspiration from personal experience and committed herself professionally to reimagine aging and make caring for seniors at home easier.
When it comes to in-home care, you have choices. You could hire a Caregiver on your own, use a placement agency or registry, or use an in-home-care agency like HouseWorks. Hiring on your own, however, comes with legal risks for you and your family. Unfortunately, many families don't find out about the legal risks and pitfalls of hiring on their own or using a placement agency until it's too late.
A lot has changed since we founded HouseWorks more than 20 years ago. But one thing remains the same: home is where older adults feel their safest and most comfortable. Simply put, aging at home helps seniors stay at the center of the life they love.
That's why our BetterCare at Home approach works-wrapping our clients and their families in a safety net of support as we guide them through every possible challenge aging at home can throw their way.We assign every client to a dedicated CareTeam. Families know just who to call if they have a question or need advice.

Our Caregivers get to know their clients so well they can spot the slightest change in mood, behavior, or health and anticipate their needs. To many, our Caregivers become like family. When we hire a caregiver, there's a factor we look for that can't be taught. We call it generosity of spirit. It's the innate ability of a person to share their gifts, talents, and happiness freely, without the expectation of something in return.
HouseWorks CareTeams wrap our clients in a safety net of support. These professional and skilled teams oversee every detail of their client's care plan, making sure each client has the resources they need to be safe, engaged and happy at home. They make certain our Caregivers deliver a higher standard of care, too.

Having Houseworks caregivers at my father's apartment have allowed him to live a normal life instead of having to move to a nursing home were we would not have had these past 2.5 years with him. He has caregivers 24 hours who keep him active, help him remember PT, get him daily activities in his building, watch shows and listen to his stories (and at 93 he has plenty of them), make sure he takes his medications, and accompany us when we take him to see his doctors. More importantly they are there and call family members whenever there is an emergency. The Houseworks caregivers and their supervisors

Roy gave us a great quote. He repaired the wood trim on our garage doors that a woodchuck decided to snack on. Beautiful job and we are super impressed. Great guy, very friendly. Juan cleaned up the driveway of any nails and debris. Roy also patched a section of the garage floor that was crumbling. Everything looks great!!

Houseworks deserves 10 stars...not five stars. The entire staff including George have been so kind and helpful in the loving care of my mother-in-law...and our entire family. Very professional workers helped with home care and the transition to specialized placement. They went "over and beyond" expectations and we can never thank them enough.
