Choosing a home care provider is one of the most important decisions you can make for your loved one. Whether you’re caring for an aging parent or a family member recovering from surgery or illness, it’s essential to find the right fit — someone you can trust with their safety, health, and happiness.
At Agape United Home Care, we serve families throughout Mansfield, Ashland, Crawford, and West Cleveland, providing registered nurse-led in-home care that’s compassionate, reliable, and personalized.
If you’re not sure where to start, here’s your step-by-step guide to finding the right home care agency in Ohio.
🔍 Step 1: Look for RN-Owned or Clinically-Led Agencies
Agencies founded or led by registered nurses (like ours!) ensure your loved one receives care that meets clinical standards, not just checklists. This means better oversight, personalized care plans, and greater peace of mind.
📋 Step 2: Ask About Services
Every family has different needs. Make sure the agency provides services such as:
- Personal care (bathing, grooming, toileting)
- Meal preparation
- Medication reminders
- Light housekeeping
- Mobility assistance
- Companionship
At Agape United, we tailor care plans to match your family’s unique situation — from just a few hours a week to 24/7 care.
🏥 Step 3: Check Accepted Insurance and Payment Options
Ask if the agency accepts Ohio Medicaid PASSPORT Waiver — which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Also confirm if they offer private pay plans or other financial support.
👉 We accept both the Medicaid PASSPORT Waiver and private pay, and will walk you through every step.
📍 Step 4: Choose a Local, Community-Focused Agency
Agencies rooted in your community tend to offer more personal attention and faster response times.
Agape United proudly serves:
- Mansfield, OH
- Ashland County
- Crawford County
- West Cleveland and surrounding counties
We believe in building long-term relationships with our families — you’re never just a case number.
✅ Step 5: Read Reviews and Ask for References
Always check Google reviews and testimonials. A trustworthy agency should have happy clients who feel supported, respected, and well-informed.
Not sure what to ask? Here are a few questions to get started:
- How do you train your caregivers?
- What happens if a caregiver calls off?
- Can I reach someone after-hours?
- How often are care plans updated?
