Comfort Home Care is a non-medical, in-home care service that provides compassionate physical and emotional care for seniors, those recovering from surgery, or those with disabilities.
Founder Cara Fitzgerald is passionate about providing help for senior citizens in their homes. Cara understands the importance of authentic caring, and pours her heart into each of her clients, going above and beyond to become more than just a caregiver. She is also a friend.
As her practice expands, Cara prioritizes finding team members who pass background checks with flying colors and who share her values and professional standards. Our team members are proud to work with elderly community members and treat them as if they were members of our own families. No matter what services you need, Comfort Home Care can give you peace of mind about the safety of your loved one.
From a young age, Cara Fitzgerald felt a special connection to seniors. Growing up, she cherished time spent with her grandmother listening to stories, helping in the kitchen, and sharing laughter. Those early experiences taught her that small gestures of kindness—bringing a glass of water, pulling up a sock, moving a cane closer—or offering a warm conversation could make an extraordinary difference in the lives of older adults.
That philosophy became the foundation of her life’s work. Over the years, Cara built meaningful relationships with countless seniors, shaping both her perspective and her passion.
Cara’s experiences and extensive background in the medical field led her to realize that there was a space in elder care that needed to be filled. There is a period of time between fully independent adulthood and when elderly citizens need around-the-clock assisted living, and there are limited resources for individuals living in this gap.
Family members may struggle wanting to put an elder in an assisted living facility or nursing home, so having an in-home caregiver can be a great alternative. Comfort Home Care can help provide safety, feeding, and companionship to elders in their safe space, keeping them at home for as long as possible.
The prospect of having a primarily independent individual in a nursing home is daunting for many families from a financial perspective, and a home health nurse is often a pricey option as well. Consequently, Cara founded Comfort Home Care, which offers care in the home without the overwhelming price tag. The services we provide include, but are not limited to, the following:
