What Is Personal / Attendant Care?

Personal or attendant care is non-medical home care Indianapolis families use when someone needs hands-on help with daily living tasks, also called activities of daily living (ADLs).

This support is often a fit for:

  • Seniors who want to age in place with dignity

  • Adults recovering after a hospital stay or rehab who need temporary help at home

  • Adults with disabilities (18+) who want consistent, respectful assistance

  • Family caregivers who need reliable relief, structure, and support
