What Our Clients Are Saying...

"I was struggling at home but I didn't want to admit it. I finally decided to sign up for homecare services with ABC and I am so glad I did. It has taken so much pressure off of me and my family who tries to help as much as they can."

Exciting news from ABC
Introducing ABC Home Healthcare Professionals' 2023 Video Series
ABC Home Healthcare Professionals is committed to life at home as well as sharing information and resources with clients, clients' families, friends and the community as a whole.

Tune in to our *BRAND NEW* video series where we will feature guest speakers monthly speaking about a variety of helpful topics such as estate planning, paying for care, what resources are available to consumers and how to access these resources etc. Videos will be posted on our social media pages (Facebook & Instagram) as well as our YouTube channel so check frequently for updates!
We know that navigating the world of elder care can be a challenge but it doesn't have to be and we can help!

ABC Goes "Red" for Women
Friday, February 3rd is National Wear Red Day or, as many know it, "Go Red for Women" Day!

Some people are shocked to find out that women are more susceptible to cardiovascular diseases than men. According to goredforwomen.org, "more than 1 in 3 women are living with some form of cardiovascular disease" and these diseases "claim the life of a woman about every 80 seconds." These are staggering statistics but the good news is that 80% of cardiovascular diseases can be prevented!

To join in the nationwide effort to spread awareness of heart disease in women, we at ABC "go red for women!"
Make Heart-Healthy Living a Priority
To live a healthy life, one must adopt a healthy lifestyle. People usually get intimidated by the amount of effort they think they need to put in to incorporate healthy habits but making healthy choices is easier than you think!

Put your heart first and make today the first day of your journey toward living a healthier happier life!

Services, Celebrations and More!

Another Successful Fundraising Event:
Mystic Valley Elder Services' 14th Annual Bellyful of Laughs

ABC Home Healthcare Professionals was once again proud to be the presenting sponsor for MVES' Bellyful of Laughs which is one of the organization's most prominent fundraising events- raising money for critical community programs that support elders such as Meals on Wheels and many others.

THANK YOU to caregivers everywhere, especially our ABC caregivers!
Celebrating ABC's Amazing Caregivers on National Caregivers' Day
Friday, February 17th is National Caregivers' Day, a day to recognize the selflessness and dedication of personal and professional caregivers throughout the country.

On this day and every day, we want to let our incredible ABC caregivers know how much we appreciate them and all that they do to care for seniors in their communities who need their help most. Being a caregiver isn't an easy job but our aides always pour their whole heart into the care they provide to our clients.
