Overview of Service

Happier at Home's goal is to help seniors remain independent in their own home or place of residence. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of care to seniors, and is reflected in our motto: “Giving Compassion, Respect, and Independence.” We provide non-medical, in-home care. Our trained caregivers can assist with errands, laundry and light housekeeping, medical appointments, attending social events, bathing set up and monitoring, dressing and grooming and assistance with what the client’s needs are. We pride ourselves on matching clients with bonded and insured caregivers. We provide care from one hour to 24 hours each day. Our caregivers are thoroughly screened with criminal background checks, pre-employment drug screening, tuberculosis testing, motor vehicle reports and professional and personal reference checks to assure that our staff is of the highest morals and character. We also have partnered with Alzheimer’s Association in Rochester, which provides a number of our caregivers with qualification as Certified Dementia Care Providers.

Please know that the Community Resource Finder is purely an informational tool. This means that the Alzheimer’s Association and AARP do not vet, evaluate, recommend or endorse any particular provider. Providers are solely responsible for keeping their information current. Although the data is expected to be reliable, users are advised to verify it independently, as it can change, and it is not guaranteed to be complete and accurate. Visit our tips section for guidance on evaluating and choosing options that best suit your needs.

The Community Resource Finder is powered by HealthlinkDimensions, which aggregates and maintains basic information about licensed senior service providers in the U.S. from several hundred sources at the federal, state, and local levels as well as through senior service membership organizations. Basic information about non-licensed providers is collected from private sources. Information is collected when providers complete a free Provider Profile, outlining the care and services they offer. HealthlinkDimensions is solely responsible for this activity. Additionally, program information from the Alzheimer’s Association and AARP is compiled.
