Absolute Homecare
Absolute Homecare
Absolute Homecare is a homecare agency serving Portage, Michigan and surrounding areas. Homecare agencies provide non-medical personal care services that allow individuals to remain safely in their homes while receiving assistance with daily activities.
Services provided by homecare agencies typically include personal care assistance (bathing, dressing, grooming), companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping, medication reminders, transportation to appointments, and respite care for family caregivers.
Michigan does not require state licensure for non-medical homecare agencies, though agencies are generally expected to comply with local business licensing requirements and employment laws. Families should verify that caregivers have appropriate background checks and that the agency carries liability insurance.
Payment Options: In Michigan, Medicaid may help pay for homecare services through programs like MI Choice Waiver. These Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers help eligible individuals receive care at home instead of in an institutional setting. Contact Michigan Department of Health and Human Services or visit https://www.michigan.gov/mdhhs/assistance-programs/medicaid/long-term-care to learn about eligibility and how to apply.
When selecting a homecare agency, consider factors such as caregiver screening procedures, training requirements, supervision practices, and the agency's responsiveness to client needs and concerns. Visit Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs for more information about homecare services in Michigan.
Licensing requirements and regulations may change. We recommend verifying current requirements directly with your state's licensing agency.

I was very pleased with Absolute Homecare! I was able to get a caregiver for my mom and brother with disabilities on short notice (2 days). Their caregiver was truly a godsend with such a sweet disposition. It was a relief to be able to go away for several hours and not have to worry about my loved ones.
I have a loved one who is under care through Absolute. She has been well taken care of for over 5 years now. The people we have invited into our home have been nice and professional. If there is ever an issue the office deals with it so my loved one doesn't feel uncomfortable.I especially am thankful that if someone's calls off(for illness or whatever) they always find a way to cover the shift(sometimes even sending in office staff). I've enjoyed the experiance so much that 3 years ago I actually became their employee as well. I have had no issues with them. I have dealt with other agencies that would not get all the hours covered and I had to fill in (I'm talking over 50/week one summer) I felt stranded. I have never had that feeling trusting my loved one with Absolute! Thanks Ladies!
Our family would like to thank Absolute Homecare for the wonderful care they gave our mother, Dagmar Berdan. They were very flexible and always there when we needed them. We used their services from 9/16 through 5/17. At that time Mom needed to change to hospice care. Thank you again for always helping when we called.
While I haven't had the need to use Absolute Home Services I have heard so may great things about them. When the time comes they will be my first call.
my family used absolute for my grandmas care. it was important to us that we keep my grandmother LaVae Mendham at home and not put her in nursing home. absolute was wonderful group to work with. thank you!
