Firstlight Home Care
Firstlight Home Care
Firstlight Home Care is a homecare agency serving Omaha, Nebraska 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.
In Nebraska, homecare agencies are typically regulated by the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services and generally must maintain a Home Care, Health, and Supportive Services Agency License. Nebraska requires licensure for home care agencies.
Payment Options: In Nebraska, Medicaid may help pay for homecare services through programs like Aged and Disabled Waiver. These Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers help eligible individuals receive care at home instead of in an institutional setting. Contact Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services or visit https://dhhs.ne.gov/Pages/Medicaid-Long-Term-Care.aspx 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 Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services for more information about homecare services in Nebraska.
Licensing requirements and regulations may change. We recommend verifying current requirements directly with your state's licensing agency.

Recieved one day of respite care and was told the person they sent wouldn't be coming back due to her fear of snakes (despite never being asked if we had snakes in the initial interview) as well as comments being left about the cleanliness of our home. Additionally, I was never talked to about the issues and they never contacted me about sending out a different person to help, despite telling me they would do so when they called to let me know the lady was afraid of snakes. Unprofessional and unacceptable.
Our mother was in end stages of pancreatic cancer we were needing someone to help with cares as she became bed bound quickly. Stephanie & Jaye (the owner) responded to an e-mail on a Sunday, Stephanie called me Monday morning & was able to get care set up for that same day starting @ 7:00 that night. They were amazing from the office staff to the ladies who cared for our mother we can not say enough great things. For us being our mom was "faith filled" having a company that isn't afraid to have their staff say "God Bless" and treat a woman who isn't responding with amazing respect & kindness. Connie our last care giver knew the signs that mom was going to be passing soon & just let me know so that way we as a family could encircle the bed & be with mom as she took her last breath. Lydia, Amy, Connie are a few I met there were others & our family said EVERY single one of them was great at what they did. Thank you Jaye & Stephanie & all the staff for making this tough time much easier.
First light sent a wonderful caregiver to take care of my mom.When we had plans for the evening comma we will definitely be using their service again !
The staff has always been very helpful. My care giver is very dependable, always arrivals on time and completes the tasks in a timely manner. She's got a great personality and loves to visit with you. I definitely think it's a great service
First Light has been wonderful to work with, especially during the difficult time of COVID. Their caregivers are very professional and have been great in dealing with and caring for with my father with dementia.
