Get Started!
At ComForCare, we provide exceptional home care services to individuals in the communities we serve. Our caregivers offer support that helps clients enjoy their golden years at home while keeping their independence and quality of life. Whether it’s a medication reminder, help with meal preparation, safety supervision, or companionship, we make it possible for your loved one to stay home and keep doing what they love.
Our goal is to help your elderly loved ones live safely and securely. Whether health concerns come from illness, injury, or aging, our personal home care packages and flexible scheduling help your loved one keep a sense of freedom, dignity, and connection with friends and family. Seniors who stay at home are often happier, healthier, and recover faster than those in assisted living facilities. Here’s what you can count on from us:
“What am I going to do when I grow up?”
John Hughes had this thought driving home from the job he’d held for over 23 years as a software developer. He was facing a second layoff in three years, and he knew he wanted something bigger for his life, something fulfilling where he could help others in a meaningful way.
Growing up in rural Oregon, John’s mother routinely volunteered with aging adults in the community, which instilled in him a passion for service at a young age. As she grew older, he was frustrated with the lack of options and resources available to her. When he opened this location, he wanted to keep others from feeling those same frustrations. Our team is empathetic with everyone we come in contact with because we’ve been where you are. We understand the challenges that come with aging, and we’ve dedicated ourselves to becoming a resource for our community.
One of our clients passed away at home, with family and their caregiver present. After the funeral home came, the family stepped out to visit a relative. While they were gone, the caregiver quietly stripped the hospital bed, washed and folded every linen, collapsed the bed, and set it on the porch for hospice to collect. No one asked. No one was paying for those hours. The family was so moved they called to thank John and asked about a bonus, and the caregiver had never even mentioned it.
“The caregiver didn’t want recognition or praise for stepping up; they just knew it was important to the family. Those are the people we routinely bring into our ComForCare family.”
When it comes to in-home care, you want a professional, qualified caregiver. We have a rigorous 10-step hiring process to select only the most qualified individuals. By the time a caregiver joins our team, they’ve undergone thorough screening, testing, and training, including verification of certifications, employment history, and references. We evaluate qualities such as integrity to make sure our clients receive care from professionals who are truly dedicated to their well-being.
Each caregiver completes a full skills orientation using a teach-back method: first we explain how to properly care for a client, then the caregiver demonstrates the skill back to us, for example, how to safely transfer a person in and out of a chair. We also train caregivers for client-specific needs and provide ongoing education. To make sure protocols are followed and clients are satisfied, we conduct unannounced quality-assurance calls and visits to clients’ homes.
Our caregivers are agency employees, not independent contractors, which means they are bonded and insured. We also manage payroll taxes, workers’ compensation, caregiver screening, and scheduling. If you hire privately or through an online registry, you become the employer and are responsible for these tasks. At ComForCare, we take care of all the details so families can spend more quality time with their aging loved ones.
Only ComForCare offers DementiaWise®, an evidence-based program of advanced staff training co-developed by dementia researcher Dr. Heather McKay and tested for efficacy by Duke University. Our office is DementiaWise®-certified, which means our caregivers understand the changes dementia brings and know which care methods and behavioral interventions actually help, for the person living with dementia and for the family beside them.
Our office has also earned certification in the Parkinson’s Pathway, a comprehensive program built around a rigorous four-pillar approach addressing both motor and non-motor symptoms. This proprietary training turns our staff into Informed Care Partners who deliver stage-specific care and, more importantly, protect quality of life at every stage.
Bathing, dressing, and eating keep a person healthy, but Meaningful Activities are what make a day worth waking up for. We work with clients and families to identify activities rooted in a person’s interests, hobbies, and remaining abilities, and we’ve found that engaged clients are far more willing to accept care. We also provide in-home safety evaluations that assess living conditions and known risk factors, and then recommend home modifications and lifestyle changes to help keep someone safer where they are.
Our office holds recognition as a Home Care Pulse Certified™ Trusted Provider and a Nationally Certified Readmissions Professional, a designation from the National Readmissions Prevention Collaborative given to locations with in-depth training in preventing hospital readmissions. We’re a proud financial contributor to the Alzheimer’s Association of Oregon, and we provide training and support to first responders who may encounter older adults living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.
We’ve also been named a Great Place to Work, and we’ve earned Best Provider, Best Employer, and Leadership awards in the Best of Home Care awards. We mention the employer awards on purpose: caregivers who feel supported stay longer, and consistency is one of the greatest gifts you can give an aging parent.
Our personalized approach is what sets us apart, and it starts with listening. Our Care Process begins with a thorough in-home consultation to identify a person’s specific needs and preferences. From there, we create a personalized plan, then continue to communicate with clients and family members, conduct reassessments, and adjust care to reflect a client’s changing needs. Our caregivers are available for a few hours a week up to 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and we’re available around the clock to answer questions.
Each office is independently owned and operated and is an equal opportunity employer.
