The assessment happens at home
Our nurse walks the house — stair rails, bathroom clearance, lighting, medication storage, what the person can still do alone and wants to keep doing. The plan is written in the room, with the family present.
In-home supportive care across Springfield and Fairfax County — a single nurse-written plan, carried by a small team, from the first assessment to whatever comes next.
Every stage is written down and handed forward, so nobody in the household has to keep explaining the same history.
Insured, background-checked, trained on transfers, infection control and dementia care.
A registered nurse writes and reviews every plan on a set schedule.

We introduce the assigned caregiver before any shift begins. Language, temperament and routine matter as much as certification, and if the fit is wrong we change it without a debate.
What was eaten, what was taken, how the walking looked, what changed. The next caregiver reads it, the nurse reviews it, and family out of state can read it too.
After a week the real routine has revealed itself, so hours and tasks are adjusted. It happens again after any fall, hospital stay or new prescription — not at renewal time.
Reviews from households across Fairfax County over the past year.
My mother stopped apologising for needing help. That was the week I knew it was working.
The note after every shift meant I could stop calling three times a day from Ohio.
They rewrote the plan the day after Dad's fall. No forms, no waiting for a review date.
Usually within 48 hours of the home assessment, and often same-day for a hospital discharge when the planner gives us notice.
One hour. A safe shower shouldn't require buying an entire afternoon of care.
A small assigned team per household, introduced before the first shift. If the fit is wrong, we reassign.
Private pay, long-term care insurance and Virginia Medicaid waiver programs. We'll say plainly on the first call which applies.
Springfield, Burke, Annandale, West Falls Church, Alexandria and roughly twelve miles out.
The nurse rewrites the plan — after a fall, a hospital stay, or a new prescription. Not at renewal time.
Tell us what a hard day looks like right now. A care manager calls back the same business day.
Twenty minutes on the phone is usually enough to tell you what level of care is needed — or whether you need us at all.
