Caring For Our Community, One Senior at a Time

Nobody plans for the moment care becomes necessary, and it rarely announces itself anyway. It shows up in a shower that feels risky, a pill organizer that keeps getting skipped, or a driveway that no longer gets shoveled. Caring Senior Service provides in-home care in Hixson so older adults can stay right where they are, with help for whatever has become difficult. We build every plan around the person, starting with their week, what they still handle themselves, and where support would do the most good. That can mean help around the house, regular company, or steady routines that make memory changes easier to manage.

Find the Right Care

Personal Care

Getting dressed and staying clean take real effort when balance is uncertain. Our Hixson caregivers take the frustration out of daily care, helping with bathing, dressing, moving around, and using the restroom, always at an unhurried pace.

Companion Care

A quiet house wears on a person over time, and the effects show up in appetite and energy long before anyone connects them to loneliness. Our caregivers keep seniors company with games, storytelling, and social activities that give the week its shape.

Specialty Care

Some conditions need care designed around them rather than adapted to them. Our Hixson in-home care assistance team works with seniors living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, COPD, and recovery from surgery or stroke, using predictable routines that limit confusion and improve safety at home.

Veterans Care

Consistency is a form of respect, particularly for those who served. Our veterans care program combines companionship with hands-on daily support for U.S. military veterans, so aging in place stays both safe and realistic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do your services include?

Aging at home goes best when the help is aimed at specific things. Our in-home care in Hixson takes on the tasks that have turned tiring or unsafe and leaves the rest of the day where it belongs. Every care plan comes from actual routines and preferences rather than a standard checklist.

COMPANIONSHIP: Long stretches alone affect mood, appetite, and overall health more than most families notice. Our Hixson caregivers arrive on a dependable schedule for games, storytelling, and other social activities that keep seniors connected.
RESPITE CARE: Caregiver burnout is a genuine risk, and pushing through without a break serves no one. We step in on a short-term or long-term basis so family caregivers can rest, work, or travel while care continues at home.
PERSONAL CARE: Hygiene routines turn stressful when footing is unreliable. Our Hixson senior help team assists with bathing, dressing, toileting, and getting around the house, protecting privacy and reducing the risk of a fall.
MEAL PREPARATION: Cooking falls off when energy dips or the kitchen begins to feel unsafe, and good food is exactly what sustains strength. Our caregivers prepare fresh, healthy meals at home around dietary needs and personal tastes.
MEDICATION REMINDERS: Many seniors take several prescription and over-the-counter medications, and tracking them gets harder as memory shifts. Our caregivers help clients stay on schedule with easy, consistent reminders.
TRANSPORTATION: Giving up the car should not shrink someone’s world. Our senior transportation services provide safe rides around town for medical appointments, errands, and anywhere else clients want to go.
ERRAND SERVICE: One round of stops can consume an entire day’s energy. Whenever seniors need to pick something up or drop something off, we take care of it, so routine errands stop piling up.
LIGHT HOUSEKEEPING: A cluttered home creates real trip and fall hazards, and chores accumulate fast when mobility changes. Our Hixson home care assistance team keeps things clean and comfortable with laundry, dishes, dusting, and tidying.
HOME SAFETY ASSESSMENT: A poorly lit stairway or a rug with a curled edge stays invisible until it causes an injury. Our 43-point home safety assessment identifies potential hazards throughout the house and recommends practical fixes.
FAMILY PORTAL: Following a loved one’s care should not require a nightly phone call. Each client receives a tablet with easy access to our Family Portal, where families can check schedules, share documents, and message our team directly.

In what areas are your services available?

Contact our office to find out if we provide service in your area.

How much does the service cost?

We charge one flat hourly rate no matter which services are involved, which keeps budgeting simple and predictable. After an initial conversation, our team completes a full in-home assessment with you and your loved one. That assessment determines how many care hours are needed to keep daily life safe, comfortable, and manageable at home.

Does insurance cover the cost of your services?

If you’re looking for home care assistance, you have a few options. Long-term care insurance or the VA’s Aid and Attendance program can cover our services. Medicaid may cover some services, but currently only some of our offices accept it. Major medical insurance providers do not cover in-home care assistance. For those eligible for the VA benefit, we’re here to help with the prequalification process. Medicare’s GUIDE Model may offer resources for individuals with dementia and their family caregivers. Ask us for details.

  Ivan and his team have been so good to our aging clients. They treat them with kindness and dignity. We communicate with them on every shift and each caregiver gives us unique and insightful updates. Ivan and the other managers always visit our client in person to make sure they feel good about the care they are getting. They have been willing to show up even for an emergency room supervision with only hours heads up. They’re always willing to go above and beyond. I highly recommend caring Senior Service.

  I highly recommend Caring Senior Services. I hesitated to hire caregivers to assist me with caring for my husband, and he was anxious about having caregivers. Unfortunately, it became a necessity. The owner, Ivan Widen, put us at ease when he met with us. The team worked to find caregivers who were a good match, listening and quickly responding to my input. I cannot say enough about the caregivers. They were wonderful! They were loving and caring, competent, and respectful of our home. They quickly became like family or friends. They not only cared for my husband, but I felt cared for as well. As a health professional, I know how difficult it is to find a caregiving agency whose caregivers are caring in addition to competently doing their job. Ivan and his team are in this for the right reason, to provide compassionate and professional care.

  I was referred to Caring Senior Service (CSS) through my husband's long term care insurance. The facility's owner, Ivan Widen, kindly met with me in my home to answer all my questions and share with me the many ways CSS could come alongside me in caring for my husband during this season of his life. After meeting and speaking with my husband, and Ivan's attention to details, he was careful to match him with a caregiver that was an excellent fit for him (and me)! This was such a blessing as we didn't have to wade through a series of caregivers which can be very frustrating for someone with dementia. We were also introduced to a couple of other caregivers whom we got to know in the event his primary caregiver needed be out. They were all compassionate, dependable, and responsive to his needs. They treat him as though he were a member of their own family. Needless to say, this gives me so much peace knowing my guy is in good hands in their care!

  My father deteriorated quickly and I needed 24/7 assistance in addition to hospice care. Ivan was quick to answer my call and schedule a subsequent appointment. He and his team immediately won me over, but more importantly,  my dad.
The team was respectful, thoughtful and professional. They went above and beyond my expectations and made my dads last few weeks here as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
The team essentially became extended family and allowed my dad to stay in his home which was extremely important to him.
Thank you Ivan and team for the wonderful care!

  We contacted Caring Senior Service in an emergency situation when our 91-year-old father required round-the-clock care after having multiple falls in a single day.  We spoke to Ivan Saturday evening and he arranged for a nurse to arrive at our dad’s house Sunday morning. From that point, Caring Senior Services coordinated all details related to 24-hour care which was important given that my sister and I live 2 hours away.  Throughout the process, they kept us informed of changes and issues.  Within a month, Ivan worked with us to facilitate our dad’s next transition to an Assisted Living facility.  We would definitely recommend Caring Senior Service for in-home care support.
