Trusted Professional Advocates with You Every Step of the Way

When you become a member of Friends Life Care, one of our Care Coordinators gets to know you and your needs on a personal level from the start, visiting you before you ever need care at home. You can trust that he or she will be there for any of your future health care needs, and will always work to protect your best interests.

Our team of Care Coordinators is comprised of highly trained professionals with years of health and wellness industry experience. Many hold degrees in such disciplines as nursing, social work, nutrition, or physical or occupational therapy. They take great pride in becoming your trusted advocate, able to anticipate your needs and resolve issues related to keeping your independence.

Exceptional Caregivers and Resources

Our Care Coordinators work with a large team of local caregivers. All Friends Life Care caregivers are screened using our exclusive Quality Credentialing Process™.  Providers submit to state and internal audits to ensure that we deliver exactly what we promise. Our Senior Director of Care Coordination works together with our Director of Care Coordination to identify and oversee this network of qualified caregivers. This means that you and your Care Coordinator know the right person is available at the right time.

Our Director of Wellness provides resources and information through our VigR® program initiative, which helps you maintain an independent life in your own home.

As a member of Friends Life Care, you will rest easy knowing you have a plan—and a team to support you at every stage of life.
