A registered nurse assesses the home and writes the plan. A clinician, not a scheduler, decides what care looks like.
Employed, screened and insured by us, with background checks and training to a national standard. Not a listings site.
The office picks up at any hour, including weekends. The same people, never a call center in another state.
A registered nurse owns this business and stays involved in it. You will deal with the people whose name is on the door.
We bill long-term care insurers directly and handle the claim paperwork, so you are not paying up front and chasing a reimbursement.

Calm, structured care from a plan written by a registered nurse, with caregivers trained for dementia who hold the same routine week to week, and a team on call around the clock.
We run this agency ourselves. Every client gets our direct numbers, and we answer.
Owner and Clinical Director
Registered nurse. Former Neuro ICU nurse and hospital charge nurse.
I have seen firsthand, through my nursing career and my father's recovery after a refinery accident, how much families depend on great caregivers. We will give you the same care I once gave my father.Meet Andrew →
CEO and Owner
MBA, Northwestern University. Former Principal at BCG.
I have spent my career helping organizations perform better. There are few places where doing things better matters more than senior care. I chose this work because someday it will be my parents, and yours. I run it the way I would want it run for my own mother.Meet Serhat →
The person who assesses your parent, writes the plan and changes it when something changes. You will know their name and they will know yours.
Clinical Director
Sets the clinical standard every care plan is written to, and is the escalation point when a client's health changes.
Care Manager, nursing and clinical oversight
Carries out the assessment in your home, writes the Plan of Care, and revisits it when something changes. A registered nurse, not a coordinator with a checklist.
Care Manager and Administrator
Runs the office and owns the relationship with your family. One of two people who answer the phone after hours, so an 11pm call reaches somebody who already knows the case.
We recruit people already working in the field, employ them properly, and keep them. A caregiver who is supported and paid well is a caregiver who is still there in month six, which is the only quality measure a family actually feels.
Home watch is top tier care. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to care for my family.
Our caregiver has been extremely reliable, punctual and caring.
Homewatch Caregivers go above and beyond the call of duty. We really appreciate thier help!!
Anyone can list tasks. What matters is what those tasks add up to: dignity, safety, and a house that still feels like home.
Your parent starts each day clean, dressed, and themselves. (Bathing, dressing, grooming, personal care.)
Favorite foods, eaten properly, so nutrition holds and decline slows. (Meal planning, shopping, cooking, sitting down to eat together.)
Caregivers prompt scheduled doses, write down what was taken and what was not, and report anything off, a refused dose, new confusion, a side effect, to the care manager, who calls the family and the physician. (Reminders and documentation, never administration.)
Moving safely around a house they have lived in for thirty years, instead of being afraid of it. (Transfers, walking, bathroom safety, clearing trip hazards.)
Driven to the doctor, the pharmacy and the grocery store, so they keep deciding where they go. (Transportation, waiting through the appointment, carrying it in.)
A familiar face and a real conversation woven into the day, not a stranger on a rota. (Companionship, walks, cards, church, being in the house.)
You choose the hours and the tasks. Most families start with two or three mornings a week, and the minimum is four hours a visit with no minimum number of days. There is also respite for a family caregiver, 24-hour and overnight cover, dementia and Alzheimer’s care and care after a hospital stay. If you are not yet sure which of these a parent needs, compare the four kinds of senior care.
This is non-medical care. A caregiver can remind someone to take medication but cannot administer it, give injections or change a dressing. If that is what is needed, say so on the call and we will point you to the right kind of provider.
A discharge cannot wait. Tell us while it is still being planned and care usually starts within 24 hours, with a caregiver we have matched rather than whoever was free.
Post-hospital care →Missed medications, a quieter parent, mail piling up. It may not be a crisis yet, and that is exactly the right time to talk.
How it works →You have paid premiums for years. We will read the policy, explain what it actually covers, and help you plan. No need to start care to start the conversation, and when you are ready we bill the carrier directly.
Free policy review →That is the normal starting point. Describe the week and a care manager will tell you what would actually help, including if that is less than you think.

Or have a care manager call you
Tell us where to reach you and roughly what is needed. A care manager calls, not a sales line.
It is called assignment of benefits. We bill the carrier, handle the paperwork, and you pay nothing up front. Almost no other Atlanta agency does this.

This office is credentialed through VA Community Care, so where the VA approves Homemaker and Home Health Aide hours it pays us directly. Respite care and Aid and Attendance are two further routes, and most families have never been told about any of them.
Someone from this office answers 24 hours a day, weekends included. The same people every time, so you are not explaining your parent’s situation from the beginning to a stranger who has your file open for the first time.

The same body that accredits hospitals. It means an outside surveyor has examined how this office hires, trains, supervises and documents care, and held it to a published national standard.

For an eligible veteran, yes. That is what the VA's Homemaker and Home Health Aide program is for, and respite care is a second route. Aid and Attendance is a third and works differently: it pays the household a higher pension that can be spent on care. Only the VA decides eligibility, but we can tell you which of the three to apply for and complete our part of the paperwork.
No, not for ongoing help with bathing, dressing, meals or housekeeping. Medicare covers short, intermittent skilled home health after a qualifying event, which is a different service. A Medicare Advantage plan sometimes includes a small in-home support benefit, so bring the plan details to the call and we will look.
No. The service is non-medical in-home care, which is what Georgia licenses as a Private Home Care Provider. What is different is who runs it: Andrew Harris, RN is President and Owner, so the assessment behind your care plan is done with a clinician's eye for medications and fall risk. Anything needing a licensed clinician in the house, such as wound care or injections, we refer out.
A caregiver can remind someone to take their medication but cannot administer it, give injections or change dressings. If that is what is needed, tell us on the call and we will point you to the right type of provider instead of taking the work.
Our minimum is four hours per visit, with no minimum number of days a week.
Usually within 24 hours, once the plan is agreed.
Hiring a caregiver does not replace family. It gives you the gift of being a daughter, son or spouse again, and being present for the moments that matter most.
About twenty minutes. What is happening, what is not getting done, who is doing it now, and how it would be paid for.
We come to the house, free. You get it in writing: which tasks, which days, which hours, and what it costs per week.
Care can usually start within 24 hours.
Caregivers are employed, screened and insured by us. You are not hiring a stranger off a listings site and becoming their employer.
Andrew Harris, RN is President and Owner, so the care plan asks about medications, falls and the discharge summary, not just how many hours you want.
Which tasks, which days, which hours, what it costs per week. No estimate that moves after the first invoice.
Most agencies tell you to call the VA. We tell you which program fits and hand you our part completed.
What help is needed, what it costs, and whether the VA covers part of it. Free, with nothing to sign.
