When seeking home care services for yourself or a loved one, feeling comfortable and supported is a priority. When Beth Bigham opened her first franchise of ComForCare Home Care in 2013, that was her goal. After receiving her master’s degree in business administration and working for several companies that had downsized, she was looking for a business to call her own and incorporate the strategies she’d learned over the years.
Since then, ComForCare has grown into a business providing exceptional home care by experienced, seasoned staff across the south Indianapolis region. In 2023 Bigham’s ComForCare was named franchise of the year and continues to strive to be the best.
ComForCare’s trained staff provide in-home support including assisting with meals, housekeeping, dressing, grooming, and activities of daily living like cooking and driving. They now have over 100 clients, most of which have two or more deficits in daily living skills. The staff at ComForCare all have experience with home care, from caregivers to their marketing coordinator. This allows them to grow their business, with clients at the center of all decision making. This sets ComForCare apart from other home care facilities. Bigham describes the “team-centered office” by explaining that “everyone is in the right seat.”
ComForCare also prioritizes continued training, increasing the expertise of the caregivers. All ComForCare caregivers have training in dementia care and support. Many of their staff also have specific training in fall risk and matters of balance, allowing them to support their clients on making the safest choices, and having measures in place to support their safety. ComForCare also provides remote patient monitoring, meaning you or your loved one has the care they need to live more independently.
ComForCare is also experienced and knowledgeable with insurance coverage.
When seeking services, ComForCare’s client liaisons are there to help throughout the two-step process. This includes the home care agreement and an assessment with a nurse. Depending on the pay source, these can be done as soon as the same day the initial call is made to ComForCare.
In addition to providing best-in-class support, ComForCare prioritizes the happiness of clients and is always looking for new ways to bring joy into the lives of those they serve. In mid-September, Bigham worked with a friend to put on a pony party for clients and caregivers. She says “caring for them is the priority, but we also want to bring them joy.”
ComForCare opened the doors to their Franklin office on September 1, and Bigham is looking forward to providing services to a greater area of southern Indianapolis. “We are trying to serve the public the best way we know how, and be closer to them,” she says.
Bigham’s goal is to continue to serve new areas, as they have caregivers that come from many areas. “There are a number of seniors that still need our help,” she notes.
ComForCare is ready to provide its established and professional home care to residents in Johnson County and beyond. Reach out and let their trained client liaison answer all your questions.
