Navigating Home Care Options in Bellevue

A tailored approach to home care means that Bellevue seniors can thrive at home, even as their needs change. While aging in place may be a common goal, the care needed to achieve it differs for everyone. That’s why working with a home care agency’s team of experts to build a dynamic home care plan is crucial to staying at home long-term. As needs change — from companionship a few times a week, to daily support with dressing, bathing, and meal preparation, to around-the-clock assistance — professional caregivers can provide older adults with ongoing care.

From support a few hours a day to around-the-clock care, our caregivers are there to help clients find joy at home. Our goal is to pair our best-in-class caregivers with clients based on their needs and personalities so we can achieve our mission of delivering the highest-quality home care possible.
Senior Care that Goes Beyond
What sets us apart? Our people. With TheKey, you’ll get a dedicated team of home care experts to build a personalized care plan. Each plan is informed by our years of experience delivering over a million hours of care to older adults.
Our Balanced Care Method™emphasizes a healthy mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach focuses on nutrition, mental health, and overall wellness — which enhances quality of life.

The method originated by studying the elders of Okinawa, Japan, where residents routinely live to be over 100 years old, enjoying good health and purpose. Inspired by this, we’ve made it our mission to inspire joy every day.

Behind every professional caregiver is our full-time Care Team of experts, providing ongoing guidance to our caregivers — and support to you and your family.
Our caregivers are thoroughly vetted, background checked, and trained to provide personalized, empathetic care — in the comfort of home.
We take the time to select just the right caregiver for your needs. If you’re not satisfied with them for any reason, we’ll select someone else — because we know a personal connection matters.
Our Scientific Advisory Board includes a globally renowned, diverse group of specialists in dementia, aging, and Alzheimer’s disease.

Dedicated to state-of-the-art research and clinical standards, they offer invaluable insights into assessment, treatment, the role of mental health, and more.

Types of Home Care We Offer
The key to your peace of mind starts here: Learn about our proven, expert home care, from help a few hours a day to 24/7 support — all designed to make aging easier, in the comfort of home.
Home Care Service & Companion Care
Caregivers play a major role in bringing joy and purpose through engaging activities and fostering social connections.

This alleviates feelings of loneliness — which can be detrimental to both physical and mental health — and makes a positive difference in overall quality of life.

From part-time care to 24/7 support, we’ll design a personalized Care Plan.
In-Home Care & Memory Care
Our in-home care providers are trained to provide extensive, empathetic support for cognitive decline, from mild memory problems to advanced dementia.

We’ll be there to help with medication reminders, grocery shopping and meal prep, transportation and errands, light housekeeping, hobbies and passions, and personal care and hygiene.

And most importantly, we provide cognitive engagement and companionship.
Specialized Care Services
We have extensive experience supporting specific medical conditions and unique needs. These may include heart conditions, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, post-stroke care and end-of-life care.

Our goal is to provide comfort, companionship, and safety in a familiar, comfortable environment.
Respite Care
When caring for an older loved one, it’s anything but selfish to make time to care for yourself. In fact, it’s essential for your mental health and overall well-being.

Our caregivers are trained to provide supportive senior care so you can relax and recharge, knowing that your loved one is safe. When it comes to home care, you don’t have to do it all alone — we’re here to help whenever you need us.
Our dedicated team includes professional caregivers with a wide range of focuses, skills, and credentials.

All our caregivers are employees, so we handle scheduling and payroll for you. That way you have one less thing to worry about and can focus on spending your time in the ways that matter to you.
Navigating the Home Care Discussion

Starting the conversation with a loved one about home care can be challenging. Our checklist will help you approach the topic in an effective, empathetic way.

What’s the best home care?
The best home care is provided by reliable, professional caregivers who are trained and backed by a home care agency that’s insured, providing oversight, care guidance, and back-up caregivers as needed.
How do I find the best caregiver for my loved one?
The best caregiver is an experienced professional who has the training and skills to support your loved one’s care needs.

It’s also important to find a caregiver who’s extremely reliable, —has back-up if necessary, —and is a good fit in terms of personality and shared interests.
Is home care better than moving to assisted living?
Nine out of ten older adults would prefer to live independently in the home they know and love rather than moving to a facility or assisted living community. With the right level of support, most people can continue to live safely and comfortably at home even as they age with a progressive illness or medical condition.
How much does home care cost?
Home care is typically billed by the hour, so the cost depends on the number of care hours per week and can vary slightly by region. Most families pay out-of-pocket for their care or use long-term care insurance.
Is a home care agency better than hiring a private caregiver?
If you value safety, security, and reliability, yes. A quality home care agency is insured and also manages the performance and scheduling of its caregivers, handles billing and payroll, and has back-up caregivers to fill in when needed. With a private hire caregiver, you’re responsible for setting up payroll and withholding taxes, caregiver vetting and background checks, and purchasing sufficient liability insurance to cover any accidents or injuries in the home.
