Care at home professionals help people recover, manage long-term illness, and stay connected to the life they love.
For millions of Americans, home is more than a place. It's where dignity is preserved, independence is supported, and meaningful moments with loved ones continue.
From home health and hospice to personal care and Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS), care at home helps people live with greater comfort, confidence, and connection.
The real story of care at home is told by the people who experience it every day.
Across the country, individuals receiving care, their families, and their caregivers rely on skilled professionals who help with recovery, manage complex conditions, navigate serious illness, and remain connected to the people and places that matter most.
Whether you’re planning ahead, supporting a loved one, or navigating a serious illness, understanding your options can make decisions feel more manageable. These decisions often come during moments of uncertainty, when families are trying to do what’s right without clear guidance.
Explore trusted information about care at home, learn about available services, and find providers who can help you take the next step with confidence.
Patients and families deserve confidence in the care they receive at home.
While instances of fraud and abuse can put patients at risk and undermine trust, they do not reflect the vast majority of providers delivering compassionate, skilled care every day.
The Alliance is working to protect patients, strengthen trust in care at home, and ensure families can access the support they need by focusing on four priorities:
Supporting strong oversight that helps identify and remove bad actors while protecting access to trusted care providers.
Working to ensure older adults, people with disabilities, and individuals with serious illness can continue receiving care where they are most comfortable.
Supporting standards and accountability measures that help patients and families receive safe, high-quality care from qualified professionals.
Helping ensure patients can access the skilled nurses, aides, therapists, and clinicians they depend on every day.
Early this morning, a home health nurse arrived at a patient's home to help manage a complex chronic condition.
Tonight, a hospice nurse will provide comfort, guidance, and support to a family navigating one of life's most difficult moments.
Tomorrow, a home care aide will assist with daily activities, prepare meals, and help a family caregiver carry the responsibilities of care.
Millions of Americans depend on care at home to maintain their health, independence, and quality of life.
