For Elmhurst Families, the Details Are What Matter Most
We Treat Home Care in Elmhurst Like a Relationship, Not a Transaction
We're selective about who joins our team, not just background checks, but genuine empathy and a real willingness to show up fully for another person. Anything less doesn't make it past the interview stage.
Our name comes from 1776, the year independence was declared, and independence is still the whole point. Every plan is designed to help your loved one stay in charge of their own days for as long as safely possible.
What Makes 1776 Different
You’ll feel it in the small things — a caregiver who truly fits, a nurse who stays involved, and the comfort of always knowing who’s caring for your loved one. It’s the kind of care families come to rely on, whether it’s a few hours a week or around-the-clock support.
Types of Care
What Do Our Clients Say
What Staying Home Really Means for Elmhurst Seniors
Loneliness affects health just as much as any physical condition, which is something we take seriously with every client we serve. A caregiver isn't just there to help with chores, they're there to notice when something feels off, to share a conversation over coffee, and to be a steady, familiar presence during an ordinary Tuesday afternoon. Every ninety days, a care manager also completes a required in person visit to reassess the plan and make adjustments as needed.
Paying for care is often just as stressful as arranging it, so our team spends time walking families through every option, private pay, long term care insurance, veteran's benefits, even a reverse mortgage for homeowners who qualify. If you're weighing home care in Elmhurst against other choices, we'd rather give you honest information upfront than have you guess. A short conversation with one of our care managers can usually answer most of your questions the same day.
