Home care in
Simsbury, CT.
Simsbury runs from Hopmeadow Street out through Tariffville, Weatogue and West Simsbury, and which of those a family lives in shapes the care we bring.
Tariffville is the part of Simsbury most people underestimate. Its historic district still holds the small houses the Tariff Manufacturing Company built for carpet-mill workers, on streets like Elm and Red Hill Road, and tight stairs and small rooms are ordinary there. Weatogue, West Simsbury and Simsbury Center each read differently again. A caregiver plans bathing help and safe transfers around what the house actually allows, not around a standard checklist.
No hospital sits in Simsbury, so a discharge usually means the drive back from Hartford Hospital, from UConn John Dempsey Hospital in Farmington, or from Mount Sinai Rehabilitation Hospital. Closer to home, McLean Health Center on Great Pond Road and ARK Healthcare and Rehabilitation at Governor's House on Firetown Road both take short-term rehab stays, and older referral lists still call the second one Governor's House. We pick up at the front door, usually within 24 hours, on a 4-hour minimum. The work is non-medical: getting dressed in the morning, a safe shower, meals, the wash, errands, and company for the afternoon.
Getting a person out of the house is half of what we do here. The Simsbury Senior Center runs out of Eno Memorial Hall at 754 Hopmeadow Street and welcomes residents 50 and over, and a ride plus an hour of company there can change a whole week. The valley floor along Hopmeadow Street is flat, but the ground climbs east toward Talcott Mountain and west into West Simsbury, and Route 185 over the ridge is a winding two-lane road. We put winter slack into Simsbury shifts so a caregiver arrives before the hour rather than after it.
Getting to Simsbury
Simsbury Town Hall on Hopmeadow Street is a little under thirteen miles from our Park Street office, out Albany Avenue to Route 189 and over Talcott Mountain on Route 185. That ridge crossing is the piece we watch in winter, and we can come the longer way through Avon on Route 44 and north on Route 10 when it is bad.

Good questions
Questions from Simsbury families.
Will a caregiver still get here in bad weather?
It is a fair question in Simsbury. Route 185 climbs over Talcott Mountain on two lanes, so we build slack into Simsbury shifts and can approach through Avon on Route 44 and north on Route 10 instead. If a storm is coming we call you first rather than leaving you guessing. Request a free consultation on (860) 393-1055 and we will be straight about what we can promise.
How quickly can care start in Simsbury?
Often within 24 hours of your first call, and faster for a hospital discharge. We do a free in-home consultation and match a caregiver right away.
What does in-home care cost in Simsbury?
Cost depends on the hours and level of care. Most families pay privately; long-term care insurance, VA benefits and Medicaid can help. You get a clear quote on your first call.
Do you offer 24-hour and live-in care in Simsbury?
Yes. In Simsbury we provide everything from a few companionship hours a week to overnight, live-in and around-the-clock care, all from one dedicated caregiver.
Are your caregivers screened and insured?
Every caregiver is background-checked, bonded, insured and trained, and supervised by our Care Coordinator. If the match is not right, we re-match at no charge.
