Why Home Care Registries Are Having a Moment
When care becomes urgent, speed feels like the safest choice. But lasting care isn’t built on speed, it’s built on asking the right questions. The answers to these questions are why the home care registry model is on the rise. Families Need More Than What the System Can Currently Offer Families across the country are
Testimonials
Holistic HomeCare Associates could not have been a more supportive, efficient and responsive organization to work with when it came time to put together a team of caregivers to take care of my parents. They took the time to understand who my parents were and what they needed. They provided an excellent group of prospective candidates and helped with selection, scheduling, and the details of payroll. As a result, my parents are being looked after by a wonderful group of caring, well-trained and trustworthy caregivers, some of whom feel like family. I could not think more highly of Holistic HomeCare Associates and the people who run it. I’m not sure where my family would be without them.

The caregivers we sourced from Holistic HomeCare Associates transformed our Dad’s care. His male caregivers George and Ebs are very interactive and a wonderful match for him. Since they started working with him, he is more mobile and engaged and this team is a huge improvement over any other aides we had before. Our only regret is that we didn’t start working with your Holistic sooner!

My mom was highly resistant to home care until we were able to match her with an exceptional caregiver from Holistic HomeCare Associates was exceptional. After experiencing the companionship, skilled meal preparation, and kind care, my mom’s attitude changed. She now has a regularly scheduled caregiver who accompanies her on walks, to doctor visits, cooks fantastic dishes, and handles light-duty cleaning. I don’t think she would have been able to stay in the apartment without the help of Holistic.

Holistic HomeCare Associates have been providing exceptional round the clock care for my Mom for the past two years. The care team is compassionate, competent and the overall experience has been seamless. It’s been a great two years working with you!

One of my clients had an urgent need for a companion. Her mental health had recently deteriorated to the point where she could not safely be alone in her apartment. I called Holistic HomeCare Associates and within a matter of days, I hired two wonderful caregivers that my client immediately embraced; they took the necessary initiative in caring for my client both medically and emotionally. As the legal guardian, I enrolled in the Employer Support Plan which made hiring caregivers smooth and seamless. Paychecks were automatically withdrawn from the bank account and I received weekly online payroll summaries by email, which made it very easy to stay up to date with fees and financial record keeping.

At Holistic HomeCare Associates, we like to stay updated on Health Care Policy. Did you know that Traditional Medicare is testing a new AI system called WISeR that will pre-authorize certain healthcare services — a process more commonly used in Medicare Advantage. The six-year pilot aims to reduce costs and is being rolled out in:
📍 Arizona
📍 New Jersey
📍 Ohio
📍 Oklahoma
📍 Texas
📍 Washington
While technology may improve efficiency, prior authorization can sometimes delay care. If you live in one of these states, ask your provider whether a service needs approval and make sure you understand your appeal rights.

Can a wheelchair-bound patient achieve meaningful recovery? Can people with complex neurological conditions truly make progress at home? And how do clinicians realistically assess and forecast recovery for patients with stroke or Parkinson’s?
Those powerful questions drove an inspiring presentation by Dr. Eric M. Turk, owner of The STOOP NY—Door-to-Door Rehab, at the Orion Westchester meeting in Mt. Vernon, NY. Dr. Turk shared compelling, real-world stories of patients once told they would never walk again, who went on to make meaningful gains through innovative, home-based neuro rehabilitation.
Joe Lawliss, Client Relationship Manager with Holistic HomeCare Associates, really enjoyed the presentation and conversation and wanted to give a shout out to our hosts at the beautifully renovated Sunrise Fleetwood for providing such a welcoming space for a thoughtful and energizing discussion.

This Black History Month, Holistic HomeCare Associates honors the caregivers who have shaped the history and the heart of healthcare.
We’re proud to celebrate Mary Eliza Mahoney (1845–1926) who paved the way and broke down barriers for professional nursing as we know it. In a segregated field, she became one of the first Black women to earn a nursing license in the United States and co-founded an organization to support minority nurses at a time when they were excluded from mainstream professional groups. At a time when her work was often undervalued, she showed the world that caregiving is skilled, dignified, and deeply impactful work. Her commitment to compassion, professionalism, and advocacy paved the way for generations of nurses and caregivers.

It was a pleasure spending time with the Social Worker and Discharge Planning team at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital for a Lunch-and-Learn on “From Rehab to Home: Closing the Gaps in Complex-Care Discharges.”
We discussed how Direct Hire home care can uniquely bridge critical discharge gaps—supporting care at home in ways similar to CDPAP, while remaining fully private pay, compliant, and easy for families to manage.
Thank you to the Burke team for the thoughtful discussion and collaboration.

When Care Standards Go Backward
If someone you love lives in a nursing home, this should stop you in your tracks.
The recent Trump administration's federal reconciliation bill rolled back plans to require minimum staffing levels and a registered nurse on site 24/7. That means fewer guaranteed safeguards for residents who depend on others for care, comfort, and safety. At a time when residents are sicker and more vulnerable than ever, fewer staff isn’t just a policy change, it’s a real risk.
This is a moment to pay attention and speak up.

Dressing apraxia is common in people living with dementia. When the brain can’t process how to dress appropriately, seniors may go outside underdressed — even in freezing temperatures.
In cold weather, this can quickly become life-threatening, increasing the risk of hypothermia and frostbite. Extra supervision, visual cues, and weather-appropriate clothing aren’t just helpful — they’re essential.
Winter safety starts with awareness.
