How It Works Here
- Care Providers visit on a schedule established in the care plan to provide conversation, shared activities, meal preparation or mealtime support
- Services include errands (grocery shopping, routine needs), light household tasks, accompaniment to activities or appointments, and routine reminders
- Initial process involves a phone call to discuss the person's routine and needs, a conversation about preferences and interests, creation of an individualized care plan, then Care Provider visits begin according to the established schedule
- Provides 24-hour home care through shift-based visits, not live-in care
What Stands Out About True North Home Care
- Fully insured and bonded; Care Providers complete background checks
- Founder and CEO Kayla Nelson, RN, has served Omaha-area seniors since 2013 with geriatric, hospice, and palliative care experience
- Team includes two Certified Dementia Practitioners for seniors with early memory loss
- Offers multiple services so families can transition to personal care, dementia support, or hospital-to-home assistance as needs change
Who True North Home Care Supports
Seniors who are mostly independent but could benefit from regular companionship and practical support, including those who live alone, no longer drive, have limited local family support, or are experiencing loneliness or social isolation. Also helpful for seniors in early stages of memory loss and those recovering from hospitalization.

How does the process work to get started?
Call to describe your loved one's current routine and areas needing support. True North learns about interests, personality, schedule, and household routines. A care plan is created around the person's needs and family's priorities. Then a Care Provider begins spending time with your loved one according to the established schedule and care plan.
Can companion care help with someone who has memory loss?
Yes. A person with mild memory changes may benefit from conversation, routine support, simple cueing, and meaningful activities. If memory needs become more significant, specialized Alzheimer's and dementia care may be appropriate.
