We've hired three companies in the past and this was the best. Much better prices, easier to work with and the caregivers were all very nice.

Martha E.

SmithLife Homecare provided excellent support from scheduling to appointment pick-up. Staff were courteous, caring, and compassionate - the three "C's" that one would expect when caring for a loved one. This organization is highly recommended and their culture is excellent!

Mark X.

Just as valuable to me as her nursing skills was her ability to provide me with companionship during my recovery.

Claire G., Bethesda, MD

We worked with SLHC to set up care for my mother when she came home from the hospital and a rehabilitation center after a fall. The care needed to be set up very quickly, and SLHC handled this beautifully.

I had a superb experience with SmithLife Homecare. They instantly accommodated 2 doctor mandated schedule changes without raising a fuss. I recommend SmithLife Homecare to everyone.

William G.

We have had support from Smithlife for the past few years to care for our Mother at her independent living facility. They have been very good to work with, always meeting our needs, especially on very short notice, and their caregivers have been excellent. The administrative staff has always been available and very responsive to any requests we would have, day or night, and made sure the needs of my Mother were always their priority.

Comprehensive Elder Care Solutions with Professional Assistance for Aging in Place

SmithLife Homecare operates out of Rockville, Chevy Chase and Washington, DC, primarily providing senior home care in these areas and throughout Montgomery County. Our home health care agency takes pride in empowering elderly members of our community to maintain their independence and enjoy a higher quality of life, longer than they might have thought possible. We recognize that every patient of ours is an individual. Therefore, we develop a unique approach to elderly care for every single patient. With our senior home health care services, we ensure that your loved ones receive the essential medical support, emotional care, and companionship they need, all from the comfort of their own homes—eliminating the need to move to a care facility.

Helping our loved ones maintain dignity and independence as they are aging in place can be a delicate balancing act. While your elderly relatives may increasingly need help to complete day-to-day tasks, they might still want to live alone. In fact, having the opportunity to do so is of crucial importance to many older Americans. In-home senior care is a fantastic option in such cases. A home care agency like ours can provide vital services and support to the elderly and vulnerable while still enabling them to live an independent life at home.

The home health services we provide are diverse, and we aim to support your loved ones in every facet of their lives. SmithLife Homecare provides high-quality nursing care for adults and seniors who want companion care and for more complex or challenging medical situations. In addition, companion care from caregivers is an option for patients who require a more personalized touch. We specialize in supporting aging in place, stroke recovery, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s , dementia, and hospice care clients in the comfort of their own home. Our home health aides come to your loved one’s address for a regular check-in.

Our range of home care services includes assistance with personal care, health support, mobility, transfers, medication reminders, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and transportation. Our aides also provide companionship and emotional support, which can be particularly important for the elderly who may feel isolated or lonely. Let our dedicated aides ensure your loved ones receive the emotional support and companionship they need to thrive as they age in place.
