CareBuilders at Home

OAKLAND COUNTY — CareBuilders at Home of Oakland County provides personalized, non-medical in-home care services designed to help seniors and adults maintain independence, dignity, and quality of life in the comfort of their own homes. The agency is based in Southfield, serving families throughout Oakland County and the surrounding Metro Detroit area.

Locally owned by Jeff Brown, this private pay homecare service provides personalized support for every stage of seniors who live at home and want to maintain independence. The organization offers a wide range of non-medical services tailored to each client’s unique needs. 

“We handle the continuum care for seniors who value some independence from companion to special care,” says Brown.

One of the unique features of CareBuilders at Home is a medical alert device monitoring system available to all clients. This smartwatch provides wellness monitoring 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It follows both unusual patterns and regular routines. 

The watch and the corresponding system are available to clients through a relationship that Brown has built with the healthcare industry-based manufacturers. The monitoring system provides seniors and their family members peace of mind without additional charges. The system also detects falls or other physical issues and alerts a power of attorney and power of medical decision-making contact that there is an issue. Furthermore, the system automatically contacts local EMS without manual support in the event of an emergency. 

“The watch is big and bold and can be seen by seniors,” Brown said. It is one of the potential non-medical services available to clients following an initial assessment.

There are three categories of services. Companion services provide personal engagement, meal preparation, light housekeeping, local transportation, and more. The second phase is Personal care, where CareBuilders professionals offer such services as bathing, dressing, and grooming.

Finally, CareBuilders provides specialized care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, and other chronic conditions. 

Care plans are flexible, ranging from a few hours of weekly support to around-the-clock care. “We can set up daily phone calls to our clients, phone reminders to take medication and find ways to increase direct engagement,” Brown said. “We’ll work with all of our clients for a specific plan that fits their needs.” 

All caregivers are carefully screened, background-checked, and trained to ensure safe, compassionate care. By combining personalized service, experienced caregivers, and a mission centered on dignity and independence, CareBuilders at Home continues to be a trusted resource for families seeking reliable in-home care in Southfield and across Oakland County.
