FINDING THE RIGHT FIT

Three levels of care — one standard of excellence.

SevynCare organizes our non-medical services into three tiers — so you can quickly understand which level fits your loved one, and how care can grow with them. Explore the tiers below, or take our two-minute assessment for a guided recommendation.

OUR TIERS OF CARE

Care meets your loved one where they are — and grows from there.

Most families start in one tier and shift as their loved one's needs evolve. Care plans are flexible — and any combination of services can be blended into any tier.

TIER 1

Essential

A steady, supportive presence.

WEEKLY HOURS

4 — 20

hours per week

For loved ones who are mostly independent but benefit from companionship, light support, and someone keeping an eye on the day. Often the first step families take — early enough to make a real difference.

WHAT FAMILIES EXPERIENCE

  • Your loved one stops feeling like they're alone in the house all day.
  • You stop calling three times a day to check on them — because someone you trust is already there.
  • Small but steady support catches little things before they become big problems.

TIER 2

Comprehensive

Hands-on daily help with patience and dignity.

WEEKLY HOURS

20 — 40

hours per week

For loved ones who need real, hands-on help getting through the day — but who don't yet need specialized memory or complex routine care. This is the tier most families settle into for the longest stretch of their journey.

WHAT FAMILIES EXPERIENCE

  • Your loved one's daily routines stay consistent — bathing, meals, mobility, medication reminders — without your family scrambling to cover every shift.
  • You finally get to be a daughter or son again, not a caregiver running on empty.
  • When something changes — a fall, a hospital visit, a hard week — we're already there, ready to adjust.

TIER 3

Specialized

Non-medical care for complex, changing needs.

WEEKLY HOURS

40+

hours per week or live-in

For loved ones navigating Alzheimer's, dementia, advanced needs, or around-the-clock routines. Non-medical care designed around routine, comfort, and the belief that dignity doesn't fade with memory.

WHAT FAMILIES EXPERIENCE

  • Your loved one is never alone, even during the hardest hours — sundowning, overnight restlessness, advanced memory moments.
  • Your family gets to sleep, work, and live again — knowing skilled, non-medical care is in place around the clock.
  • Care evolves as their condition does, without you having to rebuild a care plan from scratch every time.

Rates vary based on care needs, schedule, and location. Most families pay privately. We're happy to help you explore all available funding options.

WHAT IF MY LOVED ONE IS BETWEEN TIERS

Care plans are built around the person — not the package.

Care needs rarely fit into neat boxes. If your loved one's situation falls between two tiers, we build the plan around what they actually need today — not a predetermined package. As their needs change, we adjust the hours, services, and level of support with them. No new contracts, no agency changes, no starting over.

A TYPICAL WEEK

What care actually looks like at each tier.

TIER 1 — ESSENTIAL

A widowed father in Blossomwood

A caregiver visits three mornings a week for four hours each. She helps with breakfast, tidies the kitchen, walks with him around the block, and sits down for coffee and conversation before leaving — so the days don't feel quite so long.

TIER 2 — COMPREHENSIVE

A mother in Jones Valley after a fall

Care five days a week, six hours a day. Help with bathing and dressing in the morning, a hot lunch, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and steady mobility support — plus a familiar face her adult kids can count on while they're at work.

TIER 3 — SPECIALIZED

A husband with mid-stage dementia in Hampton Cove

Daily care, including evenings, to ease sundowning. The caregiver follows a calm, predictable routine — meals, walks in the yard, music he knows — while his wife finally gets uninterrupted sleep and a real break from carrying it alone.

Your loved one's plan won't look exactly like any of these — and it isn't supposed to.

TWO-MINUTE ASSESSMENT

Which level of care fits your loved one?

Six quick questions about your loved one. We'll suggest the tier of care that most likely fits — whether that's a few hours of companionship a week or specialized support. There are no wrong answers.

Question 1 of 617%

How would you describe your loved one's day-to-day independence?

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions families ask before they call.

If something below isn't covered, your free consultation is the best place to ask. There's no question too small.

STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE RIGHT TIER?

Are you between two tiers — needing more than one offers but less than the next one fits?

Have things been changing fast enough that you're not sure where your loved one is on the spectrum right now?

Do you feel like the tier you'd pick today might not be the tier you need in three months?

That's normal. Tiers shift as needs shift — and the plan flexes with you.

Picking the right tier isn't a permanent decision. Most families start at one level and adjust as they learn what their loved one actually needs in real life. A free consultation is the easiest way to figure out the right starting point — and we'll keep adjusting from there as things change.
