Who We Are

Far too often, senior care becomes a commodity business. Competition drives prices downward, forcing caregivers to perform essential duties for a little bit less. But no one wants “commodity care” for Mom or Dad. Low-price leaders may provide companionship, homemaking or personal care for a slightly lower cost, but they struggle to consistently produce what we seek most for our parents: genuine compassion.

If your loved one is functioning independently but needs an extra set of hands to remain healthy and active in their homes, companionship care may be the right fit. Every Commonwise Care Team member is screened for emotional intelligence, making them more effective companions. Typical requests include (but are not limited to):

  • Housework and laundry
  • Medication reminders
  • Transportation
  • Preparing meals
  • Shopping
  • Pet care

How the Commonwise Senior Care model of care is different: 

  • The current senior care system is broken - Everyone in the senior care market is motivated to serve. All of our competitors are compassionate people who care about their clients; their workers generally receive near minimum wage.
  • We recruit the best - Identifying quality caregivers is a science. We have developed an evidence-based selection methodology to ensure that every Care Team member demonstrates the competencies necessary to provide exceptional care.  After all, true compassion cannot be trained, but it can be discovered — and rewarded.
  • We provide “full-circle dignity” - The best way to ensure compassion and respect for our clients is to treat our Care Team with compassion and respect. With our recruitment systems designed to find the best candidates, we pay caregivers, on average, 75% more than do our competitors.
  • We promote empowerment for caregivers - Our goal is to serve the servants. Commonwise is built around recruiting people who excel at both “hard” and “soft” skills. From these gifted caregivers, we not only allow wise decision-making, we expect it.
  • We protect the peace of mind for families - When you choose Commonwise, rest assured that the care of your loved one is not entrusted to the person willing to do the job for the least amount of money. Our recruitment and training systems are built to attract the kind of people you want to take care of your loved one
