Common Questions About LGBTQ+ Senior Care
What is LGBTQ+ home care?
LGBTQ+ home care provides personalized in-home support for LGBTQ+ seniors and adults who wish to remain safe, comfortable, and independent at home. Care may include assistance with personal care, companionship, housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, medication reminders, and other daily activities.
How is LGBTQ+ home care different from traditional home care?
In addition to providing quality in-home assistance, LGBTQ+ affirming caregivers understand the unique experiences and concerns that many LGBTQ+ older adults have faced throughout their lives. This includes respecting identity, relationships, privacy, and personal preferences while delivering compassionate, person-centered care.

What Our Clients Say
Words cannot express my gratitude to the staff and caregivers at Alegre Home Care. My Aunt was reluctant and refusing care. Alegre assembled the best team of caregivers to see her through to the end of her life and allowed her to remain at home.
The caregivers from Alegre are exceptional. They treated my mother with such dignity and respect. We felt confident knowing she was in good hands every single day.
I am so grateful for the compassionate care my father received. The team at Alegre made his final months comfortable and peaceful. Their LGBT-inclusive approach meant everything to our family.
