What We've Learned Serving Families in Unionville
Unionville's mill-era streets, once shaped by Irish, Italian, and Slavic immigrant families in the 1800s, are packed with older multi-family and single-family homes close to the road — narrow lots that make wheelchair ramps and exterior modifications trickier than in a newer subdivision.
Many longtime Unionville residents still reference the flood of 1955, which reshaped the village center — it comes up often in conversation with our older clients as a defining community memory.
We regularly support residents of Maple Village, the town-owned elderly housing community, with services that go beyond what the building itself provides — companionship, medication reminders, and help after a hospital stay.
A Team That Treats Unionville as Its Own Community
Unionville is often lumped in with Farmington on paper, but residents know it has its own center, its own history, and its own rhythm. We plan care around Unionville specifically, not a generic Farmington-wide template.
Whether a client lives in a historic mill-era home or at Maple Village, our caregivers adjust to the space and the routine, not the other way around.
- Unionville-specific care planning, not a generic Farmington template.
- Caregiver-founded agency built on real experience.
- Maple Village experience for residents of town elderly housing.

Unionville Home Care Questions
Do you serve residents of Maple Village?
Yes, we regularly support Maple Village residents with companion care, personal care, and post-hospital support.
Is Unionville care different from care in the rest of Farmington?
We tailor every care plan to the specific home and neighborhood, so a Unionville mill-village home gets a different plan than a newer Farmington subdivision home.
How quickly can care start?
We can often place a caregiver within 24-48 hours, and sometimes the same day for urgent needs.
Do you accept long-term care insurance or Medicaid?
We accept private pay and long-term care insurance, and Medicaid in applicable cases. Medicare typically does not cover non-medical home care.
Can a caregiver help my parent get to the Farmington Senior Center or the library?
Yes, our caregivers can provide transportation and companionship for local errands and appointments.
What if my parent only needs a few hours of help a week?
Care plans are flexible — many Unionville clients start with a few hours a week and adjust as needs change.
Are your caregivers trained in dementia care?
Yes, our caregivers receive specialized dementia and Alzheimer's training, including redirection techniques and routine-based support.
