Elite Home Care and Assisted Living

If you’ve found yourself wondering what the difference between our in-home care and day centers are versus assisted living, don’t worry, we get that question all the time. At Elite Home Care, our day center services are for those who want to come in, meet with similar individuals, play games, and have community meals. We like to think of our day centers as a communal space to receive daily care, but we don’t offer overnight accommodations. We also provide in-home care services, which means we send DHEC professionals to your home to help with everyday tasks like personal care and companion care. In that regard, Elite Home Care is more like a skilled nursing facility than assisted living.

What is Assisted Living?

Assisted living is for people who need help with daily care, but not as much help as a true nursing home provides. When you sign up for an assisted living facility, you are usually signing up for a high level of care every day, but also maintain independence by living in your own apartment on-site. Assisted living is, essentially, personalized care in a residential setting.


When we talk about assisted living, we like to compare it to college dorm style living, but for the elderly. Assisted living residents usually live in their own apartments on premises but share common spaces to connect with each other. Assisted living is a great way to receive a high-level of care, fresh meals, 24-hour supervision and support and recreational activities with similar individuals in one place.

Why Elite Home Care?

Because Elite Home Care walks the line between assisted living and a nursing facility, we find that many elderly individuals use our services when they’re in the stages between needing minimal support, but also needing care that family members (often primary caregivers) cannot give 24/7.


By choosing to enroll at Elite Home Care, you can choose the program that works best for you. We offer in-home care such as companion and personal care as well as day center care (or both for a discounted rate) for elderly individuals or individuals 18+ with special needs. Our care comes in the form of respite care, complete in-home care, or day center care – with many benefits to all! We’re also flexible to meet the needs of your loved one. Do you need care twice a month or four times a week? We’re happy to accommodate!
