How Max can help
Support for the whole day, not just the to-do list.
Care should preserve dignity, independence, and the familiar rhythm of home. Every visit is shaped around the person—not a checklist.
Personal care
Respectful support with bathing, dressing, grooming, and the routines that help each day feel comfortable.
Everyday support
Light cleaning, meal preparation, and thoughtful help keeping the home calm, familiar, and cared for.
Transportation
Dependable rides to and from appointments, errands, and other important places around the Chicago suburbs.
Proper At Home Care provides non-medical support and does not provide nursing or clinical services.
A job that found me
Caregiving became part of my life story.
I began caring professionally by chance while I was between jobs. What I expected to be temporary became something deeply meaningful. Five years later, caregiving has introduced me to remarkable people with a wide range of needs—and shaped my own growth along the way.
Much of my experience has been with people living with Alzheimer’s, along with clients who need support communicating their wishes. My strength is patient listening: finding the best way for each person to be understood, then building trust from there.
