Welcome to Assisting Hands Home Care

We’re Derek and Angela Flintz, a husband-and-wife team driven by a shared passion for delivering exceptional home care to elderly individuals and their families. With over 35 years of combined experience in nursing, communication management, and home care, we've devoted our lives to ensuring that your loved ones receive the highest quality care—right where they feel most comfortable—at home.

Our journey into home care is deeply personal. When Derek’s grandfather was diagnosed with dementia, we witnessed firsthand the emotional toll it took on him and our family. Watching his decline in a nursing home, where engagement and interaction were lacking, fueled our commitment to creating a better alternative: personalized, compassionate care in the comfort of one’s own home. We understand the emotional challenges families face when caring for a loved one with dementia or other age-related conditions, and we’ve made it our mission to provide the kind of nurturing care that Derek’s grandfather deserved.

At Assisting Hands Home Care, we believe that every client is family. Our approach is grounded in both our personal experiences and professional expertise, allowing us to deliver care that truly makes a difference. Whether it's assistance with daily activities, specialized dementia care, or simply offering a comforting presence, we are here to support your loved one in living a dignified and fulfilling life at home.

We are also proud parents to three wonderful girls—Devin, Ayla, and Dorian—who inspire us every day. We invite you to explore our services and reach out with any questions. We’re here to listen, understand your unique needs, and work together to create a care plan that ensures your loved one’s safety, comfort, and happiness.

Thank you for considering us as part of your family’s journey. We’re honored to walk alongside you in providing the care and support your loved one deserves.

The Perfect Caregiver Match

We believe the foundation of exceptional care lies in finding the perfect caregiver match. Alongside experience and training, we place great emphasis on selecting caregivers who possess genuine warmth and compassion. We ask ourselves a crucial question during the caregiver selection process: “Would we trust this individual to take care of our own parents?” If the answer is yes, it ensures our clients can have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in capable hands. Once a caregiver is chosen, he or she can provide assistance with:

  • Personal hygiene, including bathing, grooming, dressing, and incontinence care
  • Meal preparation and grocery shopping
  • Light housekeeping, laundry, and changing of bed sheets and linens
  • Reliable transportation for errands, medical appointments, and social events
  • Aid with mobility, bed and wheelchair transfers, and toileting
  • Medication reminders and prescription pickup
  • Safety monitoring and fall prevention
  • Cognitive stimulation and emotional support
  • Companionship and meaningful social interactions
  • Specialized care for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s

I don't know how I would have made it through the first two weeks after my hip surgery without the help of the caregivers from Assisting Hands®. They gave me the peace of mind of knowing I'd have someone coming byeveryday to help with post-surgery exercises and appointments. As an added bonus, they did my laundry and helped with other thingsaround the house. If! find myself in a similar situation again, I would certainly turn to Assisting Hands for help.

My father has Alzheimer's and I found it difficult leaving him home alone during the night. I contacted Assisting Hands® Home Care and ever since life has been a relief for me and a relief for my father. Now I go ahead and handle my endeavors in my life and know my father is well taken care of. It's amazing how much of an understanding my father and his caregiver have. I am so pleased with the level of service Assisting Hands® Home Care has provided me.
