Family learning about Marigold care plan options at home

Essential tips for caring for aging parents often end at the hardest question: which plan, how many hours, and what happens when needs change? Here are the straight answers our coordinators give every family.

Start with the week, not the month. Map mornings, meals, medications, nights and weekends — then mark where family covers and where gaps remain. Most families discover they need fewer hours than feared, concentrated where they matter most.

Choosing Your Level

Our Basic plan suits independent seniors who need a steady hand — personal care, companionship and medication reminders. Standard adds housekeeping and mobility support for fuller days. Premium wraps everything together with personal assistance and daily wellness monitoring for complex or changing needs.

"A care plan is a living document. Ours get reviewed every month — and rewritten whenever life does."

The key word is flexible. Increase hours during recovery, scale back as strength returns, swap services seasonally. Changes typically take effect within 24–48 hours, and your coordinator handles all of it with one phone call.

What It Costs — Plainly

Basic runs $890 per month, Standard $1,520 and Premium $2,160 — each with a free consultation and assessment before you spend anything. No enrollment fees, no contracts, no surprises on the invoice. If a plan ever stops fitting, we rebuild it with you on the spot.

Still unsure? Book the free assessment. A registered nurse will visit, evaluate honestly — sometimes telling you that you need less than you thought — and leave you with a written plan whether you hire us or not.
