Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions from clients, families, and referral partners about our non-medical home care services.

Do you provide overnight or 24-hour care?
+

Yes. We offer flexible scheduling that includes overnight stays and extended daily care. Whether you need a few hours in the morning or round-the-clock support, we will build a schedule that fits your loved one's needs. Contact us to discuss availability and pricing for extended care.

Is there a minimum number of hours required per visit?
+

We typically require a minimum of 2–3 hours per visit to ensure quality care and meaningful time with your loved one. However, we are flexible and will work with you to create a schedule that makes sense for your situation. There is no minimum weekly hour requirement to get started.

Can you help with Alzheimer's or dementia patients?
+

Yes. Our caregivers are experienced in providing compassionate support for clients with Alzheimer's and dementia. We focus on consistency, routine, and patience — key elements in dementia care. We carefully match your loved one with a caregiver who has experience working with memory care clients.

Are your caregivers background checked and vetted?
+

Absolutely. Every caregiver undergoes a thorough background check, reference verification, and skills assessment before being placed with any client. You will only ever have a trusted, vetted professional in your home.

Will my loved one have the same caregiver each visit?
+

We strongly believe in consistency and do our best to assign the same caregiver to each client. In cases of illness or scheduling conflicts, we will always notify you in advance and ensure a qualified replacement is available.

Can I request a male or female caregiver?
+

Yes, absolutely. We respect every client's comfort and preferences. Simply let us know during your free consultation and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

How much does non-medical home care cost?
+

Our rates are competitive and vary based on the type of care, number of hours, and frequency of visits. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Contact us directly for a personalized quote — we are committed to working within your budget.

Do you accept insurance or Medicaid?
+

We are currently a private pay provider and are actively working toward Medicaid and long-term care insurance acceptance. Some long-term care insurance policies cover non-medical home care — we recommend checking with your provider. Contact us and we will help guide you through your options.

Is there a long-term contract I have to sign?
+

No long-term contracts are required. Services can be started, paused, or stopped at any time. We earn your continued trust every single visit — not through contracts.

How quickly can care begin after I call?
+

In many cases, we can begin care within 24–48 hours of your initial consultation. We understand that care needs can arise quickly and we prioritize responsive scheduling.

What happens during the free in-home consultation?
+

A Unity Choice Home Care coordinator will visit your home, meet your loved one, and have an open conversation about their care needs, routine, and preferences. Together we build a personalized care plan. There is no obligation to commit — it is simply a caring conversation to ensure we are the right fit for your family.

Is Unity Choice Home Care licensed and insured?
+

Yes. Unity Choice Home Care is fully licensed and insured in the state of Texas. We carry liability insurance and are committed to full compliance with all applicable Texas state regulations.

How do I know my loved one is being treated well?
+

We maintain open, ongoing communication with families throughout the care relationship. You are always welcome to check in, ask questions, or adjust the care plan. We conduct regular care reviews and encourage feedback from both clients and families.
