Home Care Team of Texas

Kimberly Higgins, owner of Home Care Team of Texas, wants you to know that home care is not just for your grandmother.

“We’ve had young adult clients,” she says, “who needed help while they recovered from surgery. Sometimes moms have cosmetic surgery and need help with their kids while they recover. We’re here for whenever you need us.”

Kimberly has been in the care-giving business for over 30 years. She started out in nursing, then became director of corporate development at LHC Group, a national provider of in-home healthcare services. The LHC Group became a nationally traded company during Kimberly’s tenure.

Next Kimberly opened her own medical practice where she hired physicians and nurses to provide care and also owned a diagnostic ultrasound clinic. She sold those businesses in 2010 and tried to retire but still had more to give.

In addition to her professional experience, as the mother of six, Kimberly knows a lot about caregiving, so she opened Home Care of Texas, where she oversees 74 caregivers who deliver TLC across the Houston area.

“One of the things that sets us apart,” Kimberly says, “is that we are all compassionate and highly qualified. I hire people who I would send to care for my own mother or grandmother. We are a family and we support each other.”

Home Care Team of Texas offers post surgery and recovery care. The early days after surgery can often be the most important for recovery. It can be vital to follow doctors’ orders, and those orders can often limit daily activities. Home Care’s team will help with organizing medications, preparing meals, and even attend follow-up doctor visits to make recovery as positive as possible.

Memory care services provide specialized assistance designed to help individuals experiencing cognitive changes maintain structure, safety and engagement in their everyday lives. Home Care Team of Texas offers compassionate memory care services to help individuals continue living comfortably in their own homes.

A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia impacts the whole family, and Home Care of Texas majors in offering support in these difficult times. Having trained caregivers who understand the challenges in these situations can provide stability and reassurance.

“The type of support we offer is not a luxury,” Kimberly says. “When our phones ring we know it’s because a family or individual needs us. All our services are so important. And if we can’t help, we’ll find someone who can.”

Because she understands how much families need these types of care, Kimberly works at keeping costs low. She wants to ease the pressure felt during these times of stress and make sure as many people as possible can have the help they need.

While no one looks forward to needing help, it’s vital that that help be available when needed. You can count on the Home Care Team of Texas to support you and your family with compassion, patience and encouragement.
