In-Home Care Services Vero Beach
Every Service Your Loved One Needs, Right Here in Vero Beach
In-Home Care Services Vero Beach Families Have Trusted Since Day One
In home care services Vero Beach families need range from a few hours of companion care each week to full 24-hour support for advanced dementia. We provide all of it, in-house, with locally-based caregivers — not contractors, not franchise temps, and never anonymous staffing agency placements.
Hummingbird Care Services was founded in Vero Beach by a Vero Beach native. Our office sits at 1031 18th Street, and the majority of our caregivers live within 15 minutes of the families they serve. When you call us at (772) 202-2213, a real person picks up — our owner, our director, or a member of our small care coordination team. Never a call center, never an answering service.
Below, we walk through every in-home care service we provide — what it includes, who it’s for, and how to know which level of care fits your loved one.
Personal Assistance Care
Help With Bathing, Dressing & Daily Living
Personal assistance care is the foundation of in-home care services Vero Beach families call us about most often. It’s help with the basic activities of daily living — bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transfers, mobility, and meal preparation — delivered with dignity in the comfort of home.
Our caregivers are trained in safe transfer techniques, fall prevention, and respectful personal care. We work with families whose loved one is recovering from a hospital stay, navigating reduced mobility from arthritis or Parkinson’s, or simply needs a hand with the daily routines that used to be effortless.
Most common reasons families call us for personal assistance: post-fall recovery, post-surgery discharge from Cleveland Clinic Indian River, declining ADL independence, family caregiver burnout, and the need for a consistent morning or evening routine.
Memory Support Care
Dementia-Trained Care for Vero Beach Families
Memory support is specialized in-home care for Vero Beach families whose loved one is living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, Lewy body, vascular dementia, or other forms of cognitive decline. Our memory care caregivers are specifically trained in redirection, validation, and routine-based care that keeps days predictable and calm.
We don’t treat memory care like personal care with a different label. Memory loss changes everything about how care needs to be delivered — pace, tone, environment, even how meals are presented. Our caregivers know the difference and adjust every interaction accordingly.
What memory support looks like in practice: consistent caregivers (not constant rotation), familiar routines, calm environments, validated communication when memory falters, and patient supervision that prevents wandering and falls without feeling restrictive. This is one of the core in-home care services Vero Beach families count on Hummingbird for.
Respite Care
When Family Caregivers Need a Break
Family caregivers carry an enormous weight. Whether you’ve been caring for a spouse, parent, or sibling for months or years, respite care exists for exactly one reason: so you can rest, recharge, travel, or simply take a day for yourself without worrying about your loved one’s safety or comfort.
We provide respite care across Vero Beach in flexible blocks — a few hours, overnight, a weekend, a full week, or longer for vacations or family emergencies. Our caregivers step in seamlessly, follow your established routines, and report back with the details you’d want to know.
Common respite scenarios in Vero Beach: spouse caregivers needing weekly time off, adult children flying in from out of state, family emergencies, vacations, surgical recovery for the family caregiver themselves, and “just needing a break” before burnout becomes a crisis. This is one of the core in-home care services Vero Beach families count on Hummingbird for.
24-Hour Care
Around-the-Clock Support in Your Vero Beach Home
24-hour care is full coverage — every shift, every day, every night. We provide it for Vero Beach families whose loved one needs continuous supervision due to advanced dementia, recent hospital discharge, high fall risk, or progressive illness that no longer permits time alone.
Our 24-hour care is staffed by a rotating team of trusted caregivers — not one exhausted person doing impossible shifts, and not a parade of strangers. You get continuity and consistency, with the same small team building real familiarity with your loved one over weeks and months.
What 24-hour care includes: overnight awake supervision, medication reminders, toileting and mobility support around the clock, meal preparation and feeding assistance, fall prevention monitoring, and family communication that keeps you informed without overwhelming you with updates. This is one of the core in-home care services Vero Beach families count on Hummingbird for.
Companion Care
Connection, Conversation, and Community
Companion care is for Vero Beach seniors who are physically independent but increasingly isolated. They don’t need help bathing — they need a friend. Someone to talk with, run errands with, walk the boardwalk with, or just share an afternoon over coffee. Isolation is a real health risk for seniors, and companionship is the most underrated form of preventive care.
Our companion caregivers are paired with clients based on personality and interests, not random availability. We try hard to match people who will actually enjoy each other’s company — because that’s the whole point.
What companion care looks like: conversation and games, light errands (groceries, post office, pharmacy), accompanying to medical appointments, meal preparation, light housekeeping, walks along Riverside Park or the beach, reading together, and just being present so the days don’t feel so long. This is one of the core in-home care services Vero Beach families count on Hummingbird for.
Veteran Assistance
Home Care That Honors Your Service
Veteran assistance is personalized in-home care for Vero Beach veterans, delivered with the dignity and respect their service has earned. We work with the VA Aid & Attendance benefit, VA Community Care Network referrals, and private pay arrangements to make care accessible for veterans and their surviving spouses.
Many of our caregivers have specific experience working with veterans, and we understand the particular needs of those who served — PTSD considerations, service-connected disability accommodations, and the cultural respect that matters when someone has given decades to their country.
What we help veterans with: the full range of personal assistance and companion care, plus VA benefits navigation, coordination with VA primary care, and connection to local veteran resources in the Treasure Coast area. This is one of the core in-home care services Vero Beach families count on Hummingbird for.

What Makes Us Different
A Real Local Agency — Not a Franchise
Hummingbird Care Services was founded in Vero Beach by Vero Beach natives. Our CEO grew up here. Our office is on 18th Street, not in a downtown skyscraper 50 miles away. When you call us, you’re talking to your neighbors.
That matters because home care is personal. Our caregivers know what McKee Botanical Garden looks like in the spring. They know which Publix is closer to your mom’s house. They’ve been to Riverside Theater. This isn’t corporate care — this is community care.
Barrier Island to Mainland
We Cover Every Vero Beach Neighborhood
Vero Beach families live in vastly different worlds — from oceanfront estates in John’s Island, Riomar, and The Moorings to mainland neighborhoods like McAnsh Park and Rockridge, plus the surrounding communities of Vero Lake Estates, Oslo, and West Vero Corridor.
Our caregivers live across all of them. That means whether your loved one is in a barrier island condo or a mainland bungalow, the person showing up to care for them is already nearby. Most arrive in under 15 minutes.
Don’t see your neighborhood? Call (772) 202-2213 — we serve all of Vero Beach and most of Indian River County.

Caregiver Matching, Not Dispatching
We match caregivers to clients by personality, needs, and preferences — not just availability. A consistent, familiar face makes all the difference in personal care.
We offer the full range of in-home care services Vero Beach families need: Personal Assistance, Memory Support, Respite Care, 24-Hour Care, Companion Care, and Veteran Assistance. Each is delivered by trained, vetted, locally-based caregivers and can be customized to your loved one's specific needs.
Personal assistance is hands-on physical care — bathing, dressing, transfers, mobility, toileting, meal feeding. Companion care is non-hands-on — conversation, errands, light housekeeping, accompaniment to appointments. Many Vero Beach families start with companion care and transition to personal assistance as needs evolve. We adjust the care plan as the situation changes.
For Vero Beach families, we typically have a caregiver in place within 2 to 3 days of your first call. For urgent situations — Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital discharge, post-fall recovery, sudden caregiver loss — we can often begin care within 24 hours. Call before 5 PM and we'll have a care coordinator at your home the next day.
Pricing depends on the level of care and number of hours per week. Companion care is typically the most affordable, with personal assistance and memory care reflecting the additional training involved. 24-hour care is priced as a daily rate. We keep rates consistent across all four counties we serve, and a free in-home consultation gives you a clear, written quote with no surprises.
Yes. We accept private pay, long-term care insurance, and VA Aid & Attendance benefits. We help families navigate long-term care insurance billing — including direct billing to most major carriers — and we work with the VA Community Care Network for eligible veterans.
Yes. Every caregiver is background-checked through Florida's Level 2 screening, drug-tested, and trained before starting client work. Our memory care caregivers receive additional dementia-specific training. We're a licensed home care agency operating under Florida HHA license #299995921 — accountability lives with us, not with an individual caregiver or staffing company.
Yes — this is one of our most common reasons families call. We coordinate with Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital case managers, family members, and the discharge team to have a caregiver in place by the day your loved one comes home. We've done this hundreds of times. Call us from the hospital room and we'll move fast.
Care plans flex. Many Vero Beach families start with 4-8 hours a week and increase as needs change. Others start with 24-hour care during a recovery period and step down. We review the care plan with you regularly and adjust hours, services, and caregiver assignments as your loved one's needs evolve. No contracts locking you into hours you don't need.
