Clearwater Families Gain Local In-Home Eldercare

Live Poll

Would you trust a local in-home care agency to look after an aging parent?

A Better Solution In Home Care has expanded its private-pay, non-medical home care services into Clearwater, Kansas, according to an announcement made November 5, 2026. The expansion brings in-home support to Clearwater residents and families seeking help for older loved ones.

Why it matters

Families in Clearwater have often had to look outside their community to find dependable in-home care for aging parents and relatives. Bringing a local-area provider into Clearwater gives families closer access to support that can help older adults remain at home longer.

This is an announcement of a business expansion rather than a study, so no clinical or outcome data are reported. The agency's service history dates to 2000, when it opened its first Sedgwick County location, but no service volume or client figures were provided for Clearwater.

The players

A Better Solution In Home Care

A private-pay, non-medical home care provider serving the Wichita area and Sedgwick and Butler counties, offering personal care, companionship, and household support for older adults.

The details

A Better Solution In Home Care is a private-pay, non-medical provider, meaning its aides help with daily living rather than skilled medical treatment. Services include bathing, dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping, medication reminders, and companionship. Families can arrange a few hours of help each week or round-the-clock care, with same-day care available when a situation changes quickly. Every relationship begins with a free in-home assessment, and care plans are shaped around each person's routine and preferences.

Timeline

  1. 2000: The agency began serving Wichita-area families, opening Sedgwick County's first location.

  2. November 5, 2026: The agency announced its expansion into Clearwater, Kansas.

Health Landscape

Non-medical in-home care sits alongside skilled nursing and assisted living as one option for families supporting older adults who want to age in their own homes. Expansions like this one extend that option to smaller communities that have historically had fewer local providers to choose from.

If you have an older relative in Clearwater who needs help with bathing, meals, or medication reminders, a local in-home option may now be closer to home. Many families begin with a free in-home assessment to see what level of support fits, and it is worth discussing any care changes with the person's physician.

The takeaway

Non-medical home care can offer practical daily support, and a free in-home assessment is a low-commitment way to explore whether it fits your family's needs. Keep your loved one's physician involved in any decisions about changes to their care.
