FAQ
Serving families across the Phoenix metro area
Mae’s Grace provides private pay, non-medical home care for older adults in Phoenix and nearby communities, including Scottsdale, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, and surrounding areas.
What is private pay home care?
Private pay home care means families pay directly for non-medical caregiving services rather than using medical insurance for custodial support. It is often the best fit when an older adult needs companionship, help with daily routines, respite, overnight support, or other day-to-day care at home.
What is included in your care, and what is not included?
Mae's Grace provides non-medical support for older adults at home and in senior communities. Care may include companionship, help with daily routines, personal care support, meal preparation, light housekeeping, respite care, overnight care, and after-hospital support. We do not provide diagnosis, medication management, skilled nursing, or other clinical services that require a licensed medical provider.

How quickly can care start?
Start timing depends on the schedule, the level of support needed, and caregiver availability. During the consultation, we talk through what is needed now, what can wait, and the earliest reasonable start based on fit and coverage.
Is there a minimum number of hours required?
Minimum hours can depend on the type of support, schedule pattern, and care plan. We review that early in the process so you know what is realistic before you commit.
How does pricing work for private pay home care?
Pricing is based on the type of support needed, the schedule, and the number of hours or level of coverage involved. Because Mae's Grace is private pay, we discuss costs directly and clearly so families understand the plan before care begins.
Will we have the same caregiver each time?
We aim for consistency because trust and routine matter. When possible, families are matched with a regular caregiver or a small care team based on schedule, needs, and fit.
How are caregivers screened, trained, and supervised?
Families should know who is coming into the home and how quality is managed. During the consultation, we explain how caregivers are screened, onboarded, and supervised, and how communication works if care needs change.
What happens if a caregiver cannot make a shift?
If there is an unexpected schedule change, we communicate quickly and work on the best available coverage plan. The goal is to reduce gaps, avoid confusion, and keep families informed as early as possible.
How do you communicate updates to families?
We align on a primary family contact and set expectations for how updates should work. That can include routine check-ins, direct communication about changes, and a clear path for questions or concerns so families are not left guessing.
Do you offer respite care?
Yes. Mae's Grace offers respite care for family caregivers who need reliable short-term support for a parent, spouse, or loved one. Respite can be scheduled regularly or used when a family needs extra help during a busy or stressful period.
Do you provide overnight or 24-hour home care?
Yes. Mae's Grace provides both overnight care and 24-hour home care based on the level of support needed. We can help you understand which option makes the most sense based on safety, supervision, and day-to-day routines.
