Home Care & Home Health

Home care is deeply personal. When services are provided in someone’s own space, understanding who they are, what matters to them, and how they want to live becomes nearly as important as the care itself. LifeBio helps carers and home health teams build that understanding by capturing each person’s story and making it accessible to caregivers across visits, disciplines, and transitions.

Many older adults prefer to remain at home as they age, and home care now plays a central role in health care delivery. An estimated 31 percent of older adults die at home, which underscores how important it is for care teams to understand personal values, routines, relationships, and life experiences. LifeBio supports more individualized care by ensuring that personal history informs communication, engagement, and decision-making throughout the care journey.

LifeBio provides practical tools that help caregivers learn about each person beyond clinical notes. One option is an organization-wide license to use the LifeBio Memory reminiscence therapy app, available on iOS and Android smartphones and tablets. The app guides structured, respectful conversations that reveal meaningful life events, preferences, and sources of comfort. These insights help caregivers communicate more effectively, build trust faster, and tailor care in ways that feel familiar and reassuring to the individual.

Home-based care teams use LifeBio to support:

• Stronger caregiver-client relationships built on trust and understanding
• More consistent care across rotating staff, aides, or visiting clinicians
• Better communication during transitions between home care, home health, and hospice
• Greater emotional comfort and orientation for people receiving care at home
• More meaningful involvement of families who want their loved one’s wishes understood

As a LifeBio Authorized Organization, you'll also receive:

• Online training for staff
• Ongoing phone and email support
• Engagement materials, including Story Cards and the MemoryBio photo album, for memory care

LifeBio’s approach is grounded in research on reminiscence, identity, and emotional well-being. Evidence indicates that personalized, story-based engagement can support mood, reduce distress, and strengthen connection for older adults, including those living with cognitive change or serious illness.

RESEARCH SUPPORTING LIFEBIO'S EVIDENCE-INFORMED PROGRAM

LifeBio also provides a meaningful advantage for carers and home health organizations in a relationship-driven market. Families want reassurance that caregivers will see their loved one as a person, not a task list. LifeBio helps agencies demonstrate that commitment by embedding personal understanding into everyday care, from the first visit through ongoing support.

This approach supports smoother onboarding, more substantial family confidence, and clearer differentiation in competitive markets where trust and reputation matter. By showing how personal stories guide care, LifeBio helps organizations communicate their values, strengthen referrals, and support outcomes that align with what individuals and families want most when care happens at home.
