About Us

Deb BrandmeyerI read a few months back that an "estimated 50 million caregivers are currently taking care of loved ones at home" (Companion Connection Senior Care).  I'm not surprised--I was one of them for almost 9 years.  My mom, who suffers from Parkinson's disease with Lewy body dementia (PDD),  lives with my husband and I in an apartment built onto our home. When I couldn't physically spend all my time with her any longer, I hired caregivers to allow me to devote time to my family, and, frankly, to myself.  I decided to begin this business to not only help our aging adult population and family members who care for them, but to aid any adult who is disabled at home and needs the kind of treatment our caregivers show my mom.    

As owner and administrator of Caregivers Today, LLC, I have nine years of personal experience caring for my mother. Two years prior to her illness, I helped her care for my father, who died from colon cancer at the age of 70.  I understand the helplessness, confusion and the frustration  felt by many of our senior population and their families. After deciding to pursue my idea to form this company, I became a member of Companion Connection Senior Care, a national organization committed to helping seniors. I then formed Caregivers Today, LLC and have earned my CSA certification (Certified Senior Advisor) so that I can better  serve seniors and their families.  I earned a Masters Degree from Western Illinois University and teach college students in this community; education and awareness within our society are of the utmost importance to me.  

The staff I've hired are top notch--they are all caregivers with prior experience who demonstrate the same compassion I feel for our aging adults.  Each is skilled in everything from offering  pleasant companionship  to the care of people stricken with Alzheimer's and other dementias.  Our caregivers are given the opportunity to become educated and skilled in all areas of non-medical senior care, and they are bonded and insured.  Our head case manager has 18 years of experience as a caregiver; therefore, her expertise in overseeing both caregivers and clients is inspiring.  She understands the importance on the emphasis of "family" that is--and will continue to be--the main focus of this company. We use the least amount of caregivers per client to alleviate the feeling of "strangers in your home."  

You might be an older adult who is still independent, but would like companionship or to simply feel safer knowing someone is close by.  Maybe you require help with activities of daily living, including things like personal care or preparing meals.  Perhaps you'd just like to get out a bit to get your own groceries, shop, or visit friends, but need aid to do so. It's possible that you or a loved one wants to return home and recuperate after a stay in the hospital, but need companionship and light housekeeping or meals prepared.  If you are the main caregiver of a parent, you may need some respite in order to stay healthy; if you live far from your parent, we understand your concerns.  

We are a licensed non-medical in-home care agency.  Caregivers Today strives to help those in need of respite care, our older adults, those who are in or just out of the hospital--the list goes on.  Regardless of your age, situation or lifestyle, we are committed to offering independence  and respect to you while maintaining the integrity of your home. Please call us today at 309.736.774 to talk about your situation or find out more about our services.   

Sincerely,
Debra S. Brandmeyer
