What our Lee County clients say
“After Hurricane Ian we lost Dad’s primary caregiver. APCH had someone trained and on the SW Cape route within three days. Same person ever since. Steady, kind, knows his routine.”

“I’m a Vietnam vet and the VA paperwork was killing me. APCH handled the CCN authorization and now I have a caregiver four mornings a week, no charge. Wish I’d called sooner.”
Veteran client, Tarpon Point

Common questions about home care in Cape Coral
How much does home care cost in Cape Coral?
Private-pay Cape Coral home care runs $32 to $38 per hour for companion or personal care. 24-hour and live-in packages reduce the effective hourly rate. LTC insurance and VA benefits often cover the full cost. Call (239) 400-4514 for a Cape Coral-specific quote.
Do you cover all of Cape Coral, including SW and N Cape?
Yes. We serve every ZIP across Cape Coral, including the SE flood-rebuild zones, SW Pine Island corridor, and the newer N Cape developments toward Burnt Store. Dispatch is from our Fort Myers office.
How quickly can a caregiver start in Cape Coral?
For most Cape Coral families, the in-home assessment happens within 24 hours and a caregiver starts the next day. Cape Coral Hospital and Gulf Coast Medical discharges are often same-day. Complex 24-hour staffing may take 2 to 3 days.
Are your caregivers employees or contractors?
All caregivers are W-2 employees. Never independent contractors, never a registry. We handle payroll taxes, workers’ compensation, and liability insurance.
What if the caregiver isn’t the right fit?
Call us. We re-match without question and without a fee. Personality fit matters in Cape Coral as much as clinical fit.
Do you accept Medicare?
Original Medicare does not cover non-medical home care. It does cover short-term skilled care after a hospital stay from a Medicare-certified agency. We can refer you and pick up after their service ends.
Are you licensed to operate in Cape Coral?
Yes. A Perfect Choice Home Care is a Florida-licensed home health agency (HHA #299994658) and nurse registry (NR #30211834), authorized across Lee County.
