In-home care built around your North Fort Myers routine
No two households here look the same. For one it is a single shower visit a few mornings a week in Tara Woods. For another it is full overnight coverage after a discharge from Lee Memorial. Here is what we help with, and every bit of it comes from caregivers who know the SR-78 and US-41 corridors and can get to your door fast.
Conditions our North Fort Myers caregivers support
These are the conditions that bring most North Fort Myers families to us. Our caregivers are trained for them, and our RN-supervised care plans coordinate cleanly with the hospitals and hospice just across the Caloosahatchee in Fort Myers and Cape Coral.
Dementia Care in North Fort Myers
Dementia care in North Fort Myers works best with one familiar caregiver who keeps the day predictable and the home safe. Gentle cueing and redirection bring the agitation down. We work alongside the memory specialists in the Lee Health system across the bridge.
Parkinson’s Home Care
Parkinson’s home care means help with tremor, freezing, and fall risk during transfers and walking, plus reminders to keep medication on time. We move at the slow, steady pace that keeps North Fort Myers clients safe on their feet at home.
Stroke Recovery Care at Home
Stroke recovery care at home picks up where rehab leaves off. After a stay at Gulf Coast Medical Center or HealthPark, we help with mobility, bathing, meals, and the home exercises your therapist assigned, so the progress keeps going between visits.
Post-Surgical Care at Home
Post-surgical care at home is the short-term help that gets you settled after Lee Memorial or Cape Coral Hospital. Wound-care reminders, safe movement, meal prep, and rides to follow-ups, so a hip or knee surgery doesn’t turn into a setback.
Cancer Care at Home
Cancer care at home is comfort, rides to oncology appointments across the river, meal support during treatment, and a steady presence between chemo cycles. We see it often in the 55+ and riverfront communities.
Congestive Heart Failure Care
Congestive heart failure care comes down to the small daily steps that keep people out of the emergency room. Watching weight and symptoms, low-salt meal prep, and staying on top of medications and follow-ups.
COPD & Respiratory Care
COPD & respiratory care means support with oxygen routines, conserving energy, and pacing through the humid days. Our caregivers notice the early warning signs and know when it is time to call the family or the doctor.
Diabetes Care at Home
Diabetes care at home is meal planning, blood-sugar and medication reminders, foot checks, and a routine that holds. It helps a lot for fixed-income clients juggling diabetes alongside everything else.
Hospice Support at Home
Hospice support at home is gentle personal care, repositioning, and a calm, constant presence in the house. We work alongside Hope Hospice so families can spend the time on each other rather than the tasks.
Value and reliability, from people right across the river
North Fort Myers runs on fixed incomes, 55+ communities, and a sharp sense of who is actually local. That is exactly who we built this agency for. Honest pricing, the same faces showing up, and a quick response from our Fort Myers office minutes away.
Honest value for fixed incomes
A lot of folks here live in manufactured-home and co-op communities on a careful budget. We quote real numbers. We don’t require minimum hours, and we won’t lock you into a long-term contract.
Continuity of care
We work to keep the same caregiver on the same days when possible. And a trained backup is introduced to the client in advance, so a substitution never means a stranger at the door.
W-2 caregivers, fully vetted
Our caregivers are our employees. Not contractors, not a registry. Every one of them is Florida AHCA Level 2 background checked, and we are bonded and insured.
Minutes from the hospitals
Lee Memorial, Cape Coral Hospital, Gulf Coast Medical Center, and HealthPark all sit just over the bridge. We coordinate discharges so care is ready the day your loved one comes home.
RN-supervised care plans
A registered nurse builds the plan and reviews it, so personal care, dementia support, and recovery needs all get matched to a caregiver who actually fits the situation.
Neighborhoods & hospitals we serve in North Fort Myers
Our caregivers dispatch from the Fort Myers office just across the Caloosahatchee, over the US-41 and SR-78 bridges. So most North Fort Myers homes are a short drive away, and we can usually get someone there quickly.

Common questions about home care in North Fort Myers
How much does home care cost in North Fort Myers?
Most companion and personal care hours in North Fort Myers land between $30 and $37 per hour, depending on the type of care and how many hours a week you need. Specialized memory care, 24-hour coverage, and live-in care are quoted separately. We never require minimum hours or long-term contracts, and eligible veterans may pay nothing through the VA Community Care Network. Call (239) 400-4514 for an honest quote for your situation.
Do you serve the 55+ and manufactured-home communities, and seasonal residents?
Yes. We are in Del Tura, Herons Glen, Sabal Springs, Old Bridge Village, Tara Woods, Magnolia Landing, and the river communities all the time, and we work easily with seasonal residents and snowbirds. We can set up care for the months you are here and pause it when you head north, with no penalty for stopping.
How fast can care start in North Fort Myers?
Often within a day or two of your first call. After a free in-home assessment, we build the plan and match a caregiver. If your loved one is being discharged from Lee Memorial, Cape Coral Hospital, Gulf Coast Medical Center, or HealthPark, we can coordinate with the care team so help is ready the day they get home across the river.
Are your caregivers employees or contractors?
They are our W-2 employees. Never independent contractors, never a registry referral. That means they are supervised, insured, and accountable to us. Every caregiver clears a Florida AHCA Level 2 background check before working in a client’s home, and we are bonded and insured.
What happens if the caregiver is not a good fit?
Just tell us. We will listen and re-match, no drama. We work to keep the same caregiver on the same days for continuity, and we introduce a trained backup to the client in advance so the schedule holds. The goal is a caregiver who genuinely fits your loved one.
Does Medicare pay for home care in North Fort Myers?
Usually not for this kind of care. Original Medicare was built around short-term medical treatment, so it does not cover ongoing companionship, bathing help, meals, or 24-hour supervision at home. Most North Fort Myers families pay for that through private funds, long-term care insurance, the VA Community Care Network for eligible veterans, or Florida Medicaid long-term care for those who qualify. The exception is doctor-ordered skilled nursing or therapy after a hospital stay, a discharge from Lee Memorial, for example. That short-term care comes from a Medicare-certified home health provider, a separate type of agency from us, and we often work alongside those visits while keeping the daily routine covered. Call (239) 400-4514 and we will sort out which buckets apply to you.
Are you licensed to provide home care in North Fort Myers, Florida?
Yes. A Perfect Choice Home Care is a locally owned, Florida-licensed home health agency, licensed since 2021, operating under AHCA license HHA #299995428. North Fort Myers is in Lee County, and our care is dispatched from our Fort Myers office just across the Caloosahatchee River.
Will Medicaid pay for home care in North Fort Myers?
Sometimes, and the honest answer is that it depends. Florida’s Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Long-Term Care program, the SMMC-LTC waiver, can cover in-home help for eligible seniors, but it hinges on income and a functional assessment. We work with several of the managed-care plans, so the smartest move is to call us with your details. Dial (239) 400-4514 and we will tell you honestly whether it looks like a fit.
Can veterans in North Fort Myers get free home care through the VA?
Many can. We are a VA Community Care Network provider, so eligible vets referred to community care pay nothing out of pocket. There is also the Aid and Attendance benefit, which can help cover in-home care for those who qualify. We handle the authorizations and bill the VA directly, so you are not stuck in the middle of the paperwork. Call (239) 400-4514 and we will check what you are eligible for.
Can someone with dementia stay safely at home in North Fort Myers?
Usually, yes. A steady routine, a few home safety fixes, and caregivers trained in redirection keep a lot of people with dementia safe and comfortable in their own homes much longer than families expect. If wandering or sundowning gets to be too much, we can scale up to 24-hour coverage so nights are watched too. Call (239) 400-4514 and we will talk through what your situation needs.
Is A Perfect Choice a home health agency in North Fort Myers?
Yes. We are a Florida-licensed home health agency serving North Fort Myers, AHCA license HHA #299995428. Our caregivers are CNAs and Home Health Aides, and the work is one-on-one: bathing, meals, dementia support, companionship, respite, veteran care, and 24-hour help for families across Del Tura, Old Bridge Village, and the river communities. We do not provide nursing or therapy visits. If a doctor has ordered those, that short stretch of care comes from a Medicare-certified provider, and we pair up with it while handling the day to day. Call (239) 400-4514 and we will figure out what your loved one needs.
