How much does home care cost in Phoenix, Goodyear, or Buckeye? SYNERGY HomeCare accepts most long-term care insurance providers and Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS). Hourly rates range from $34 to $75, depending on the client's specific needs, level of care required, and the duration of services.

Why choose a professional home care agency over hiring privately? Hiring a private individual makes you the employer, meaning you're responsible for payroll taxes, issuing 1099s, and handling workers' compensation if the caregiver is injured. With SYNERGY HomeCare, we eliminate these risks—our caregivers are thoroughly vetted, fully insured under our agency policy, and backed by a large pool of qualified professionals. If your assigned caregiver is unavailable, we quickly match you with another from our team. We're experts in caregiver matching for reliable, consistent care.
