Helene Healthcare was founded with one simple belief: Every person deserves to age and live with dignity, comfort, and love.
Your Family is Our Family
Every person deserves care that feels personal. At Helene Healthcare, we believe in more than just assistance. We believe in companionship, trust, and creating an environment where individuals can thrive. Whether your loved one needs help with personal care, meal preparation, mobility support, or simply a compassionate companion to brighten their day, our caregivers are here to serve.
Who is Helene?
Our name comes from a woman who embodied compassion, service, and resilience: Helene. She cared for others with a selfless heart, and her example became the guiding light for how we approach caregiving today. Helene Healthcare is not just a business; it is a promise to carry forward that same spirit of kindness in every home we enter.
We saw firsthand how difficult it can be for families to balance everyday responsibilities with the needs of a loved one who requires extra care. We also saw how much peace and joy it brings when the right caregiver steps in someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely invested in the well-being of their client. That’s why Helene Healthcare was created: to be that source of peace, to lighten the load, and to ensure that no family ever feels alone in the caregiving journey.

How We Ensure Your Needs are Met
When choosing a home healthcare provider, one of your primary concerns is the quality and reliability of care. It’s important to know that home health agencies that accept Medicare are held to national standards by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). These standards, known as “quality measures,” track an agency’s performance in critical areas such as improving a patient’s mobility, managing daily activities like bathing, preventing hospital readmissions, and ensuring patient safety. This data provides families and case managers with a transparent way to compare different agencies and make an informed decision based on proven outcomes, offering peace of mind that you are selecting a provider committed to high-quality, effective care.
For those covered by Health First Colorado (Colorado’s Medicaid program), the state offers a comprehensive Home Health Program designed to provide necessary medical care within the comfort of your home. This program covers a range of essential services delivered by certified home health agencies. These services typically include skilled nursing care for medical needs, physical and occupational therapy to restore function and independence, speech therapy to address communication or swallowing issues, and the assistance of a home health aide for personal care. This traditional model is ideal for individuals who require professional medical oversight and a structured care plan managed directly by a licensed agency.
In addition to the traditional agency model, Colorado provides a more flexible, self-directed option through its In-Home Support Services (IHSS) program. This empowering program is designed for Medicaid clients who want to take an active role in managing their own care. Under IHSS, the individual or their family can hire, train, and supervise their own caregivers to assist with personal care, meal preparation, and daily living activities. This unique model allows for a highly personalized approach and can even provide a way to compensate family members or trusted friends for the care they provide, fostering a comfortable and familiar environment for the person in need.
Ultimately, selecting the right path for home healthcare in Colorado involves matching your loved one’s specific needs with the available programs and quality standards. As you explore options, rest assured we use the CMS quality measures to ensure needs are met. From here, we hope you decide on a structured, agency-directed services of the standard Home Health Program to take care of your loved ones needs. By understanding the different frameworks, you can confidently choose a solution that best supports your loved one’s health, independence, and well-being.
