Understanding the broader landscape helps families make informed decisions. For example, per the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services, per-capita healthcare spending in Delaware increased by 9.1% in 2023 (to about $10,588) over the previous year, well above the target benchmark of 3.1% (Timothymastro, 2025).

At Affordable Home Care Delaware, we are aligning with these trends: investing in technology to track visit outcomes, offering flexible service windows, enhancing caregiver skill sets, and integrating social-wellness support (e.g., transportation to community events, engagement programs).

It’s important for families in Delaware to understand the difference between non-medical home care and home health services.

Affordable Home Care Delaware encourages every client and family to have a “weather-plan” in place: a backup power or lighting source, a list of contacts (including our team and local services), an up-to-date medication list, an emergency kit, and clear communication about how caregiving visits will be handled if roads are difficult or services are delayed.

In Delaware, non-medical home-care providers support clients with tasks like grooming, meal preparation, errands, transportation and companionship—but these services differ from skilled medical care.

At Affordable Home Care Delaware, our caregivers, coordinators and support staff are more than in-home helpers—they are community stewards. They engage with the Delaware community in meaningful ways.

At Affordable Home Care Delaware we believe home-care services are not isolated visits, but part of a community ecosystem.

The home-care market in Delaware is facing workforce challenges.
