About Synthesis

Care built around the whole person — and the whole family.

Synthesis Care is a family-founded home care company. We combine hands-on caregiving with our own Guardian care operations platform so nothing about your loved one's care is left to memory, paperwork, or luck.

Our Approach

Balanced Care Method®

Our care philosophy is built on the habits shared by the world's longest-living populations. Every care plan we write balances four pillars — because aging well is never only a clinical question.

Healthy Nutrition

Balanced, familiar meals planned around medical needs, appetite, and culture.

Physical Activity

Safe daily movement that protects strength, balance, and fall prevention.

Sharp Minds

Conversation, routine, and cognitive engagement built into every visit.

Social Ties

Connection to family, faith, and community — not just tasks completed.

Support

Synthesis Family Support

Families don't hand off care — they share it. Our family support program keeps you informed, supported, and never guessing.

  • A named care manager who knows your family by name
  • Visit notes and schedule visibility, not vague call-backs
  • Guidance on benefits, authorizations, and private pay options
  • Caregiver-family check-ins and respite planning
  • Escalation path available 24/7 for urgent changes
Our Story

It started with one family's search for better care.

Synthesis Care began the way most home care stories do — with a family trying to keep someone they loved safe at home, and finding that the system made it harder than it had to be. Missed shifts. Care plans nobody read. Answers that depended on who happened to pick up the phone.

We built the company we wished we'd been able to hire: caregivers who are trained, supported, and paid fairly, backed by an operating platform that tracks every assessment, authorization, and visit in one place.

Today that platform — Guardian — runs our entire operation, from the first intake conversation through scheduling, verified visits, and compliance. It is why our families get straight answers, and why our caregivers walk in prepared.
