History
Established in 2017.
Barbara Care is a non-medical home care provider located in Lexington, Kentucky. We specialize in providing dignity, love, and exceptional care to our clients. We serve Central Kentucky, offering a range of services that include Personal Care, Companion Care, Respite Care, and Homemaking/Housekeeping Care. Barbara Care is named after my mother and is the inspiration behind the Company. She was a caregiver for over 30 years and battled brain cancer for over 20 years. I was brought up to believe that family comes first, and it often requires us to Love More and Give More of ourselves so that we can heal more.
