In-Home Support That Feels Like Family - Coming Soon to Sacramento and Placer Counties!

Aging at home should feel safe, supported, and comfortable – no matter your health challenges – so you or a loved one can thrive with in-home care in Sacramento and Placer Counties throughout every stage of life. Institute on Aging’s IOA at Home is here to make that possible.

 

We provide compassionate, professional in-home caregivers trained to support older adults. Whether your loved one needs help a few hours a week or 24/7 support, we deliver care that promotes independence, dignity, and peace of mind.

What Makes IOA at Home Different?

Exceptional People, Exceptional Care

We know many families come to us after feeling let down by rushed, impersonal care. At Institute on Aging (IOA), we reject that approach. Our caregivers are carefully selected, highly trained, licensed and bonded. Supported by a professional team with decades of experience in aging services, our caregivers consistently rank IOA one of the best places to work, and our Support at Home services have won the Home Care Pulse’s Best of Home Care: Employer of Choice award annually since 2021. What’s more, the home care services we provide receive national awards, including both the Home Care Pulse Leader in Excellence and Home Care Provider of Choice awards annually since 2021, and The J. Weekly Reader’s Choice Home Care Provider in 2022, 2024, and 2025.

 

Backed by Institute on Aging’s 40-year reputation for compassionate, dignity-focused senior in-home care, our caregivers provide the personalized support your loved one deserves – whether it’s help at home, companionship, or specialized dementia care.

5 stars!?!? Forget that - it’s more like 7 stars!!! All of the IOA caregivers have been more than professional, empathetic and willing to do anything to care for my wife. They have done everything to accommodate us and I could not ask for more. They try 100% and are my first choice when it comes to my wife's needs. You don't need any other agency or group.

IOA’s assistance has been a godsend to me. You are fast and professional, and even for a small bit of assistance like I need, you respond as if I were a high paying customer.

A Non-Profit With a Purpose

As a mission-driven nonprofit, every recommendation IOA makes puts people first – not profits. We reinvest in programs that benefit older adults and their families, and we offer financial transparency and guidance to help you navigate care costs.

Innovative, Integrated Aging Support

IOA at Home is more than in-home help – it’s your gateway to a full continuum of aging services offered through Institute on Aging. From care management to dementia support, engaging with your community or just getting some emotional support, our holistic model means your care can grow with you as your needs continue to change. We will never leave you to navigate aging alone.

The IOA program representatives I encountered were encouraging and positive. This is important because this process of aging does not come easily.

You don’t just get a caregiver – you gain a care partner who understands your family’s journey.
