The best care is personal.

It comes from people who know you, love you, and want the best for you. If you're caring for a loved one at home, you may be able to stay close, provide meaningful care, and get paid for your time.

Because when care comes from family, it means everything.

AFL, PCA, or traditional home care, which one is actually right for your family?

If you're trying to figure out how to care for a parent or loved one at home in Connecticut, these programs can sound confusing fast. Here's the difference in plain language:

✅ AFL — a family member lives with and cares for their loved one, and gets paid for it
✅ PCA — more independence, with a hired attendant for specific daily tasks
✅ Traditional home care — professional agency staff, no family caregiver involved

We broke down exactly how each one works, who qualifies, and how to decide; https://ablecares.org/afl-vs-pca-vs-traditional-home-care-connecticut/

Compare Connecticut's AFL and PCA programs vs. traditional home care. See who qualifies, who gets paid, and which option fits your family.

Notice your aging parent or loved one slipping on basic daily tasks? Forgetting meds, letting laundry pile up, or struggling with grocery runs usually isn't just "getting older"—it’s often a sign they're struggling with Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs).

IADLs are the complex tasks required to live independently, like managing finances, cooking, taking care of the home, and keeping up with appointments. When these start to slide, it’s one of the clearest indicators that extra support is needed.

Our latest caregiver guide breaks down exactly what IADLs are, how to spot the early warning signs, and how Connecticut’s Adult Family Living (AFL) Program can help you care for them at home.
