We are 1st Choice

The ingrained love of service for the sick and elderly population is the fundamental driving force that motivated the owners of 1st Choice to establish the Company in 2008. Ever since, our company’s approach to caregiving is to bring about the healthy fusion of the physical and spiritual aspects in our clients, and exemplify our passion for genuine care.

The 1st Choice Advantage

1. We're local
1st Choice is a Chicagoland-based agency. Getting in touch with us will never require being routed to a national office. Our care coordinators are always a phone call away when it comes to pressing issues.

2. We're professional
1st choice boasts a strong team of professionals with backgrounds in nursing, business management, pastoral ministry, community outreach and education, all of whom are in close and constant contact with our caregivers through training and supervision.

3. We offer free consultation
Are you making a decision that involves several family members? We would be happy to sit down with you and discuss options, at a time and location that is convenient to you.

4. We've got you covered
Our agency is certified by the Illinois Department of Public Health, as well as licensed and bonded by the Illinois Department of Labor. Our caregivers are screened thoroughly, which includes an extensive criminal background check.

5. We look for a perfect match
Our consultation includes a client assessment, which we use to find a compatible match from our diverse pool of caregivers. Our staff undergoes intercultural and interpersonal communication training to further enhance the quality of service.

6. We're flexible
Do you need someone to look after mom or dad while you attend a party? What about a week-long conference out of town? Will you have a different work schedule

in the next month? We are able to serve your long-term needs, but we can certainly accommodate your short-term needs, too.

7. We listen and take action
An advantage of being a smaller operation is our attention to detail. We welcome feedback, but also constantly check with our caregivers and clients on how we can serve you better.
