We were proud to have Debbie Packard represent Acti-Kare at Valley Medical Center’s Case Management Resource Fair in Renton!

Deb spent the day connecting with case managers, social workers, discharge planners, and other community providers who help patients and families prepare for a safe transition home.

These relationships matter. When someone is leaving the hospital, families often need practical support with personal care, meals, mobility, transportation, medication reminders, and safety at home.

Thank you to Valley Medical Center and Retirement Connection for bringing local healthcare professionals and community providers together. And thank you, Deb, for representing Acti-Kare so well!

Meet the team behind the care.

While our caregivers are the heart of what we do, this office team works every day behind the scenes to support them, and the hundreds of families who trust us with their loved ones.

Scheduling, recruiting, client care, community outreach, billing, and human resources - everyone here plays an important role.

We're thankful for this incredible group and everything they do to help seniors live safely independently and comfortably in their own homes.

Meet Semhal: always kind, always smiling. We are so proud to celebrate her as our June Caregiver of the Month!

06/24/2026

For years, we've had the privilege of working alongside some incredible social workers, care managers, healthcare professionals, senior living communities, attorneys, and other community partners throughout the greater Seattle area.

We are deeply thankful for that trust.

We also want to thank everyone who has supported us during the Best in the PNW voting. The generous support has been really humbling!

Celebrating our June Caregiver of the Month: Semhal!
Semhal has become one of the most requested caregivers on our team. Kind, friendly, always smiling — she jumps right in from the moment she walks through the door.

She holds great conversations, provides skilled hands-on care, and works seamlessly with clients across companion care, dementia support, mobility, and transfers.

One client said it best: "Semhal is fantastic, I would love to have her help us again"

And our team? We wish we could clone her. 💙

Proudly serving families in Edmonds, Seattle, and across King, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties.

When you show up to a partner visit and accidentally match outfits, you know it's meant to be. Our own Debbie Packard had the best time running into Kim Ayers, Dietary Director at Edmond Post Acute — and clearly they both have impeccable taste. We're so grateful for the relationships we get to build in this community. Thank you, Edmonds Post Acute, for always welcoming us! 🧡

Most families caring for someone with dementia have never heard about the Medicare program may cover 72 hours of in-home care a year, at no cost.

It's called the GUIDE program, and the qualifications are simpler than people expect — a moderate to severe dementia diagnosis and Traditional Medicare (not Medicare Advantage).

This short video breaks down how it works in about a minute. If you're caring for a parent or spouse with dementia in King, Snohomish, or Pierce County, this one's worth a watch.

Most families caring for a loved one with dementia have never heard of Medicare's GUIDE program.

It's a benefit that launched in July 2024 — and for families in King, Snohomish, and Pierce Counties who qualify, it can mean up to 72 hours of no-cost in-home respite care each year.

We are set up to provide the in-home care for GUIDE-enrolled families in our area, and we put together a full resource page and a downloadable family guide to help families understand what it is, who qualifies, and how to get started.

If your loved one has a dementia diagnosis and is on Traditional Medicare (not Medicare Advantage), this is worth reading. The link is in the comments.

Feeling overwhelmed as a family caregiver?

That constant worry, the sleepless nights, the feeling that it is 100% on you all the time... those are signs that you may need support.

And asking for help does not mean you are giving up on your parent.

It means you are being practical, thoughtful, and honest about what your family needs.

“𝘈𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘳 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.”

So many adult children wait until they are completely burned out before reaching out. But the truth is, support is most helpful when you bring it in earlier than you think.

Caregiving is not only about caring for your loved one.

It is also about caring for yourself, your family, and your ability to keep showing up with patience, love, and strength.

In this clip, we talk about:
- Why caregiver overwhelm is a sign to pause and reassess
- Why asking for help is not failure
- How outside support can protect the whole family
- Why reaching out earlier can make caregiving feel more sustainable
