History

Established in 2014.

It’s personal to us. We founded Assisting Hands Home Care of Potomac to provide peace of mind and relieve the stress of families taking care of loved ones by being there when they cannot be. Assisting Hands Home Care® grew out of a desire to provide seniors, and others needing non-​medical assistance at home, with the option that most people prefer — to remain independent, safe, and comfortable in their own homes. Assisting Hands® is a home care franchise company that emphasizes exceptional customer service and highly personalized in-​home care to meet the needs of our clients. Need Help? Assisting Hands Of Potomac has a caregiver who can be there for you!
