Introduction: Care You Can Trust, Right Where You Live

Finding care for an aging parent or loved one isn’t just about services — it’s about trust.
Families want to know that the person entering their home will treat their loved one with the same compassion, patience, and respect they would.

That’s exactly what we believe at Maxona Care.
As a locally owned and community-based home care provider, we’re proud to support seniors and families across Waterloo, Cedar Falls, Hudson, and all of Black Hawk County with reliable, personalized care that feels more like family than a service.

In a world of national franchises and corporate call centers, our promise is simple: real people, real care, and real connection.

1. Locally Owned. Personally Invested.

Maxona Care isn’t a franchise or an out-of-state operation — we’re part of the community we serve.
We live here. We raise our families here. We care for the same people you see at church, the grocery store, and local events.

That local connection means:

  • We understand the needs of Iowa seniors and families.

  • We respond quickly when care needs change — no red tape.

  • We personally vet, train, and support every caregiver.

When you call Maxona Care, you’re speaking with a neighbor who truly cares — not a corporate scheduler halfway across the country.

2. Compassion at the Core of Everything We Do

At the heart of Maxona Care is one guiding principle: care that comes from the heart.
Every service we offer — from personal care to companionship and chore assistance — is grounded in compassion, respect, and patience.

Our caregivers are more than helpers; they’re companions, listeners, and encouragers.
We take time to understand each senior’s personality, preferences, and stories — because care should feel personal, not procedural.

“My mother’s caregiver from Maxona Care feels like part of our family. She knows Mom’s routines, her favorite tea, and even how to make her laugh on hard days.”
— Linda M., Waterloo, IA

3. Professionalism You Can Rely On

Trust begins with professionalism.
Every Maxona Care team member is:

  • Background-checked, insured, and trained before entering any home.

  • Held to the highest standards of punctuality, communication, and respect.

  • Supervised by local leadership to ensure consistent, quality care.

We don’t take shortcuts when it comes to your family’s safety.
Our caregivers arrive prepared, focused, and dedicated — because professionalism is the foundation of peace of mind.

4. Personalized Care Plans for Every Family

No two families — or seniors — are the same.
That’s why we build customized care plans for each client, adapting to changing health, mobility, and emotional needs.

Whether you need a few hours of companionship or daily personal care, we’ll design a plan that fits your lifestyle and budget.
And if needs change, adjustments are quick and easy — no long-term contracts or rigid policies.

Maxona Care specializes in:

  • Personal care (bathing, dressing, hygiene)

  • Companionship and social engagement

  • Chore and homemaking services

  • Dementia and Alzheimer’s support

  • Respite care for family caregivers

  • Postpartum and disability assistance

Everything we do is designed to make life easier, safer, and more fulfilling for the people who matter most.

5. Strong Communication with Families

We believe great care begins with great communication.
Families never have to wonder what’s happening — we keep you informed with regular updates, transparent reports, and an open line to our local team.

If there’s a concern, question, or schedule change, you’ll hear from us immediately.
We treat every client’s family like our own — with honesty, accessibility, and complete transparency.

6. Continuity of Care: Familiar Faces, Consistent Support

One of the biggest frustrations families have with large agencies is the constant rotation of caregivers.
At Maxona Care, we know how important consistency is — especially for seniors with dementia, anxiety, or limited mobility.

That’s why we match clients with caregivers who stay.
This allows trust and familiarity to grow naturally over time, reducing stress and building meaningful relationships.

7. Safety and Quality Are Always First

Your loved one’s safety is our highest priority.
We follow rigorous safety protocols, including:

  • Fall-prevention training for caregivers

  • Infection control and hygiene standards

  • Regular home safety assessments

  • Emergency preparedness and 24/7 on-call support

Our approach ensures every client receives dependable, secure care — from the first visit to the hundredth.

8. Flexible and Affordable Options

We know that affordability matters.
That’s why we provide flexible scheduling and transparent pricing — no hidden fees, no unexpected bills.

Families can choose from:

  • Hourly visits

  • Part-day or full-day care

  • Weekly and monthly subscriptions

We also help explore Medicaid Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers, VA Aid & Attendance benefits, and community funding resources to make home care accessible for all Iowa families.

9. Rooted in Community and Connection

Maxona Care is more than a business — we’re part of the fabric of Black Hawk County.
We partner with local healthcare providers, senior centers, and organizations such as:

  • Northeast Iowa Area Agency on Aging (NEI3A)

  • Iowa Department of Health and Human Services

  • UnityPoint Health Waterloo

  • Black Hawk County Public Health

These partnerships help us stay connected, informed, and equipped to provide holistic support for our clients and their families.

10. Testimonials from Local Families

We’re humbled by the stories families share about how Maxona Care has made a difference in their lives:

“After Dad’s surgery, we needed help fast. Maxona Care stepped in the next day. Their caregiver was respectful, dependable, and kind. We couldn’t have done it without them.”
— Mark T., Cedar Falls, IA

“I love that they’re local. You can call and actually talk to someone who knows your situation — not a robot. They truly care.”
— Sarah J., Waterloo, IA

These stories remind us why we do what we do: to serve our neighbors with compassion and integrity.
