Trusted Parkinson's support for Cape Coral families
This isn't just a service we offer — it's part of our own family's story, and Cape Coral is part of that story too. My father, Tom, founded Abby Services in 1997. Years later, he became a client of the very company he built after developing Parkinson's disease. He also lived with Lewy body dementia, and he passed in 2024. He was treated at Cape Coral Hospital and spent time at Hope Hospice House in Cape Coral. He also got real benefit from the exercise program at the Hope Parkinson Program, now the Lee Health Parkinson Program.
My mom was his primary caregiver. She reluctantly accepted the support of a private caregiver referred through Abby Services, but I think she benefited greatly. I saw firsthand how hard it can be for people to accept this kind of help, and I see the same thing in many Cape Coral families: the person living with Parkinson's gets the attention, while the family member holding everything together gets worn down.
That experience shapes how we match Cape Coral families with a caregiver today. Parkinson's affects everyone differently — tremors, balance, mobility, and cognition can all progress at different speeds — so there's no one-size-fits-all caregiver. We're a nurse registry, not a home care agency — we refer independently employed caregivers, and you and your physician stay in the lead on care decisions, not us.

Cape Coral Parkinson's care — common questions
Many do. Tell us what you're dealing with, such as tremors, freezing, balance, or swallowing, and we'll introduce caregivers whose backgrounds fit. You review each caregiver's profile and decide who's right for your loved one.
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons families call. A caregiver can give steady, hands-on support with walking and transfers. Not every fall can be prevented, but having someone there and paying attention gives you the best chance of catching problems early.
Parkinson's and dementia often overlap, as they did for my father. Let us know what you're seeing and we'll look for caregivers comfortable with both. See also our dementia and Alzheimer's support in Cape Coral.
Yes. Many Cape Coral families start with a few hours a week so the family caregiver can rest, run errands, or get to their own appointments. Care can grow from there if needed. See respite care at home.
Yes. Many families start with a few hours a day and add coverage as Parkinson's progresses. Overnight, live-in, and around-the-clock arrangements are all common as needs increase.
Families typically see about $30 to $35 per hour for 6 to 12 hour visits. Your cost depends on the caregiver you choose and the schedule you need. Care arranged through Abby Services is private pay. Medicare and most health plans do not cover ongoing in-home help, and hospice benefits generally do not pay for it. Long-term care insurance may, and we can help with the paperwork.
