In the growing neighborhoods of Shelby Township, families want to keep a parent safe and independent at home for as long as possible. Great Lakes Care Services helps make that happen, with local caregivers providing home care, personal care, and respite across the township.
Shelby Township sits in the greener, newer stretch of northern Macomb County, its subdivisions spread between M-53 and the mile roads and bordered by the woods and water of Stony Creek. Many of the families who built homes here over the past few decades are now watching a parent grow older, and the question on their minds is how to keep Mom or Dad thriving at home rather than moving them somewhere new.
Great Lakes Care Services is here to answer it. We provide non-medical home care throughout Shelby Township, with local caregivers and a coordinator who knows the community. Each plan is built around the individual rather than a template, taking into account how they live, where they are starting to need help, and what the family can manage on its own. As needs shift over time, the plan shifts with them, so your loved one can stay comfortably at home.
Awake caregivers covering the full twenty-four hours through rotating shifts.

Your contact knows Shelby Township and personally manages your loved one's care, reachable directly rather than routed through a distant call center.
Background checks, reference verification, and a practical skills assessment all happen before the first shift, with continued training that includes dementia care.
If a caregiver cannot make a shift, arranging the fill-in is our responsibility, not one more worry for your family.
Begin small and scale up, or adjust the type of support as needs change. You are never locked into a fixed contract.
It starts with a conversation. We take in your situation, answer your questions, and lay out the realistic options, with no pressure to commit on the spot.
We match your loved one with a well-suited caregiver and generally start within 24 to 72 hours, staying involved with oversight and regular check-ins.
Yes. We provide in-home care across the whole township, from the Van Dyke and M-53 corridors to the neighborhoods near 23, 24, and 25 Mile Roads and the areas around Stony Creek, across the 48315, 48316, and 48317 ZIP codes.
There are real advantages to starting a little early. A few hours of help each week lets your loved one build trust with a caregiver, puts experienced eyes on the situation, and makes it easy to scale up smoothly when the time comes, rather than scrambling during a crisis.
Respite care gives a family caregiver reliable time off by having a professional take over for a set period, whether a regular weekly block or a longer stretch, so you can rest and recharge while your loved one is cared for at home. It works best built into the routine from the start.
No. Personal care is non-medical, hands-on help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility. Our caregivers do not perform nursing or clinical work, though we can help coordinate with medical providers when it is needed.
For most families, care can start within 24 to 72 hours of the first call. If a hospital discharge is involved, we can often coordinate with the discharge team so support is ready the day your loved one comes home.
