For many families, the greatest fear is seeing a loved one sent to the hospital due to a fall, infection, or sudden health decline. Hospitalizations are stressful, costly, and often lead to further complications, especially for older adults. But thanks to advances in technology and proactive care programs, families today have more options than ever to keep seniors safe, supported, and living longer in the comfort of their own homes.
At Hummingbird Care Services, we believe that prevention is the best form of care. That’s why we’ve invested in innovative solutions like our Safety Net Program—a first-of-its-kind initiative in our community. Unlike traditional home care services that only respond after a problem occurs, the Safety Net Program gives us real-time insights into a client’s well-being. These insights allow our team to act quickly, collaborate with physicians and skilled services, and resolve concerns before they escalate. The result? Fewer hospitalizations, fewer falls, and longer independence for seniors who want to age at home.
The difference is measurable. Families enrolled in our Safety Net Program have experienced a 44% reduction in hospitalizations and a 40% decrease in falls and injury-related emergencies. Even more importantly, 85% of participants avoided hospital readmissions in their first 90 days of care. These are not just numbers—they represent peace of mind for families, stability for seniors, and a dramatically higher quality of life. Where other providers wait for problems to arise, Hummingbird takes a proactive approach that keeps our clients healthier and safer every single day.
Technology alone, however, is not enough. What makes Hummingbird unique is how we combine advanced tools with compassionate human care. Every insight we gain is paired with the expertise of our trained caregivers, certified dementia practitioners, and skilled coordinators who know our clients personally. This combination of cutting-edge technology and genuine human connection allows us to see the full picture, address risks early, and provide care that is not only effective but deeply compassionate.
The benefits extend far beyond safety. By preventing hospitalizations and unnecessary trips to the ER, seniors can remain in their homes for an average of 2.5 years longer compared to those without proactive support. Families save time, money, and stress, while seniors enjoy the independence and dignity of living where they are happiest—at home. Our clients consistently report higher satisfaction, with 9 out of 10 families saying they feel more at ease knowing Hummingbird is by their side.
No other provider in the Indian River and Treasure Coast region offers this level of proactive care. With award-winning recognition, including the Best of Florida Award, Best Home Care Agency in Vero Beach, and the Provider of Choice Award for 2025, Hummingbird Care Services is setting the standard for what senior care should be. While others talk about safety, we deliver it—with proven results, innovative programs, and a relentless commitment to helping families thrive.
Hospitalizations should never be inevitable. With the right combination of technology, proactive care, and compassionate expertise, seniors can live safer, longer, and more fulfilling lives at home. At Hummingbird Care Services, we’re proud to lead the way—because your family deserves nothing less.
