Caretech provides home care in Cheyenne, WY for seniors and for adults of all ages living with disabilities, and our Wyoming office in Laramie serves families all across the city. Most of what we do is everyday, non-medical help at home, like meals, bathing and good company. Our Wyoming team also brings skilled nursing right to the house, so your family can get both kinds of care from one team you already know.
Close to a third of Cheyenne's older residents, 4,126 people aged 65 and over, live on their own. For a lot of families here, that's a mom or dad across town who is doing just fine but would feel better with someone stopping by a few times a week.
Our in-home care in Cheyenne, WY starts with that kind of help and grows with your loved one as their needs change. A caregiver can come by for conversation, errands and outings through our companion care at home for seniors. Bathing, dressing and getting around the house can get harder over time, and our personal care services at home cover those daily routines with respect and dignity. Families caring for someone with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia can lean on our in-home dementia and Alzheimer's care, which keeps the day safe, calm and familiar.
Some loved ones shouldn't be alone at any hour, and for them we offer round-the-clock 24-hour home care. Family caregivers who need a break, for an afternoon or a whole week away, can count on respite care at home while they rest and recharge.

You choose how often we come. Care can be hourly or part-time, overnight with a caregiver who stays awake, or 24/7, and it can run short-term while someone recovers or long-term for ongoing needs.
Home care and home health care sound a lot alike, and families mix them up all the time. Home care is non-medical help with daily life, such as companionship, meals and housekeeping. Home health care is medical care given by licensed professionals, like nurses.
Caretech offers both in Wyoming. Our Wyoming team brings home health care to Cheyenne, WY through skilled nursing at home, and that includes medication management and injections, wound care, IV therapy and infusions, ostomy and catheter care, chronic disease management and pain management support. Your loved one can have a caregiver for the daily routines and a nurse for the medical side, all from the same team.
This care comes from people with deep roots in the state. Caretech acquired Quality Home Health Care, a Wyoming home care provider that has served families here since 2001, and the same caregivers and office team carry that work forward under the Caretech name.
Skilled home health care services are only offered by Caretech in the state of Wyoming, where we are licensed to provide those medical services.
