Better Health Scores Funding to Transform Chronic Care: What This Means for You and Your Loved Ones

As a family caregiver, you understand the challenges of managing a chronic condition for yourself or a loved one. It can be overwhelming to navigate the healthcare system, find the right supplies, and stay motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle. But there's good news on the horizon!


A recent development in the world of chronic care management caught our eye here at Golden Companions. Better Health, a company with strong South Florida ties, just secured a significant $14 million investment round. This funding signifies growing recognition of their innovative approach to supporting individuals with chronic health conditions.


So, what exactly is Better Health, and how could it benefit you or your loved one?

Founded in 2019, Better Health focuses on providing comprehensive support for people managing chronic conditions such as diabetes, ostomy needs, and chronic wounds. Their unique model goes beyond just delivering medical supplies. They offer a cohesive care program that incorporates:

  • Peer Coaching: Connect with others who understand the daily realities of your condition. Share experiences, offer encouragement, and learn valuable tips from peers who have "been there, done that."

  • Educational Resources: Receive clear, accessible information about your condition, treatment options, and healthy lifestyle choices. This empowers you to take control of your health journey.

  • Home Delivery of Medical Supplies: Eliminate the stress of running out of essential supplies. Better Health delivers them directly to your door, ensuring you have what you need, when you need it.



What makes Better Health particularly interesting is their focus on improving health outcomes and reducing costs.  This resonates with our core mission at Golden Companions – providing solutions that enhance the lives of seniors while offering valuable support to families.


Here's how Better Health's growth could translate into benefits for you:

  • A More Comprehensive Approach to Chronic Care:  The combination of peer support, education, and streamlined supply delivery has the potential to improve the overall management of chronic conditions.

  • Reduced Burden on Caregivers:  Knowing your loved one has access to a reliable support system and readily available supplies can bring peace of mind and alleviate some of the daily pressures of caregiving.

  • Potential Cost Savings:  Better Health's focus on optimizing health outcomes can reduce the need for hospitalizations and emergency room visits, potentially leading to lower healthcare costs.


While Better Health isn't directly affiliated with Golden Companions, their mission aligns perfectly with our values of promoting well-being and empowering individuals with chronic conditions.


Here at Golden Companions, we offer a range of in-home care services that can complement the support provided by Better Health:

  • Companionship and Emotional Support: Our compassionate caregivers can provide companionship, conversation, and emotional support, which can be especially valuable for individuals managing chronic conditions.

  • Assistance with Daily Tasks: From meal preparation and medication reminders to light housekeeping and transportation,  our caregivers can help ensure your loved one maintains a safe and independent lifestyle.

  • Skilled Nursing Care:  For individuals with complex medical needs, we provide skilled nursing care in the comfort of their own home.


Whether you're considering services from Better Health or Golden Companions, or both, the key takeaway is this: there's a growing commitment to providing innovative and comprehensive support for individuals managing chronic conditions.
