About In-Home Care Services ameriCARE Midlands

a new kind of CARE

We believe in care that serves and supports the whole human person as well as their immediate community. We believe that thoughtful, personalized care has the power to not only maintain but also enrich anyone’s quality of life, no matter what changes they’re facing.

And we believe that care is a two-way street. Our caregivers are true professionals, called to serve others in ways that aren’t traditionally honored or praised by the world as we know it. We recognize their gifts and we support their potential with world-class training and career opportunities.

Recent Client Testimonial

“I called Rachael in a panic, as we needed some respite caring for my ailing mother and no other company was willing/able to get someone to the address quickly. Rachael worked past business hours to secure us some overnight care allowing my father and I some much needed rest. Louise is the angel Rachael sent to us and I cannot even begin to say how amazing she was. She tidied the house and checked on my mother every 30 minutes while we got some sleep. She gently woke me after 11 PM to tell me my mother had passed, and was there for us every step of the way, even calling hospice to alert them of her passing. Louise was so kind, compassionate, knowledgeable. Rachael and Louise were put in my path for a reason – I cannot imagine what this night would have been like without their support a care. Thankful.”

Rachael Hammond ameriCARE Midlands Owner

Rachael Hammond

Owner

Rachael has more than 20 years of experience in the medical field and brings her passion for excellence in patient care to the in-home care discipline. As a registered vascular sonographer in Virginia, Florida, and now, for the past 12 years, in Lexington, South Carolina, she has seen the need for loving caregivers first hand. This witness of need and passion for clients is the driving force behind Rachael.

She understands that each one of us is unique; we have varied backgrounds, different needs, and specific wants. Rachael brings that philosophy to caregiving. She believes that getting to know each client and their families allows us to provide personalized care; care that will provide dignity and respect for the client and peace of mind for their loved ones.

Rachael has seen the need first-hand for in-home care. Rachael served as a caregiver for her mother after surgeries and illnesses while still working and caring for her own family. She came to understand the physical and emotional stress of caregiving while continuing her usual activities and realizes that it is essential for family caregivers to have time to care for themselves as well as their loved ones. Rachael has also seen the benefits of having a loved one who had a compassionate, trustworthy caregiver who wasn’t a family member.

Rachael enjoys spending time with her husband of 20 years, Carl, and their two school-age children. They are members of Saxe Gotha Presbyterian Church. She is an avid runner and enjoys adventures on the lake, traveling, and spending time with family. While originally from Richmond, Virginia, Rachael has made the Midlands of South Carolina her home and loves it here.

He strives to make a difference in the Midlands community by giving families peace-of-mind while keeping their loved ones safe at home.
