This work is dedicated in loving memory to our dear friend, mother, grandmother, registered nurse, mid-wife, storyteller, and master gardener, Bonnie Frontino. We are eternally grateful for all the ways she made the world a better place. Rest in peace and power. (1946-2016)
Compassionate Elder Care | Private In-Home Senior Support
Hamsa Hands provides private, non-medical elder companion care in Hendersonville, Asheville, and surrounding Western North Carolina communities.
We offer relationship-based, in-home senior support designed to preserve dignity, independence, and meaningful connection for adults 65 and older.
This is not agency rotation care.
This is steady, professional presence.
A Different Model of Elder Care
Our approach to senior companion care is rooted in the belief that aging deserves the same reverence and attentiveness as any other life stage.
Whether your loved one lives independently, in assisted living, or is transitioning home after hospitalization, we provide consistent, non-medical support tailored to their routines and preferences.
We specialize in:
🌿 In-home elder companion care
🌿 Senior companionship visits
🌿 Family caregiver respite support
🌿 Post-hospital transition presence
🌿 Appointment accompaniment
🌿 Light household and meal support
🌿 Emotional steadiness and relational continuity
Serving families throughout Henderson County, Buncombe County, Asheville, and Hendersonville, we prioritize calm, structured care that honors autonomy.
Who We Serve
Our elder companion care is ideal for:
🌿 Seniors who wish to age in place
🌿 Families living out of state seeking trusted local presence
🌿 Adult children supporting aging parents
🌿 Individuals needing non-medical in-home elder support
🌿 Caregivers requiring reliable respite
We do not provide medical or nursing services. Instead, we offer steady, dignified support that complements clinical care.
The Hamsa Hands Difference
Hamsa Hands operates on a limited-client model to ensure depth, reliability, and continuity.
Founder-level care is provided directly by Sophie, bringing decades of therapeutic experience, trauma-informed presence, and family systems awareness into the elder care setting.
As our practice expands, carefully selected companion providers will uphold the same standards of professionalism, discretion, and relational integrity.
This is boutique senior care — grounded, personal, and trustworthy.
Begin With a Private Consultation
All services begin with an in-home elder care consultation in Hendersonville, Asheville, or surrounding areas to assess:
🌿 Care needs
🌿 Home environment
🌿 Family goals
🌿 Schedule structure
🌿 Fit and alignment
Because elder support is not one-size-fits-all.
Hiring Philosophy ~ Becoming a Hamsa Hands Companion Provider

We are cultivating a care collective.
As Hamsa Hands grows, companion providers will be selected based on character, emotional regulation, and relational maturity — not simply availability.
We Prioritize:
🌿 Calm nervous systems
🌿 Professional boundaries
🌿 Reliability and punctuality
🌿 Clear communication
🌿 Respect for elder autonomy
🌿 Experience with aging adults
🌿 Background checks and references

We look for individuals who understand that companion care is not task performance — it is steady presence.

🌿 Complete an interview and screening process
🌿 Undergo background checks
🌿 Participate in orientation and training
🌿 Maintain liability coverage
🌿 Uphold confidentiality and ethical standards
🌿 Operate within defined non-medical boundaries
We intentionally limit caseloads to prevent burnout and ensure quality of care.
