Rooted in Southwest Georgia, built for the families who live here

South West Georgia Homecare began at home. Our owner, Justin Atkins, grew up alongside a brother with cerebral palsy and watched his mother carry the weight of that care largely alone — with no one to tell her what help existed, which programs her son qualified for, or where to turn next.

What help she did find was often worse than none at all. Caregivers arrived late or not at all, changed week to week, and too many of them treated the work as a shift to get through rather than a family to look after. The cost of that landed on a mother who was already stretched past her limit.

So we built the agency that family needed: local coordinators who answer the phone and point families to the resources they are owed, caregivers who are screened and held to a real standard, registered-nurse oversight on every plan, and documentation families can actually see.

Today we serve seniors and recovering adults across Dougherty, Lee, Worth, Terrell, Mitchell, Calhoun, and Baker counties — and we measure ourselves on how quickly we answer, how long our caregivers stay, and how well families sleep at night.
