A Place At Home - North Austin has received dual 2025 Best of Home Care® awards for Provider of Choice and Employer of Choice, reinforcing its earlier recognition as Best Home Care Agency in the community-driven Best of Round Rock awards. The national honors, administered by BestOfHomeCare.com and operated by Activated Insights, are based on ongoing third-party surveys of clients and caregivers rather than open voting, highlighting consistent performance over time.
The dual recognition carries significant weight in the home care industry, where caregiver retention directly impacts service quality. The agency's philosophy of "putting care back in caregiving" emphasizes supporting caregivers first, which owners Stacey and Bryan Eisenberg believe enables consistent, compassionate care for clients. This approach has resulted in unusual continuity, with one of the agency's first caregivers still employed after more than two years and multiple family pairs working together on the team.
"These awards really are about the daily work of caring for people in our community," said Stacey Eisenberg, a senior care expert with decades of experience. "They reflect what happens when caregivers are respected and supported." The Employer of Choice designation is particularly meaningful in an industry known for high turnover, as caregiver satisfaction directly influences the stability and trust families experience when receiving in-home care services.
The agency serves families throughout North Austin, Georgetown, Sun City, Cedar Park, Wells Branch, Hutto, Leander, and Round Rock, providing relationship-based care rooted in local connections. The combination of community recognition through the Best of Round Rock award and national validation through the Best of Home Care® awards creates a compelling narrative about how local trust translates into measurable quality indicators. For families seeking reliable care for seniors, these honors provide independent verification that the agency maintains both client satisfaction and a supportive work environment for those delivering care.
The implications of this recognition extend beyond the agency itself to the broader Texas home care industry. In a sector where quality and consistency are paramount for vulnerable populations, the dual awards demonstrate that a caregiver-first approach can yield measurable results in both employee retention and client satisfaction. This model could influence other Texas home care providers to prioritize caregiver support as a strategic business practice, potentially raising standards across the industry.
For Texas families navigating the complex landscape of senior care options, the third-party validation provided by these awards offers tangible evidence of quality when making critical decisions about loved ones' care. The agency's service across multiple North Austin communities suggests that its successful approach can be replicated in various Texas markets, offering a blueprint for how home care businesses can achieve both commercial success and meaningful community impact.
