A Place At Home – North Austin Wins Second Consecutive Best of Round Rock Award

A Place At Home – North Austin, serving Williamson and Travis Counties, has earned the Best of Round Rock Award for the second consecutive year. This recognition, determined by nearly 50,000 community votes, highlights the agency's trusted, relationship-based senior home care across Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Pflugerville, and Austin. The award underscores the importance of reliable home care services in an aging population, where quality and consistency directly impact seniors' well-being and families' peace of mind.

Co-owners Stacey Eisenberg and Bryan Eisenberg founded the agency with a mission to "put care back into caregiving," blending professional expertise with local commitment. Stacey's background includes leadership roles with the Alzheimer’s Association, service on the Adult Protective Services Volunteer Board, and contributions to the Aging Services Council. Bryan, a Round Rock Chamber Ambassador and host of the Rock Solid Round Rock Podcast, emphasizes community engagement, showcasing leaders who strengthen Central Texas. Their combined efforts address a critical need: personalized care that respects dignity and fosters connection, which is vital as demand for in-home services grows.

The agency's specialized dementia and Alzheimer’s programs, led by Stacey and her team, provide advanced training for caregivers. A continuity-of-care model ensures seniors see familiar faces, promoting comfort and stability at home. Flexible care options, from 2-hour shifts to 24/7 support, cater to diverse needs, reflecting the broader industry shift toward adaptable, client-centered solutions. This approach matters because dementia care requires specialized skills to manage cognitive decline safely, reducing hospitalizations and improving quality of life.

Community initiatives further distinguish A Place At Home – North Austin. Through a partnership with the ShareTheWill Foundation, the agency has provided over 30 power mobility chairs to local veterans, combining clinical insight with community support. This "Community Compassion in Action" initiative, detailed at https://www.aplaceathome.com/north-austin, demonstrates how care extends beyond clients to benefit the wider community. For veterans and families in need, such programs address mobility barriers, enhancing independence and reducing caregiver strain.

The award's significance extends beyond recognition; it signals trust in a sector where reliability is paramount. Stacey Eisenberg noted, "Winning this award twice tells us the community feels our heart. Families trust us with the people they love most and that trust means everything." Bryan added, "Round Rock is home. We’re proud to grow with a community that believes in compassion, connection, and care that truly matters." Their comments highlight how local businesses can drive social impact, setting standards for elder care amid rising healthcare costs and an increasing senior demographic.

Expansion efforts, including a new Round Rock office and a dedicated training lab for caregivers, align with industry trends toward scalable, quality-driven services. As populations age globally, agencies like A Place At Home – North Austin model how community integration and specialized training can address complex care needs, influencing broader healthcare systems to prioritize in-home support over institutional settings.
