Owned by a family of local miners

In-home care for uranium miners and their families

Family-owned care in Grants and Cibola County. We help RECA and EEOICPA families set up their benefits and get real care at home.

Welcome

Built on family. Rooted in the community. Committed to care.

Our family has worked these mines since the 1960s. We know what the work asks of a person, and what it asks of the family at home. That is why we started Southwest Home Care: to bring dependable, respectful in-home care to the miners and neighbors we grew up with.

We treat every client like family, because in this community, that is what we are.

We had the best care for our father through Southwest Home Care, from the Nurse to the Home Health Aides providing 24-hour care. The Quality and Compassion was outstanding. They became a part of our family.
