Behnaz T., Home Instead Farmington Hills, MI
At Home Instead Farmington Hills, Behnaz T is known for bringing comfort and a smile to every home visited. Behnaz comes to us with a background in i have over 25 years of experience as a nurse and midwife in iran, where i provided comprehensive care in a variety of settings, including maternity, elderly care, and community health. i am currently pursuing a phd in nursing at the university of british columbia okanagan (ubco), further deepening my research knowledge.
since moving to canada, i have completed additional training through home instead, specifically focused on caregiving for older adults. i have been working as a caregiver, gaining valuable local experience in supporting seniors with daily living activities, medication reminders, mobility assistance, and companionship. i bring a compassionate, respectful, and culturally sensitive approach to every client i support.. With 14 months at Home Instead, Behnaz has built relationships rooted in trust, compassion, and shared joy.
For Behnaz, the reward is in the connection. "What I love most about caring for older adults is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships through trust and communication. Many seniors carry rich life experiences and wisdom, and I truly enjoy listening to their stories and learning from them. I take the time to communicate clearly and respectfully, which helps create a safe and trusting environment where they feel heard and valued. It's very rewarding to see how a simple conversation, a kind gesture, or consistent support can make a real difference in their well-being and sense of dignity," Behnaz shares. Through these shared moments, Behnaz has learned valuable life lessons, noting, "Working with older adults has taught me to slow down, value the moment, and understand that emotional support is just as important as physical care. A client once told me, "It's not always what you do, but how you make someone feel that they remember." That reminded me that taking the time to truly listen and show respect—even during simple tasks—can have a deep impact on someone's sense of dignity and well-being."
Behnaz's daily goal is simple: ensure every client feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Skilled in i feel especially skilled in providing compassionate support for individuals living with dementia. i focus on creating a calm, respectful environment where the individual feels safe and understood. i am also very strong in offering companionship. i believe meaningful social connection is essential for emotional and mental well-being, especially for older adults who may feel isolated. i enjoy spending time with clients—listening, talking, walking, or doing simple activities that bring joy and comfort., Behnaz finds joy in the details of each visit. "Knowing I've made a positive impact on someone's day is what makes this work so rewarding. My favorite part of a typical day at Home Instead is the one-on-one time I spend with clients—especially the meaningful conversations and small moments that build trust and connection. Whether it's sharing a laugh, listening to their stories, or simply sitting together for companionship, these interactions remind me how important human connection is. I also enjoy the routine of helping clients feel comfortable and supported in their own homes, whether through personal care, meal preparation, or just being a reliable presence," Behnaz says of a typical day.
Behnaz praises the local team for their dedication and communication. "What really makes our Home Instead office stand out is the constant support and encouragement we receive from the team. They are always there when you need help—whether it's answering a quick question, offering guidance in challenging situations, or simply checking in to see how things are going.
The ongoing training opportunities help me feel confident and well-prepared in my role, and the office truly values our efforts. They take the time to recognize and appreciate the work we do, which is very motivating. That kind of support makes a big difference and reminds me that I'm part of a team that truly cares about both the caregivers and the clients," Behnaz notes. "One thing I'm really proud of is how well our local Home Instead team is managed. The leadership is strong, organized, and truly respectful in all their communication. They take the time to understand each caregiver's individual situation and offer support when it's needed. I also appreciate that payments are always made on time, which reflects their professionalism and reliability. Working with a team that values you and treats you with respect makes a big difference in how confident and motivated I feel in my role."
In every way, Behnaz reflects the heart of caregiving: consistency, connection, and the quiet pride of knowing you've made someone's life better today.
Helpful FAQs
If you're wondering whether it's time to get a little extra help at home, you're not alone. We talk with families across City every week who are asking the same question. Sometimes the signs are subtle—a few missed medications, more isolation, or a change in hygiene. Other times, it's a sudden shift after an illness or hospital stay.
At Home Instead, we've helped families recognize those signs and build a care plan that supports independence—not takes it away.
Here are some common signs it might be time to consider in-home care:
- Missed medications, meals, or appointments
- Challenges with bathing, dressing, or mobility
- Increased forgetfulness or signs of memory loss
- Withdrawal from social activities
- Stacks of unopened mail or unpaid bills
- Family caregiver stress or burnout
The good news? Help doesn't have to mean moving out. Our Care Pros help older adults stay safe and supported right in their own homes.

Still unsure? A care consultation is a great place to start. We'll listen, answer your questions, and help you explore your options—with no pressure or obligation.
If you're doing your best to support a loved one at home, it's normal to wonder if bringing in help means giving something up. But in our experience working with families in the City area since foundingYear, we've seen the opposite: in-home care can help you get back what matters most—quality time, peace of mind, and space to breathe.
Here's when home care might be the right step:
- You're juggling caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being
- Your loved one's needs are growing beyond what you can manage alone
- You're noticing signs of burnout, frustration, or fatigue
- You want a consistent, trusted partner to rely on
Home Instead Care Pros provide support that fits your routine—not the other way around. Whether it's meal prep, a walk, or help getting to appointments, our care is designed to enhance—not replace—your role.
You don't have to wait for a crisis. Most families who start care with us say they wish they had done it sooner.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer—but if your loved one wants to stay in their own home, in-home care can be the most personal, flexible, and reassuring option.
In City, staying home isn't just about comfort—it's about staying connected to what matters.
In-home care vs. assisted living
Assisted living can be great for those who want a communal setting and are ready to relocate. But if your loved one wants to stay at home, in-home care offers:
- One-on-one attention in familiar surroundings
- A flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle
- Support with meals, mobility, personal care, and companionship
- Help from Care Pros who get to know your loved one—building trust and routine
In-home care vs. hiring a private caregiver
Hiring an independent caregiver can seem less expensive—but it comes with risk. As the employer, you'd be responsible for payroll, insurance, and coverage when they can't show up.
With Home Instead, we handle everything:
- Professional hiring, training, and supervision
- Background checks, insurance, and 24/7 backup support
- Personalized matches and no long-term contracts

Here's what sets our City Care Pros apart:
- They're trained and trustworthy. Each Care Pro goes through a thorough background check, drug screening, and extensive training—including how to support Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chronic health conditions.
- They're employees—not contractors. That means we handle taxes, scheduling, and supervision. We also provide liability insurance and workers' comp, so you're fully protected.

- They show up, and we've got your back. If your regular Care Pro can't make it, we'll send a qualified backup—no scrambling on your end. Our 24/7 support line means help is always a call away.
