About us | Trusted In-Home Care in Kearney, MO

Every visit from Lighthouse Home Care is built on a foundation that stretches back over three decades in Missouri senior living. Founded by Maddie and Brad Diekmann, our family has cared for hundreds of neighbors and friends, first in our local nursing home, now through in-home support throughout Kearney, Liberty, Holt, and the surrounding area. We understand the balance families need: safety, independence, and peace of mind. Our approach is simply to treat your loved ones like our own. With no weekly minimums and a commitment to real, reliable relationships, we make it easier for families to trust that their loved ones are safe and comfortable at home.

Maddie Diekmann’s earliest memories are of helping residents at her family’s nursing home, sharing stories, lending a hand, and learning the true meaning of respect. This upbringing shaped our philosophy: quality care is more than a service, it is a promise to treat clients with dignity and warmth. Now, Lighthouse Home Care brings that legacy of institutional experience into local homes, offering a level of stability and expertise that new agencies simply cannot match. Our hands-on care is always delivered by professionals you can rely on, with the owners involved in every aspect. We provide the stability families want and the compassionate touch every senior deserves.

Choosing care for a loved one is never easy, especially in a market where turnover and inconsistency are common. That is why our family remains directly involved, ensuring every client receives the same dependable service we would expect for our own parents. Our no weekly minimum policy means you get the help you need, without being locked into long contracts. Whether your family needs a few hours of companionship, hands-on personal care, or ongoing support to remain independent, we are here, day or night. Our service area covers Kearney, Liberty, Holt, Excelsior Springs, and nearby communities. Your trust matters to us, and we earn it every day.
