The Helms family behind Overture Home Care keeps their focus on helping Parker County residents live independently and safely

In the seven years since Denise and Rob Helms of Parker County founded Overture Home Care to provide local residents with a more personal level of care so that they can age with dignity and as much independence as possible, they've been proud to watch their business and their family grow together.

“Denise and I made the decision to launch a home care business focused on caring for the elderly in their home, which is their number one desire — to age in place,” Rob said. “Denise has a long history of experience in the senior care arena. In the geriatric business as a registered nurse, she spent 30 years working in skilled nursing, hospice, and home health care and it seemed like a good transition.”

“As people age, it becomes difficult to remain independent,” Rob continued. “We help people with a wide range of services. Our professionals do a customized plan of care specifically for each client, with everything from assistance with bathing and dressing, eating, light housekeeping, and errands. Then we also do chronic illness support for people with conditions like diabetes or for folks that may be suffering with Alzheimer’s, and we provide care for people with Parkinson’s or Multiple Sclerosis, and stroke recovery. In addition, we do quite a bit for people who are trying to overcome an illness that resulted in a hospital stay, whether it’s surgery or a cardiac event, something where they need a little help for a short period of time at home.”

Recently, the Parker County contingent of the Overture Home Care family has grown to include not just Denise, Rob, and former McAnally Intermediate School principal Zach Tarrant, who serves as Overture Home Care Executive Director, but also Denise and Rob's grown children: son Austin Helms, who serves as Operations Manager and daughter Alex Helms, who serves as Intake Coordinator.

To continue growing and providing the highest level of service, Overture has moved swiftly to address the challenges and rising costs facing our communities. Overture has increased wages across the board, instituted weekly payments and added quarterly bonuses as well as referral bonuses to their compensation packages. They have also added an onsite skills lab and provide essential Dementia Live® education to all new hires. 

In the wider community, Rob, Denise, Zach, Austin and Alex are all active in charitable organizations and events such as Aledo Children’s AdvoCats, the Thanksgiving Trot, Wilson’s Warriors, and Hearts of Hope.

Overture would like to assist you and your loved ones. They offer a complimentary consultation to assess the home care needs of each client. As a family-oriented business, they understand the challenges that families face, and encourage family members to participate in this process.
