About Niklife
Caring for Illinois families, one home at a time.
Niklife Home Care Inc. is a privately owned home care agency in Des Plaines. We care for children, veterans and adults of all ages who need help to live well and independently at home. “Because we care, expect the exceptional.”
Who we are
Niklife Home Care Inc. is privately owned and operated, and serves families throughout Cook, DuPage, Lake, Kane, Will and Winnebago Counties.
Our registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, home health aides, homemakers and caregivers care for medically fragile children, veterans, older adults and adults of all ages. We serve both English-speaking and non-English-speaking families.
Nursing care follows a plan approved by each client's physician, and our aides work under the direct supervision of a registered nurse. Every member of our team is expected to treat you and your family with the utmost respect.
