Overview of Grand Canyon Home Care

Fifteen years is a long run for a home care agency, and Grand Canyon Home Care has spent all of it serving the Phoenix area from its office at 13201 N 35th Avenue in North Mountain Village. Yakov Yoshuvayer runs it as President and CEO. The office itself sits somewhere genuinely walkable, Walk Score 71.

Round-the-clock availability is the headline here: twenty-four hours, every day, holidays included. Personal care covers the basics, bathing, dressing, toileting, mobility support, alongside medication reminders, meal prep, laundry, and errands.

The agency frames it, along with wellness checks, as central to how care actually gets delivered, not a bonus tacked onto a task list. Scheduling flexes around the client rather than the other way around. Respite care exists too, specifically for family caregivers who need a real break, not just a promise of one.

Money matters, and here’s where it gets more specific than most agencies get: Medicaid coverage runs through Arizona’s ALTCS program, via Mercy Care and Evercare specifically, alongside standard private pay.

Put together, Grand Canyon Home Care is a long-established, always-on agency built around daily practical support and genuine Medicaid access, for clients who need help that doesn’t clock out at 5pm.
