You can hear it in Marilyn McKnight’s voice right away: for her, caregiving is not a transaction, it’s a calling. Marilyn is the president and CEO of Peace Love And Glory Home Care LLC, and she joins us during Women’s History Month to talk about what it really takes to serve families with dignity, consistency, and faith. She shares how years of experience across roles in home care and health care prepared her for the step that changed everything: opening her own agency in Bishopville and building a team rooted in peace, love, and giving God the glory.

We get practical and specific about non medical home care services. Marilyn breaks down what caregivers can do in the home, from bathing and dressing to meal prep, light housekeeping, errands, laundry, medication reminders, and companion care. She also explains who home care can support, including older adults as well as clients with autism, disability, special needs, DDSN services, VA related support, respite care, and private pay clients. If you’ve ever searched for home care, senior care, or caregiver help for a parent, this conversation helps you ask better questions and spot the difference between a “title” and true passion.

We also tackle the confusing part: home care versus home health, Medicaid versus Medicare, and how the Medicaid waiver process can limit or expand hours through Community Long Term Care COTC and plans like Healthy Connections. Marilyn shares how families sometimes supplement Medicaid covered hours with private pay, and why trust and respect matter as much as scheduling.

Finally, she invites the community into her 10-year celebration, designed as a free praise and worship night with free admission and a free meal, focused on unity and a reset for the heart.
