What Is Home Care?
Home care provides older adults with the opportunity to age comfortably in their own homes, supported by professional caregivers. These caregivers offer non-medical assistance to promote independence and safety, tailored to the specific needs of each individual.
Depending on the needs of your loved one, home care services may include:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Running Errands
- Light Housekeeping
- Meal Preparation
- Medication Reminders
- And More
Care can be provided on an hourly basis, a few times a week, or around the clock (24/7), depending on the level of support required.
Understanding Companion Care, Personal Care, and Home Health Care
- Companion Care: Ideal for seniors who need social interaction and companionship to combat feelings of isolation, anxiety, and depression. This type of care focuses on emotional support and engagement.
- Personal Care: For those needing more hands-on assistance with daily activities, personal care includes help with grooming, dressing, bathing, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. It does not require a prescription.
- Home Health Care: This involves medical services provided at home and requires a doctor's prescription. Unlike home health care, personal and companion care do not need a prescription.
When to Consider Home Care
Home care may be beneficial if you are the primary caregiver and find it challenging to provide the necessary level of physical and emotional support. It allows you to manage other responsibilities, such as work and family, while ensuring your loved one receives the care they need.
