Elderly Assistance at Home
What is widely viewed as the best and most viable delivery of health care in America? The answer…approximately 90 percent of infirm and elderly individuals have been found to prefer home care over comparable institutional care.
Benefits of Home Care
What are some of the benefits to seniors remaining in their own homes?
Home care and living assistance is delivered – as you would expect – at home. Dorothy, the character in The Wizard of Oz, said it best: “There’s no place like home.” Certainly, this is a statement that most people would wholeheartedly agree with. There is nothing like the comfort and familiarity of being cared for in the comfort and familiarity of one’s own home. Seniors value their homes. Like all of us, they also have an ingrained road map with the physical layout of the home…how the hallway leads into the kitchen; the width of the stairway; how to get in and out of certain chairs, or the living room couch.
Home care helps keep families together. Compare this to taking an elderly person away from their loved ones. There can be a significant void in the home environment. At no time is family more important than during times of illness.
