What is Home Care?
What is home care?
Home care allows seniors to receive help with activities of daily living (ADLs) within the comfort of their own home. Standard home care offers companionship and support with daily activities. Services including nursing assistance may be available through home health care providers.
Benefits of home care: Home care allows seniors to remain in their homes while having regular company and professional care. Aside from enjoying the comfort of familiar surroundings, elders can benefit from several other aspects of home care.
Companionship: A major benefit of home care is that it offers one-on-one companionship. Some home care aides will plan in-home activities — such as reading aloud, playing games, or simply sitting and talking — to keep elderly parents engaged. They can tailor meaningful care services to the unique preferences and needs of your elderly.
Help with activities of daily living: In-home caregivers provide seniors with assistance for personal care tasks as well as helping out around the house. It’s typical for a caregiver to help with:
– Meal preparation
– Housekeeping
– Transportation
– Bathing
– Bathroom assistance
– Dressing
– Grooming
Customizable care: You can decide what in-home caregivers focus on based on your elderly parents’ needs and lifestyle. It’s easy to customize care services. For example, if your senior is social, regular transportation to events and activities can be organized as part of the caregiver’s routine. If someone prefers to stay at home and would rather have more help with cooking or cleaning, in-home caregivers can arrange that, as well.
