As a provider of in-home elder care, it is our responsibility to help you understand what in-home elder care is, its pros and cons, and how in-home elder care compares to assisted living facilities when it comes time for you to choose the right senior care services for you or someone you love.
With senior in-home care, your elderly loved one can remain in the place where he or she is most comfortable, and where everything is familiar.
For the elderly, especially those who have dementia, remaining in their own familiar surroundings and receiving in-home care, benefits their health, their outlook and their general well-being. Removing an elderly loved one who has dementia from his or her home to an assisted living facility can take years off his or her life.
With in-home elder care, seniors benefit from the safe, healthy environment of their own home. Unlike in assisted living facilities, rapid spread of disease is not a concern in an individual's home. Seniors, particularly those who suffer from certain chronic conditions, are more prone to catching diseases and the consequences can be serious.
Keeping homes clean and comfortable for disease prevention and to promote feelings of comfort and security is important.
Our in-home senior care professionals customize activities for every one of our clients. We listen to your recommendations about what your loved one likes and wants to do and we tailor our time with them to promote health and enjoyment.
Our caregivers care for the individual, in his or her own space, finding ways to make sure that they are comfortable, happy and supported.
One-on-one care is an important part of senior in-home care services. This kind of personal care sets in-home care apart from assisted living facilities.
Personalized attention like this is unique to in-home elder care; assisted living facilities simply cannot provide services designed with that kind of personal attention for every senior in their care.
Our in-home caregivers make sure that clients have the opportunity to get outside and enjoy the world as much as they are able. We also are able to bring our elder care clients to doctors' appointments and to run errands as needed.
While we are huge proponents of in-home care, we understand that there can be some challenges associated with in-home care. For starters, costs of in-home elder care can be high, particularly if your loved one needs a lot of care and you are looking to hire an in-home care giver for many hours per day.
Senior in-home care does not offer the same kind of immediate opportunities for socialization that an assisted living facility can offer. Our caregivers bring clients to senior centers and other activities.
We, together with our senior clients, need to make an effort to take advantage of opportunities to socialize because, with in-home care, those opportunities are not built right into their days.
