Is Homecare The Best Option For My Loved One?

It can be challenging to give elderly family members the love, care, and attention they require during retirement, especially if they suffer from severe health conditions. If that’s the case, they will typically require assistance from a professional so they can live comfortably.

One option is to choose assisted living where the senior family member is put into a residential home. However, assisted living can be expensive, and the nurses at the facility are usually looking after multiple clients at the same time. Therefore, an alternative option to consider is homecare.

Advantages of homecare
There are several advantages to homecare for both the senior in need of assistance and their family members. It offers peace of mind and ensures the elderly individual is well taken care of. Some of the other benefits of homecare include:

1. Aging in place: The client can stay in their home where they are comfortable.

2. One-on-one care: The caregiver exclusively looks after the client.

3. Increased level of safety: The client is less likely to be exposed to illnesses and diseases.

Clients also get to maintain their independence as:

a. Their belongings are close by in their home.

b. They get to choose what activities they want to do.

c. They can have people visit them at any time of day.

d. They can eat what they want and when they want.

As you can see, there are many benefits to using home care. But, while home care allows seniors and disabled people to live with dignity, many people have a tough time adjusting to a stranger taking care of them. That’s why it is essential to work with a reputed company that employs compassionate caregivers.

At Care For You LLC, we are a private home care agency specializing in comprehensive services customized to meet the needs of our clients. Our flexible aging care services offer clients and their family’s peace of mind as we conduct thorough background checks and drug tests before hiring caregivers.

Everybody we hire is either a certified nursing assistant (CNA) or has passed the state PCA certification test. We also give eight hours of initial training as well as sexual harassment and mandated reporter training to our staff.

What do we offer?
We provide an opportunity for clients to meet caregivers to ensure that our employees are a good fit or we match them with someone else. Our personal care services include companionship, homemaking, and aging life care management for clients in the comfort of their own homes. We also arrange transportation for medical appointments, grocery shopping, or even for visits to a friend’s house.

What do we charge?
We charge a variable rate that considers the type of service required, the number of hours needed, and the duration of service. The cost is usually disclosed and discussed before starting the service. So all one has to do is come up with a card plan schedule.
