Keep mom and dad at home with in home services

by ElderCarelink

Simply because your mother, father, or loved one may be having some trouble with their daily tasks doesn't mean it is time to rush them out of the house and into a nursing home or assisted living facility. With in-home care services, you can help your loved one remain independent and stay in their home for as long as possible.

 Companion Care. Also referred to as non-medical home care, this category of home-based services offers a variety of options. For example, you could hire a caregiver to visit your loved one once per week or hire them full-time to assist with daily living tasks such as meal preparation or bathing.

 Home medical care. If your loved one requires more constant medical attention, you can hire a registered nurse to live with them or to provide care periodically.

There are numerous benefits to in-home care, from keeping your loved one in a personal environment to helping them maintain their independence. Take the time to research your options, so you can find the right type of care for your elder.
