Home Care Service

​

In-home care, also known as home care, is nonmedical care provided in the client's home. It includes custodial care for elderly people or special needs and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as eating, bathing, and providing medication reminders. Home care aides also provide companionship, socialization, and cognitive stimulation for seniors. Family caregivers oftentimes use home care services as a respite when they need to travel, work, or attend to other personal errands. 

The assistance of home care aides allows many elderly adults to remain at home when they are not ready to relocate to a residential care community. It's also a good option for those who just need some assistance and are otherwise independent, as the amount of care can be personalized for each individual's needs, from one afternoon per week to 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
