Assisting Hands Home Care offers round-the-clock care and live-in care for older adults and individuals with disabilities in Darien, IL, and surrounding areas. This type of service involves having a licensed caregiver present in the home of your loved one to provide care 24 hours a day.
As people age, the desire to remain in the comfort of their own homes, also known as “aging in place,” has become a popular option among senior citizens. However, some elderly individuals may require assistance to safely maintain their independence and continue living in a familiar environment.
Seniors may require different levels of assistance depending on their circumstances. Some seniors may only require part-time assistance with household tasks, while others may need help with personal care activities such as bathing and dressing. Those dealing with illnesses, chronic conditions, or immobility may require 24-hour care and assistance.
Assisting Hands Home Care can assist if your elderly family member requires constant home care due to an illness or chronic condition. Our 24/7 home care and live-in care services are available to aid seniors who need a caregiver present at all times. Our licensed caregivers are always present in the home of your loved one to provide the necessary care and handle emergencies (See the Full List of Services).
Assisting Hands Home Care can be reached at (630) 407-1932 for 24/7 professional home care and live-in care services in Darien, IL, and nearby locations.
Live-In Caregivers
When families opt for our live-in care services, our caregivers are designated to reside in the home with their elderly loved ones and provide the necessary care. Generally, we assign two caregivers for each client who alternate living in the home for 3-4 day shifts. While in the home, our caregivers take care of all the needs of your loved one, including personal care, transportation, meal preparation, medication reminders, and light housekeeping.
During a typical day, our live-in caregiver will be responsible for:
- Mornings: Our caregiver assists with getting your loved one out of bed and performs personal hygiene tasks like bathing, toileting, and dressing. Additionally, breakfast is prepared for your loved one.
- Daytime: Our caregiver is available for personal care needs and household tasks, such as cleaning, cooking, and medication reminders. They can also provide transportation for appointments and errands.
- Night: Our caregiver will help your loved one with their bedtime routine and ensure they get to bed safely.
You can feel confident that our caregiver is always present to provide care and companionship as needed.
To prepare for a live-in caregiver, clients need to provide a designated sleeping area with at least five hours of uninterrupted sleep each night. Our caregiver will prepare the room and change the bed linens when transitioning to the next caregiver’s shift.
24-Hour Home Care
The primary difference between 24-hour home care and live-in care is that with our 24-hour care services, a caregiver is always awake and alert while in the home. We assign at least two caregivers for clients who choose this service, and they alternate shifts every 8 or 12 hours, guaranteeing that a caregiver is present in the home at all times. Our 24-hour care includes the same services provided with live-in care, and during the night, our caregiver will remain awake and close to your loved one to monitor them.
With 24-hour care, there’s no need to provide a sleeping area or storage space for our caregivers as they will spend their entire shifts awake before alternating. This service is particularly beneficial for seniors with serious illnesses or chronic conditions that require 24-hour monitoring.
