The elderly and adults with serious illnesses and disabilities may be unable to reside at home alone because they require attentive care or aid in an emergency. Family members may find it impossible to stay with their loved one 24 hours a day, which could become frustrating for them. It is also risky to leave individuals who require continual supervision and support alone. Our licensed caregivers will look after your loved one and never leave them alone.
24-hour Home Care
A caregiver is always available, alert, and ready to respond to any situations with 24-hour home care, which differs from live-in care. Your loved one will always have a caregiver available for them, and they will be rotated out every eight to twelve hours. The caregiver will be alert the entire shift so that they can assist if required, and they will not require a place to sleep in your loved one’s house.
People with chronic diseases that require 24-hour care would benefit the most from this style of care, and your family will have peace of mind knowing your loved one is well cared for.
Live-In Caregivers
Live-in caregivers are typically the best option for individuals who require round-the-clock care during the day and nighttime. This form of care involves two main caregivers who alternate residing in the house for three to four days. One of the caregivers is constantly present in the house to assist your loved one with personal care and any extra assistance they may require in the morning, afternoon, or evening.
If you choose Assisting Hands Home Care for live-in care, we will send a representative to meet with you and your loved one to determine the level of assistance they require. We will also create a care plan to make sure that all their requirements are covered and that someone is constantly present in the house. Our live-in caregivers will assist with meal preparation, personal care, medication reminders, and light housekeeping.
Our live-in caregiver assists your loved one with their morning routine, including dressing and taking a shower. They are also available to assist with any extra requirements, such as light home cleaning and food preparation. Our caregivers will be available at night to assist your loved ones with their bedtime routing and to ensure that they go to bed on time.
Our clients request live-in care because they have recently come back from the hospital or have lost a spouse or close friend and are now living alone and in need of assistance. Our professionals care for them with kindness and respect.
Preparing for Live-In Care
A separate room for the caregiver to sleep and store their belongings needs to be provided. When the caregiver’s three to four-day shift is completed, they will clean and prepare the room for the following caregiver.
