As seniors age, their ability to live safely and independently at home declines. When this happens, seniors will need proper care to stay healthy and safe at home. There’s always the option to move to a nursing home or assisted living facility, but many seniors prefer in-home care as they get to stay in their familiar environment and maintain some control of their lives.
Family caregivers may step in to provide for their needs, but this can be overwhelming as family caregivers juggle the new responsibility of caregiving with caring for their family and maintaining a full-time job.
