Live-In or 24 Hour Elder Care

Live-in or 24-Hour Care Allowing our Seniors to “Age in Place” in Their Homes

Sometimes, the in-home assistance you offer is not enough for your senior — primarily if they have specialized care requirements, mobility limitations, or a chronic illness.

Live-in or 24-hour care can serve as a temporary solution for seniors recovering from surgery or returning from rehab. Both services can allow you or other family members to take a much-needed break.

Professional elder care provides essential assistance for older adults on an hourly, overnight, 24-hour, and respite care basis. Care plans include various services that meet your loved one’s needs, including personal care, hygiene, housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, medication reminders, and more. Kind Human Senior Care also offers  dementia care and Alzheimer’s care.

Here are some signs indicating a switch to 24/7 care at home is needed:

• Decreased agility and/or mobility due to aging, stroke, or chronic condition

• Family and friends unable to provide care due to a move or change in circumstances

• Feeling isolated or overwhelmed caring for themselves alone

• Incontinence or difficulty with toileting

• Increased confusion due to advancing dementia or age-related cognitive decline

• Increased or frequent falls or trips

• Mobility concerns and challenges with assistive devices

• Requiring assistance with meal preparation, eating, or drinking

• Returning home after hospitalization or rehabilitation

• Wandering around and away from the home

The Difference Between Live-In And 24-Hour Care

Although “live-in” and “24-hour care” may sound the same, each has different terms and arrangements. Understanding the differences will help you determine the best choice for your senior’s specific needs and requirements. Please contact Kind Human Senior Care to discuss your need for care and support.
