There are many options to choose from when it comes to your aging parents and one of them is home care. First the family needs to assess the situation to see if your loved one is able to remain in their home alone. If that is an option, the family may want to contact a few different home care agencies to obtain information from the agencies to see if this type of care is suitable for their loved one. The levels of care that non-medical home care agencies can offer can range from companion care; which includes meal preparation, light housekeeping companionship, medication reminders and running errands. Personal care; in which the client may need assistance with bathing, dressing, oral care, hair care and toileting. The hours of service required by each agency is different; the hours can range from 2 hours per day to 24 hours per day depending on the clients needs. The price range may also vary from agency to agency.
