What is Live-In Home Care?
Today's seniors are getting savvy about aging,
and they've realized that even as their ability
to care for themselves decreases, a nursing home
isn't their only option. One excellent choice
that many seniors are making? Live-in home care.
Live-in home care allows a senior to continue
living comfortably at home while a live-in
caregiver helps take care of many of the tasks
that make living alone so difficult.

Help With Personal Care Tasks
No one wants to think about then they're no
longer able to take care of their personal care
tasks. Getting dressed in the morning, fixing
their hair, brushing their teeth this task that
most people take for granted until they simply
aren't able to do them anymore. Many
caregivers are also able to assist with taking
medications and other medically-necessary tasks.
Whether it's due to a faulty memory that can't
hold on to whether or not their teeth have been
brushed that night or a physical inability to
take care of these essential tasks, having helped
at hand can be a lifesaver.

Peace of Mind at Night
Nighttime is the hardest time for many seniors
who are on their own. The risk of falls is
greater at night, especially in the middle of the
evening, when they're trying to shuffle down the
hall to the bathroom in a hurry. A live-in
caregiver provides the peace of mind that can
only come from
knowing that there's someone in the house who
will hear it if they fall and call out for help
There's no need to wait for help to come from
miles away with a live-in caregiver instead,
that help is in the next bedroom.

Help With Light Cleaning
A live-in caregiver isn't a maid. Most of the
time, they aren't going to take care of the
deep-cleaning tasks. As seniors grow older,
however, even basic cleaning can feel like a
tremendous weight on their shoulders. From
hauling that laundry basket full of clothes into
the laundry room to wrestling the vacuum cleaner
on the floor, there
of tasks that seem to become more difficult with
every passing day. A live-in caregiver can help
with these tasks, keeping the house clean enough
to live in instead of allowing it to
deteriorate.

Help With Meal Preparation
Many seniors find that cooking for one or even
two is simply too much effort. Once they can no
longer visit restaurants on their own, they find
themselves reaching for something simple a
sandwich, a microwave bowl of soup, Live-in
caregivers can help provide healthier
meal options,
preparing healthy, easy to warm meals for the
hours when they won't be on duty.

Help With Meal Preparation
Live-in caregivers provide companionship,
assistance, and security for many seniors. When
loved ones aren't available to help take care of
the day-to-day tasks of living, live-in
caregivers can step in and provide the assistance
that many seniors need. It's a wonderful
opportunity that allows many seniors to
continue aging in
homes, remaining there for much longer than they
would have been able to otherwise.
