Are you concerned about your ageing mother or father, uncle or aunt, grandmother or grandfather? Do you find it difficult to set aside specific time towards their personal care? Do not feel guilty. No doubt you are doing your best to be there for your elders in any way you can in the fast-paced and over committed life that you lead in today’s busy day and age. You might consider setting up your elderly loved one in an old-age home. But what they consider home is where they currently reside and chances are that you would be pulling them away from their neighborhood friends, church, and social group, and their cherished memories of life in the house they have lived for so many years now. There is a solution to this problem and the solution is termed ‘in home care for seniors’. That is correct; there are various services out there which serve your elderly loved one right in their homes and all at a cost that is nominal and affordable as well.
These caregivers provide a wide spectrum of senior home care services that includes personal care in the form of help with daily chores like bathing, washing your hair or getting dressed; homemaking in the form of helping with routine household chores like washing clothes, cleaning the dishes, mopping the floor and gardening; cooking or delivering food and the most important of all healthcare in the form of skilled nursing, physical or respiratory therapy, psychiatric care and home health aides. You also have a plethora of senior caregiver support groups that render support for issues regarding old age, companionships, diseases, grief support and many others that fall into the relevant categories pertaining old age.
If you are someone who is separated by a distance from your senior loved ones you might want to consider arranging for them what is called a live-in help that would ensure that there is help 24/7 for your elderly who needs constant attention as advised by the doctor. A well trained professional stays with your loved one and takes care of household chores, medical care, meal preparation and other services that are not related to health care. It may cost more to have round-the-clock services for in home care for seniors but depending on the situation it is the most appropriate level of care, especially if you think your older relatives are not capable of taking care of themselves to a great extent. On the other hand, it is rather economical to hire professional for in home care for seniors for a couple of hours a day as compared to moving into an old-age home. You could hire a particular agency or an individual. While the former is a bit more expensive, it ensures that anyone entering your elderly loved one’s home is thoroughly screened, extensively trained, insured and bonded, matched to your preferences, professional and reliable. An agency will handle the payroll payrolls of the senior caregivers and provide coverage for sick or absent caregivers.
