What Are In-Home Care Services?
In-home care services, or senior care, often refer to a range of supportive services provided to individuals in their own homes. This typically includes the elderly, those who are disabled, or those recovering from illness or surgery.
Through support with activities of daily living, in-home care services are designed to help people maintain their independence from friends and family while also improving their quality of life.
This type of care includes personal care, such as bathing, dressing, and grooming, support around the house, including meal preparation and light housekeeping, mobility assistance, transportation, and companionship care.
In-home care services are nonmedical and work in conjunction with medical services such as home health care. Our care team works with other care professionals to ensure all medical care plans are followed and communication is seamless.
