Why non-medical in-home care & companionship?
A home is not just four walls and a roof. Home represents family, security and a safe haven. As seniors age, the ability to receive services at home offers many benefits:
- Allows seniors to remain independent and in their own homes as long as possible.
- Provides a sense of comfort in familiar surroundings.
- Enhances quality of life.
- Provides an affordable care option at 1/5 the cost of semi-private nursing homes.
- Expands existing home health care services (including medical visits) at a reasonable cost
- Relieves some of the daily stress and time constraints of loved ones caring for the elderly.
- Provides peace of mind for seniors, their families and friends.
Research has documented a direct correlation between receiving non-medical, in-home care and the frequency of seeing doctors. Seniors who received home care reduced the frequency of doctor visits by 25%.
