How 24-Hour Home Care Works

While many people might assume 24-hour care and live-in care are the same, there are important differences that are worth knowing. Generally speaking, a live-in care provider lives in the home of the person they are caring for, as the name might suggest. This means the caregiver has time to sleep, eat meals, and take breaks as needed. 24-hour care is when continuous care is provided by several caregivers, working in 8- or 12-hour shifts. This is preferable in cases where a senior needs constant monitoring, particularly if they suffer from dementia or Alzheimer's and wake up several times throughout the night.

Visiting Angels New Braunfels offers professional, compassionate 24-hour care to seniors who need it. Your senior's Angel will rotate in and out with other caregivers to ensure that your aging loved one is constantly looked after and has everything they need, whether it's during the afternoon or in the middle of the night. We will ensure they won't wander and can provide on-site mobility support for toileting and hygiene, which is particularly helpful after a surgical procedure where they need extra help and may need frequent trips to the bathroom.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

When is 24-hour care the best option?

24-hour care can be incredibly helpful if you have a senior who lives at home but is suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's, as they may likely get up several times during the night and be confused or may even wander. It can also be helpful for seniors who have just been discharged from the hospital after a surgical procedure or extended illness, as they may need several trips to the bathroom during the night and require assistance to safely do so.

What's the difference between 24-hour care and live-in care?

As the name suggests, a live-in care provider lives in the home of the person they are caring for, and they are generally given the time to sleep, eat meals, and take breaks as needed. 24-hour care is when continuous care is provided by several caregivers, working in 8- or 12-hour shifts, to ensure that the person receiving care is always monitored and there is help always available at any given moment.

How do I know that my senior will be cared for at every moment of the day?

We will work with you to determine a schedule of rotating caregivers to be absolutely sure that your loved one will never spend a moment alone and will always be able to receive the assistance they need at any time, day or night.

How much does 24-hour home care cost?

Generally speaking, the range is typically $30-$40 per hour, but premiums may apply for overnight care, particularly on weekends and holidays. You can learn more about the costs for in-home care here, as well as get more information on ways to help pay for it.
