Home Care Services in East Lansing

If you've noticed your loved one needing more help at home than usual, you may be worried that it's time for them to move to a space where they can more readily access support, such as a senior care or the home of a family member. However, seniors don't have to move out of their cherished homes to benefit from help with their everyday activities. They can age in place with the support of a home care assistance provider from Visiting Angels® East Lansing.

Aging in place is the preference for more than 80% of American seniors. Our personalized approach to caregiving will give your loved one the support they need while helping them maintain their favorite activities and daily routines.

Unsure whether it’s the right time to hire home care services for a member of your family? If so, you're far from alone. As older adults gradually lose their independence, it’s hard to know when home care becomes necessary.

Visiting Angels East Lansing can help you and your family find the answer to this question through a detailed consultation. We offer our consultation services at no cost and no obligation to families. This way, you can talk to a home care expert about your loved one’s situation without any risk or pressure.

In the meantime, here are a few points you may want to consider or discuss with other members of your family.

Does My Loved One Need Home Care Services?

Thinking Seriously About Home Care? That's a Sign. In our experience, families rarely discuss home care services pre-maturely. Most families are hesitant to hire these services for a range of reasons. As a result, it's much more likely for families to wait longer than they should to contact a home care company in the East Lansing area.

Care Doesn't Need to Be Disruptive or Expensive. If your loved one is mostly independent but has trouble with activities like laundry and grocery shopping, it's easy to start off with occasional care visits. A short, weekly visit from a caregiver can provide your loved one with the support they need. Meanwhile, your loved one can continue their regular routines, and you can keep care costs affordable.

Family Caregivers Need to Care for Themselves. Today, tens of millions of Americans care for older loved ones. If you're one of these family caregivers, it's important that you have time to care for yourself as well. Caregiver burnout can do serious damage to your physical, mental, and emotional health, and it can prevent you from properly caring for your loved one. If you're starting to feel overwhelmed, we strongly encourage respite care visits.

Learn How Home Care Assistance Can Make a Difference

For elderly adults who need assistance but want to avoid a move away from home, professional caregivers represent a valuable resource. Below are some of the areas in which a home care assistance provider from Visiting Angels East Lansing can improve your loved one's quality of life to not only make aging in place a possibility for them but also make it a resoundingly positive experience:

  • Fall Prevention One of your biggest worries about your loved one aging in place may be the potential for slips and falls at home. A care professional can offer much-needed physical assistance and mobility support during activities such as showering and dressing, or even help with walking and moving between locations, to make aging in place a much safer endeavor.
  • Household Help. You may also be concerned that essential chores will fall by the wayside as your loved one gets older and has increasing difficulty completing basic tasks. A caregiver can help in this regard by tidying up the home and managing basic household routines such as preparing meals, doing laundry, vacuuming, and making beds.
  • Socialization Your loved one's social life may also be a concern that comes to mind when you think about them aging in place. While it is common for seniors to become socially isolated as getting out of the house becomes more challenging, this doesn't have to be the case. A home care provider can interact with your loved one and provide them with emotional support that increases their quality of life and keeps them socially engaged.
