Advantages of In-Home Caregiving
It is natural to explore a variety of options when a senior needs help with everyday tasks. Options for senior care can include moving in with a family member or transitioning to an assisted living community. While these solutions work for some families, they can require significant lifestyle changes.
For many seniors and their families, home care in Gig Harbor, WA, is an ideal option because it allows seniors to continue their retirement comfortably in their own homes. Other advantages of choosing in-home caregiving include independence, personalized care, and flexibility.
Independence
It is important that seniors maintain their independence through retirement, even if they need a little support with everyday activities. In-home care allows them to retain as much independence as they want while also easing the burden of completing tasks that have become difficult.
Personalized Care
One of the major advantages of in-home care is that every senior gets dedicated, one-on-one attention. This type of personalized service simply isn’t possible in senior living communities. Visiting Angels provides thorough personalized home care plans for every client, ensuring that all needs are met in a way that is comfortable for the long term.
Flexibility
Choosing a care option like moving in with a relative or transitioning to an assisted living community does not preserve much flexibility. In-home care allows seniors to have total control over their services, their schedule, and their caregiver.
As the senior’s needs or preferences change, so can their services. Clients of Visiting Angels are not locked into a specific plan — it can be changed at any time.
Cost-Effectiveness
Even seniors who have planned meticulously for retirement may experience financial stress at one point or another. In-home senior care services are often more affordable than transitioning to a full-time assisted living community.
In addition, the flexible nature of in-home care means that you can adjust services up or down as your financial situation changes.
How Visiting Angels Works
Finding long-term senior care for a loved one can seem like an overwhelming task. At Visiting Angels, we have a process in place that makes finding care simple and stress-free. The first step is an in-home consultation to determine needs and preferences.
During a consultation, a trained staff member will get to know you and become familiar with your daily schedule and where support is needed. They know what questions to ask to accurately assess what level of support is most appropriate. After the consultation, we develop a proposed schedule that fits within your budget.
After a schedule is agreed upon, we will match you with a caregiver who best aligns with your needs as well as with your personality and personal preferences. We aim to find the perfect match so you can form a long-lasting bond and feel totally comfortable with your caregiver.
As you start working with your caregiver, we are always here as a resource. Whether you have questions about your services or you need to change your plan, we are ready to help.
