When a loved one requires around-the-clock support to remain safe, comfortable, and independent, 24 hour care at home becomes an essential option for families. At SYNERGY HomeCare of Santa Monica, we provide reliable, continuous care through rotating caregivers who are available day and night. One of the most common questions families ask is about the cost of 24 hour home care, and how it compares to other care options.

Understanding the cost is a key part of planning for long-term care. It helps families feel confident, informed, and prepared to make decisions that prioritize their loved one’s health and comfort. Whether your loved one is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, or experiencing memory decline, 24 hour care at home can provide the full-time support they need while allowing them to stay in familiar surroundings.

What Affects the Cost of 24 Hour Home Care?

The cost of 24 hour home care depends on several factors. At SYNERGY HomeCare of Santa Monica, we customize care plans to each client, which ensures you only pay for the level of care required. Some of the most common factors that influence pricing include:

Care needs and complexity

Basic supervision and companionship typically require less oversight than specialized care for dementia or chronic illness
Care plans that include medication reminders, fall prevention, or memory care may require more advanced caregiver training

Hourly rates and scheduling

24 hour care is billed on an hourly basis, with shifts that ensure continuous coverage
Our hourly rates generally range from twenty five to forty dollars per hour depending on care needs and scheduling

Number of caregivers required

Multiple caregivers are scheduled in rotation to avoid fatigue and ensure consistency of care
This model provides full coverage without relying on a single caregiver to remain in the home

Time of day and holidays

Some hours, such as overnights or holidays, may carry a slightly higher rate due to scheduling demands
Our team provides clear pricing with no hidden fees or surprises

Location and local caregiver availability

The cost of care in Santa Monica reflects local living costs and the demand for qualified caregivers in the area
We maintain a reliable, vetted team of local caregivers who know the community and serve with professionalism and heart

How Much Does 24 Hour Home Care Cost in Santa Monica

The typical cost of 24 hour home care at SYNERGY HomeCare of Santa Monica ranges from six hundred to nine hundred sixty dollars per day, depending on care complexity and required services. This cost reflects continuous care provided through scheduled shifts with professional caregivers who ensure the client’s comfort and safety at all times.

While 24 hour care is an investment, many families find it to be more flexible and personal than residential care facilities. You receive one-on-one attention, custom care plans, and the peace of mind that your loved one is being supported in the place they know best.

We offer free consultations to provide a detailed quote based on your family’s goals and care needs. There are no long-term contracts or hidden fees, and care can be adjusted as needs change.

Why Families Choose 24 Hour Home Care Over Other Options

Choosing 24 hour in-home care allows your loved one to remain in a familiar, comfortable environment while receiving the care they need day and night. This option provides personalized attention and eliminates the stress of moving into a facility.

Families often choose 24 hour care when:

Their loved one is unsafe to be alone, especially overnight
Mobility issues, memory loss, or chronic illness require consistent supervision
They need a break from the demands of full-time caregiving
Their loved one has returned home from the hospital and needs short-term or long-term recovery support

At SYNERGY HomeCare of Santa Monica, we work closely with families to make the transition to 24 hour care smooth, respectful, and reassuring.
