Live your best life with in-home support
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly one-third of all seniors live by themselves. That means that one-third of our senior population is attempting to take care of themselves while suffering from age-related challenges, medical problems, and, in some cases, mental health problems. Many cannot drive to get where they need to go and even struggle with managing their finances and medication.
Though it can be tough to come to terms with asking for and receiving extra support, your quality of life is worth it! You deserve a happy, fulfilling life at all stages.
In-home care services are designed to fit your personal needs. Unlike long-term facilities, in-home support allows you to maintain your own schedule, prepare your own meals, stay in your neighborhood, and continue hobbies around your home like taking care of your garden.
In-Home Care and Maintaining Your Independence
Support services like in-home care can provide valuable services that won’t take away your independence and aid in your ability to care for yourself from the comfort of your own home. Can you imagine walking into a long-term care facility right now with the fear of contracting COVID-19? Some seniors are taking that step when safer, alternative options are available.
Unique, Customized Help While You Continue to Live Your Best Life
In-home care services are designed to fit your personal needs. Unlike long-term facilities, in-home support allows you to maintain your own schedule, prepare your own meals, stay in your neighborhood, and continue hobbies around your home like taking care of your garden. With extra assistance running errands, preparing meals, and even some light housekeeping, you can maintain social distancing and avoid risks inside your home.
When people think about senior support services, they often picture family members of an older person getting together to plan how to take care of their loved ones best. But this isn’t ALWAYS how seniors find support. Many seniors are perfectly happy taking control of their lives and finding support services that are right for them.
