In-home care is among the most requested services in our society. In the last few years, the emergence of in-home care agencies, in almost every city in the country, has created a new service industry meeting an ever growing demand – the desire to remain living at home. In-home care agencies render a range of companionship, supervision and personal care services in the comfort and convenience of a person’s own home making it possible for them to remain living at home rather than move to a facility.
The personal, one-on-one, non-medical care and assistance for their elderly loved ones is what most families need, but it’s the ‘peace of mind’ and assurance they get from these agencies thats at the heart of what’s really driving demand. In-home care from a professional agency is appropriate whenever a person prefers to stay at home but needs ongoing care that cannot easily or effectively be provided solely by family and friends. More and more people, electing to live independent, non-institutionalized lives, are receiving in-home care services through an agency, as their physical and cognitive capabilities diminish. Most elderly seniors want to age independently at home and not burden their family. In-home care from an agency makes that possible.
