FAQs

Home care refers to a range of healthcare services provided in the comfort of a person’s home. This type of care is typically provided to individuals who are recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery, or who have a chronic health condition that requires ongoing care.

Home care services can include medical care such as wound care, medication management, and skilled nursing care, as well as non-medical care such as assistance with activities of daily living, housekeeping, and meal preparation. The goal of home care is to enable individuals to remain in their homes for as long as possible while receiving the care and support they need to maintain their health and wellbeing. Home care can be provided by a variety of healthcare professionals, including nurses, therapists, and home health aides.

Live-in care is a type of home care in which a caregiver lives with the individual receiving care in their home. The caregiver provides 24-hour care and support, typically for a period of several days to several weeks at a time, and then takes time off while another caregiver takes over.

Live-in care is often a good option for individuals who require constant supervision and support due to a chronic health condition or disability, but who would prefer to remain in the comfort of their own home rather than move to a nursing home or assisted living facility.
