Understanding Home Care Options for Seniors, After Surgery Care, and More

When you or a loved one need home care assistance, sorting through all your options can become overwhelming. Download this handy guide to learn which questions you should ask to ensure you or someone you love is getting proper in-home care.

Exploring Options for In-Home Care

There are three general ways to hire a person to provide home care support:

1. Home care agencies hire, employ, train, and insure caregivers. They pair caregivers in their employ with clients who contact the agency for caregiving services.
2. Home care registries provide a place for individuals to offer themselves as caregivers. Those in need of care can then browse and hire those independent caregivers.
3. Private hire caregivers are people who perform caregiving services without being tied to a registry or agency. These caregivers often find new clients through referrals from past clients.

When considering options for elderly care at home or in-home care for ill individuals, an agency is your best choice. You and your family deserve a trained and reliable caregiver, and an agency will provide just that. Choosing an agency like Homewatch Caregivers for your home care needs delivers numerous benefits you can’t always count on from other caregiver resources.
