Active Care
Aging in place can be a long process. Active Care is tailored for individuals who don’t require caregiving services in their homes but could benefit from regular care touchpoints to monitor their overall well-being. This level of care allows clients to remain at home while providing regular communication with a care coordinator, family members, and healthcare providers.
Client engagement is fostered through Homewatch ConnectTM. This technology allows for virtual home care visits, during which a care specialist can monitor the person’s condition and observe for signs that intervention is needed. Virtual calls also serve as critical touchpoints, giving the caregiver and client opportunities to socialize. These regular conversations can mitigate social isolation and feelings of loneliness.
When basic home care assistance becomes necessary, a nearby Homewatch CareGivers location can provide the appropriate level of in-home care to meet the person’s unique needs.
Practical Support for Aging in Place
Active Care is a wonderful option for seniors who don’t need regular elder care services yet. Active Care offers a high level of autonomy for those who still independently perform activities of daily living while being able to monitor and address changes in the person’s condition. It also provides peace of mind for family members who worry about their loved one’s well-being but can’t be present themselves.
The Benefits of Starting Senior Home Care Early
Accepting support from non-family members can make some seniors uncomfortable. Welcoming strangers into the home is uncomfortable for a lot of us, regardless of age. However, many people who are aging in place but not living with a chronic condition or mobility challenges may still benefit from active home care services. Active Care fills this need and reduces the uneasiness of accepting a new caregiver by focusing on virtual visits.
The helpful, unique benefits of Active Care include:
- Regular remote home care visits monitor the individual’s overall well-being, thereby minimizing and even preventing hospitalizations.
- Through consistent conversation and skilled observations, the caregiving team may be able to identify opportunities to address home safety concerns or even recommend a higher level of care.
- Regular face-to-face interactions (even virtual ones) with friends and family are beneficial for those who are experiencing feelings of isolation or loneliness.
- Improve overall well-being by fostering connections with key individuals, such as healthcare providers, care coordinators, and caregivers.
