A common concern with many people is the desire to stay at home as they age. Many homeowners have lived in their home for decades, even raised their families in their homes. The thought of having to move out can be very distressing. This gives health care providers the responsibility to develop a health care plan that enables you to remain at home. Aging in Place is focused on supporting the health care choices and companionship that so many people need to be independent at home.
What Support Can Help Me Stay at Home?
Many people use services from Loving Kindness, to staff their homes with caregivers who can help to accomplish daily tasks. We can develop a health care plan to assist with Activities of Daily Living, such as:
- meal prep
- light housekeeping
- bathing
- dressing
- reminders
- appointments
- vacation assistance
- and much more.
Not only do the caregivers assist with all the duties of each day, they provide companionship for those who live alone.
How Much Will It Cost to Get Help at Home?
The local Area Agency on Aging has specific departments dedicated to providing resources and assisting residents to register for services such as: Home Care, Ride Services, Housing and Cash Assistance if needed. Certain programs are fee for services, and others have eligibility requirements where services can be provided at a decreased cost, or even free of charge at times.
