What Are the Benefits of Live-in Care?
The primary benefit is that the elder remains in their home. This allows for improved safety and improved quality of life. Even when the elder faces extreme illnesses, remaining in their home is a benefit to them. Live-in care is based on a personalized plan of care which outlines the goals set forth by the care team, which may include the elder, family, doctor, or social worker and generally whoever has the legal right to approve these sorts of decisions. The plan of care helps to focus care on those areas that improve the elder’s quality of life. Tasks can range from meal preparation, assistance with eating, housework, running errands, and personal care.
