The benefits of home care
The benefits of home care are far-reaching and varied. Here are just some of the benefits you can enjoy:
Remaining at home means you stay in control of your life. Allowing you to keep your routines and way of life, instead of having routines and rules imposed on you. From choosing what and when you eat to maintaining your interests and lifestyle, staying at home means maintaining your independence.
Research from the Live-In Care Hub shows people who enjoy live-in care at home suffer nearly 30% fewer falls than their care and nursing home counterparts, and 50% fewer hip fractures. Receiving one-to-one care ensures you get the personalised care and attention you deserve to stay safe and well.
The cost of live-in care is often similar to residential care but with the added benefit of personalised one-to-one support from a carer whom you develop a close bond with. The costs are usually significantly cheaper for couples, and live-in care allows them to remain living together, which is often not possible in a care home setting.
Live-in carers do more than just care for a person’s health needs. They provide practical and domestic help on a daily basis, from cleaning and laundry to walking the dog and grocery shopping. Most daily tasks can be carried out by your carer if you wish.
Live-in care allows you to maintain your relationships with friends, family, neighbours and beloved pets. Maintaining a connection in the community is vital for mental well-being and quality of life.
You will receive support from someone who is trained and experienced in your health condition. Giving you peace of mind that you are receiving the best care possible. Carers can administer medications, help with mobility issues and assisted transfers, and offer continence care or other medical support as needed.
Live-in care gives you one-to-one personalised care suited to your specific needs and wishes, something that cannot be matched by residential care. Getting continuity of care, 24 hours a day, from a dedicated carer means they get to know what you need and when.
Having a dedicated carer means that you get to develop a close bond. Many clients comment that their carer becomes like one of the family – a trusted person they can rely on and confide in. The elimination of stress, vulnerability and loneliness cannot be underestimated in its ability to improve the quality of life and overall happiness for the elderly.
