Q: What does the term "aging in place" mean?

A: Aging in place means the ability for an older adult to live comfortably at home. This would be the opposite of living in a place like an assisted living facility. But sometimes, it may mean the ability for an individual to stay in an assisted living facility with the help of a caregiver. It all depends on what is most comfortable for the senior. 

Q: Do you provide services in assisted living facilities?

A: Yes! Some people realize that the help offered by an assisted living facility isn't enough to help them maintain their independence. In these cases, we'd be more than happy to provide one of our compassionate and qualified senior care provider through our home care agency. Be sure to check in with the particular assisted living facility in order to make sure that you're able to bring in extra help

Q: How quickly can services be provided/started?

A: Often, most of our home care agency services can begin within 48-hours of a request. Sometimes, one-on-one care can be provided on the same day.  

Q: Can I change the schedule if I have appointments to keep?

A: Very easily. All we need is a week's notice and scheduling can be altered. Our home care agency's motto is to make the schedule work for the family, not the other way around. It is all about your wants and needs in your life. We will do everything in our power to make sure that the schedule works for you.
