Benefits of Private Home Care
Home care allows your loved one to receive comprehensive healthcare services while remaining at home – and is both accessible and more cost-effective than nursing homes and assisted living facilities.
Agencies that specialize in private home care offer qualified caregivers who have passed background checks and have relevant experience to serve clients’ homes. Furthermore, these agencies often provide backup care should one caregiver become sick or unavailable.
Cost
Home care costs can be an immense source of worry for families. While they can vary significantly based on factors like location and the level of care needed, it often costs less than living in an assisted living community or care facility. According to Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Study, typical hour of home health aide services costs about $20 while renting an equivalent room will run you approximately $7,908 monthly.
