24-Hour/ Live-In Assistance

For our clients whose circumstances require 24-hour, live-in care, we will typically provide our most experienced and qualified caregivers. There are two different options for live-in care.

  • The first option is the most common whereby a caregiver spends 24-hours in your household with a full 8 hour overnight sleeping break and intermittent breaks throughout the day. The caregiver is available on an emergency basis during their sleeping break.
  • The second option provides "awake and alert" care around the clock whereby a caregiver is available at all hours (with the exception of standard breaks). This care is typically handled in shifts of two (sometimes three) caregivers for clients that need frequent and constant attention throughout all hours of the day.

Benefits of Live-in Care

For nearly the same cost as a nursing home, a client receives one-on-one care from a devoted Caregiver and is able to remain in their own home.
