STAYING AT HOME

 

Overview

 

Having your loved one stay at home is a wonderful option for caregivers who are able to incorporate this new role into their daily lives. Staying at home can be a rewarding and emotionally satisfying experience for you and your loved one.

Benefits of Staying at Home

Benefits of staying at home include:

  • Finances: Staying at home can be less expensive than a senior facility.
  • Family Bonding: Having your loved one at home can foster emotional ties.
  • Convenience: Seeing Mom is as simple as coming home for the day.
  • Community: Your loved one can go to the same church, pharmacy, doctor, and neighborhood card game.
  • Support: You make the decisions about support services such as home health aides and medical management aides, rather than rely on staff at chosen facility.
