Why In Home Care

IN-HOME CARE: With an increasing number of seniors opting to receive care in the comfort of their own homes, the question of why this is becoming so popular arises.

What is driving this trend and influencing it to become a viable standard senior care option shortly? Follow us as we investigate this and other topics in the next Serengeti Care blog!

Home health and in-home senior care are alternatives to assisted living facilities, independent living facilities, nursing homes, and other types of senior residential housing. Forcing a loved one to leave their home and community to live in a completely new environment has many negative consequences, both physical and mental. Here are a few reasons why you should do it at home.

• Personal care is provided at home: Your loved one receives immediate, personalized care based on her or his immediate needs. 
  Serengeti Care also has an RN on call, allowing us to customize the plan of care as needed. 
  We cover everything from light housekeeping to wound care and hospice. 
  No more paying for unnecessary services every montha monthly basis.

• Home care is secure:
  The primary reason for in-home care is safety. 
  Installing safety equipment in the home makes it safer for seniors to remain there. 
  Grab bars, walkers, wheelchairs chairschairs, non-slip carpets, and other safety devices all contribute to your loved one’s safety. 
  Individuals who help with housekeeping tasks can contribute to keeping pathways clear and uncluttered. 
  They can ensure that your loved one is safe.
• In-home care enhances Quality of Life.  Seniors that remain in their homes are far more likely to be active and maintain a higher level of independence. Our caregivers assist with everyday activities and needs and maintain routing schedules. A balanced,
• robust schedule does wonders for your aging loved one. In addition, seniors who choose in-home care generally have more family involvement.
