Live-In Care Programs for Seniors
Deciding how to care for an aging family member can be difficult. That is why our live-in care program has been such a game changer for families in the Boston Metro West community. Our services provide daily, ongoing support to individuals whose cognitive function or physical abilities have diminished to the point where living alone would not otherwise be an option.
The flexibility of having access to a live-in caregiver means there will always be someone to assist with a broad range of daily tasks. Aid may include safety supervision, socialization, and stand by and hands on assistance with ambulation and transfers. If you want to initiate this type of care for someone, a plan can be tailored to address the activities they need the most help with at home. The compassion and social benefits of live-in care can also be valuable for someone with limited social ties who wishes to live independently at home.

The presence of skilled caregivers in the home provides vital assistance when seniors need it, from helping them get dressed in the morning to aiding with daily activities and household tasks in the evening. Caregivers are available at any time during the day but are generally expected to sleep at night.

-
Getting dressed and undressed
-
Bathroom care
-
Self care

Meal prep
-
Light housekeeping/laundry
-
Keeping appointments
-
Other tasks
Daily Companionship
Access to companionship can be a source of comfort and emotional support for your loved one, as well. The Right at Home team works hard to make sure there is a personality match for seniors in the program. This enables clients to feel more comfortable with their caregivers, who become attuned to their routines and individual personalities.
Short-Term or Long term Needs
The same services can be just as helpful for seniors following an operation or extended hospital stay who need extra care as they recover. A live-in caregiver can help ensure they are following physical therapy recommendations and making their doctor appointments. Tell us what your concerns are and we will craft a program that works for you.
Home Care That Preserves Seniors’ Independence & Gives Families Peace of Mind
Our live-in care program can be of great comfort to anyone who has been caring for a parent or grandparent and needs a better option from a trained professional. Right at Home’s care team has seen firsthand how families can struggle to address their loved ones’ growing needs so they can remain safe and secure in their homes. That’s why there is a trial period that allows you to make sure our live-in program aligns with your needs.
Even if an assisted living facility may become necessary someday, families appreciate having access to live-in care as an interim option. With help in the home throughout the day, you can rest easy knowing your loved one is in good hands.
