Non-Medical Home Care

Nonmedical Home Care Can Help Your Senior Loved One

Dad is finishing up his chemotherapy and is a little weak. He could use help with meals and basic housekeeping until he regains his strength.

Mom remains in steady health for her 82 years and wants to stay in the house even though Dad is now gone. But some days she just gets so lonely.

Grandma is in an independent living apartment, but she needs rides to doctor appointments and to get her hair cut and colored. (She’s not giving up her favorite stylist after 40 years!) Grandma also enjoys her weekly outing to bargain shop.

Personal independence is important at any age, but especially for seniors who sometimes feel like they’ve lost other freedoms like driving, traveling alone or entertaining family and friends. With a little extra hand of a trained in-home caregiver, older adults can enjoy their day-to-day activities safely and confidently. A world-leading provider of nonmedical home care, Right at Home also gives family caregivers a respite break and chance to recharge.

With our comprehensive senior care services, Right at Home knows just how to help older adults live well and age well . . . right at home.

Why Use Nonmedical Care

Letting elders age in place can bring fear and uncertainty among family members who can’t regularly be on site with their loved one. Right at Home nonmedical home care ensures seniors maintain as much self-sufficiency as possible, while family members remain at ease knowing their senior is receiving personal, trustworthy care. And, all at a price that’s more affordable than care facilities or a visiting nurse.

Commonly Asked Questions About Nonmedical Care

Q. How will you find the right caregiver for my senior?

Once you contact us, your local Right at Home Mooresville office begins a personal assessment of your loved one’s specific needs. We set up an initial in-home visit with your senior and your family members and we interact in-depth about what services would work best for what your elder needs. Next, we develop a Custom Care Plan just for your senior and work with you on any modifications. We then search our team of highly trained, bonded/insured caregivers to find the appropriate team member for your loved one. Matching details include your senior’s needs and interests and the relational compatibility of your loved one and our at-home care provider.

Q. What if my senior only needs a little assistance?

Not a problem at all. We are available for how many hours or days of the week your senior needs extra help. If your loved one only needs assistance with organizing the house and dusting and vacuuming once a week, we’re here to help. If your senior wants a walking companion three times a week, we’re here to help. Right at Home adult home care is flexible to fit the care that is needed and for how often you prefer.

Q. If we needed more specialty care, can you offer that?

We can always adjust your loved one’s Custom Care Plan as individual needs change. If your senior is hospitalized, we can provide more specialized nursing care during at-home recovery. If your loved one develops a serious illness or declines in cognitive ability, we would evaluate if your current Right at Home caregiver still is the best fit or whether we should turn to the skilled nursing skills of another well-matched caregiver.

Q. Are we locked into a long-term service contract?

Right at Home does not lock you into a long-term contract. Our exceptional home care speaks for itself. We can accommodate the type and length of in-home care your loved one needs, whether your family needs a couple hours of respite care or you are looking for multiple weeks of care for your loved one. Contact your local Right at Home office to explore the types of nonmedical services and care plans they may offer.

Q. How quickly can in-home service start?

Often we can match a home caregiver to your senior’s individual needs and living situation within days of your initial contact with us. While we hesitate to rush and bypass our well-tested process in evaluating the optimum elder care experience for your loved one, we will work with you to make adjustments in more time-sensitive situations. Give us a call, and together we’ll figure out the next best steps for your senior’s continued well-being, safety and contentment.

There was not anything they could have done better."

"Dear Becky, I would like to advise you that Laurie Johnson is a clean, fun, and organized hard worker. She knows a lot of old ways of doing things and always introduces new ways. She is very fun to be with and makes us laugh. If Laurie did not work as my caregiver, she is still someone I would like in my life as a friend. Laurie is extremely patient with my declining husband. She listens to him and treats him with respect. She is also a great cook. Laurie does it all! Housework, laundry, bathing, and even arranging flowers. We love Laurie!"

"They have made themselves available, which establishes trust with me. My caregivers do their job, which shows they have a good work ethic, by taking the trash out. The caregivers should come to work in their uniforms or scrubs. They have made themselves available, which establishes trust with me. I appreciate that my caregivers do their job. My caregiver, Cora Smith, is very careful about watching me for possible fall risks. She has been there at my side like an assistant for walking around the house."

"The impact is huge. I don't have to worry about my mom because I know the caregiver is there providing companionship and that my mom's needs are taken care of. Stacy is thorough with my mom, she keeps good notes and follows through on what I ask her to do. Stacy definitely provides the care my mom needs. Stacy makes sure my mom eats, prompts her to take medication, helps with baths, and takes her for walks. I'm not looking for much communication with the office. They answer the phone when I need them, and that's absolutely sufficient. Stacy makes an effort to understand what my mom wants and needs, even in terms of companionship and friendship, and she's very flexible."

"They are very good at getting someone over here. When someone can't come, they try to get a substitute. They call me when the caregiver can't come and ask if I want a substitute. The services have been very helpful. It is nice to have someone here so I can go out and do necessary shopping. She cleans him up and changes his shirts. She does exercise his arms, which is good. She says hello and goodbye to him. I appreciate that she does do all the necessary steps to clean him up and feed him."
