The Benefits of Using In-Home Care

Published on by Dr Foead Geula

We all love our creature comforts. We all love our own individual routine within the safe confines of our home. These aspects of living are never more important than when we grow old. But what happens when we need assistance with our daily living routine? What happens if we lose our mobility and require help with cooking or bathing?

For many families, a move to a nursing home seems like the ideal solution for elderly family members. Sadly, however, it is a fact that many older people currently residing in nursing homes are unhappy - and it is hardly surprising.

Moving to a nursing home can be disruptive and, worse - distressing. Strange people,strange food, strange rooms, a constant rotation of new care staff and new residents. Add to this any existing health ailments and it is easy to understand why the elderly prefer in home care provided by empathetic and professional staff.
