Personal Care vs. Companion Care
At HomeCare by Design, we understand the differences between personal care and companion care, and how they cater to unique needs. While both services offer non-medical support and companionship, there are distinct variations in their roles.
Personal caregivers possess specific skills and capabilities to provide direct physical assistance, including help with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) and other tasks that require hands-on support. They are trained to handle various responsibilities while offering physical assistance.
On the other hand, companion caregivers excel in providing companionship, emotional support, and assistance with non-physical tasks such as running errands or light housekeeping. They do not provide direct assistance with ADLs or tasks that necessitate physical aid.
At HomeCare by Design, we recommend personal services when your loved one requires direct physical assistance or is managing a chronic health condition like post-stroke deficits or dementia. If your loved one does not require this level of assistance, we may suggest companion services to foster companionship and provide support on non-physical tasks.
Rest assured, we offer tailored solutions to meet the specific needs of your loved one, ensuring they receive compassionate care that aligns with their individual requirements.
Get Started with Personal Care Services
HomeCare by Design understands the significance of aging adults staying in the comfort of their own homes for as long as possible. Initiating private home care services with HomeCare by Design is a seamless process.
Our dedicated care coordinator will arrange a complimentary consultation to introduce you to our approach to in-home assistance and address any questions or concerns you may have. During this consultation, your coordinator will gain insights into your loved one's situation, enabling us to create a personalized care plan and schedule tailored to their needs.
Following the consultation, your coordinator will carefully select a caregiver whose skills and abilities align with your loved one's specific requirements and preferences. This ensures that your loved one receives the optimal care and support they deserve. At HomeCare by Design, we strive to make the process of finding the perfect caregiver as smooth as possible.
