Home Care

Home care is a type of care wherein qualified professionals assist with activities of daily living (ADLs), like personal hygiene, meal preparation, and dressing, at home. This type of care provides a wide range of services, including personal care, skilled nursing care, rehabilitation services, and companionship. This is ideal for those looking to stay at home in retirement but needing care and support for ADLs and chronic conditions. Hourly care and live-in care are often provided for flexibility, ensuring older adults receive care tailored to their needs and preferences.

Hospice Care

Focusing on those with life-limiting conditions or terminal illness, hospice care provides physical, emotional, social, and spiritual support. This type of care aims to ease older adults’ discomfort and pain and does not focus on finding a cure. Typically provided with a multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, social workers, and hospice aides, in older adults’ preferred setting, may it be at home, hospital, or senior living community. Hospice care provides care for those with a life expectancy estimated at six months or less.

Palliative Care

This type of care focuses on providing comfort, pain relief, and emotional support for those with serious illness. Unlike hospice care, palliative care provides support at any stage of the illness, even alongside curative treatments. This can be provided at home, in nursing homes, in hospitals, and in other senior living communities.

Skilled Nursing

Skilled nursing care is a type of care provided by registered nurses in a medical setting under a physician’s supervision, focusing on intensive medical care and rehabilitation. It is typically provided in hospitals and purposely built skilled nursing communities and healthcare centers, usually aimed at short-term and transitional care.
