If you are taking care of an aging loved one who can no longer easily care for themselves, you may be in a position where you have to make a choice. Assisted living communities are always an option, but many seniors would prefer to stay in the comfort of their own home. In these cases, non-medical home care is a wonderful option. In situations where you can care for your loved one most of the day but need someone to stay with them as you go to work or run errands, non-medical home care is a service that offers flexibility.

What is Non-Medical Home Care?

As we get older, tasks that were once simple and easy can become tedious and difficult. While many in home care clients have specific medical needs that require attention and care from a nurse or home health aide, sometimes older people simply need a helping hand around their home doing basic tasks. Some of the tasks that might be provided during non-medical home care include:

• Bathing
• Basic personal hygiene
• Help getting dressed
• Preparing meals
• Light housekeeping
• Transportation

On top of these basic tasks, companionship is also a very important aspect of non-medical home care.
