About Connecticut In-Home Assistance
Caring for the elderly can be very difficult to accommodate the needed amount of care and attention due to matters such as work, distance, and taking care of children. Declines in physical or mental functions can further escalate the need for extra support when it comes to taking care for a loved one.While nursing homes do provide around the clock care, the patient needs to leave their home and is generally away from loved ones. Studies show that these factors can lead to increased rates of depression and anxiety, as well as reduce the quality of life for the individual. An in-home caregiver will remain at the patients home during the day or night, meaning that the care that is given is comparable to that of a nursing home. Caregivers can perform duties such as preparing meals, administering medication, socializing, but also other duties that nursing homes cannot do such as light homekeeping, transportation, and shopping. Such benefits are not possible at a nursing home due to the senior not being in their own home.Additionally, the cost of an at-home caregiver can be much lower than that of an assisted living facility or nursing home.
