Private Duty Home Care
Many seniors and older individuals enjoy living in the safety and comfort of their own home, with the help of a private duty caregiver.
Some older adults want to remain in the comfort and security of their own homes but may need help with daily living activities such as dressing, preparing meals, remembering to take medication, getting to and from appointments, or even help with shopping.
Private duty care can help with daily living activities like meal preparation, bathing, grooming, navigation and housekeeping as needed. Along with these activities, Private duty care can involve family respite assistance. Providing respite assistive care helps family members take a break from providing care, allowing them to focus on their own personal responsibilities.
Private duty care can be paid for through insurance, government programs including VetAssist and even private pay options. We are happy to help you answer any questions to navigate your available options for private duty home care. Contact Harmony Home Care for more private duty home care information.
