Many older people eventually hire in-home caregivers; this can allow people to live independently in their own homes for much longer, and can take some of the pressure off other primary caregivers. Services provided by caregivers range from basic household help to full-fledged nursing care, depending on the needs of the elders involved.
-
Ask your family physician about getting in-home help, or consult a public health nurse. These professionals should be able to put you in touch with reputable home-care services.
-
Find out if part or all of the cost of in-home health care may be covered by your private or government insurance plan.
-
Ask if your local Red Cross chapter provides home help services, or can recommend a reputable provider.
-
Talk to people from groups or organizations that support people with particular health conditions - such as Parkinson's or diabetes. They may be able to recommend caregivers who specialize in helping people with these conditions.
-
Check references carefully before you hire an individual to provide home care. Also get a criminal record check if possible.
-
Find out what credentials the caregiver has. Does she have CPR and first aid training, or any other health-care training and credentials?
-
Define the tasks that need to be performed by the caregiver, and make sure that she is willing and able to do them. Will the caregiver need to help with bathroom and grooming duties? Meal planning and housecleaning? Feeding and administering medicines? Make sure the contract includes a precise job description that everyone can live with.
