When it comes to caring for aging parents or loved ones, every family’s situation is different. That’s why The Senior Company provides a wide range of home care options, from different home care schedules to on-site support in assisted living, hospital or hospice environments. For families that need help caring for loved ones at home for certain hours of the day, we offer hourly care that prioritizes their independence, safety, and quality of life.
Hourly Care vs 24/7 Care
Hourly care from The Senior Company is personalized and flexible to meet the needs of seniors and their families. Schedules can range from a few hours a day, to 24/7 coverage. Not all seniors require all-day care—many just need someone to check in with them each day and provide personalized support.
For example, if you are the primary caregiver for your senior parent but also need to work, our experienced caregivers can provide coverage while you are unavailable. Hourly home care also helps families who live out-of-state to support aging parents who are mostly independent but might need a helping hand, companionship, or someone to monitor changes to their health over time.
An hourly care plan can also help keep the cost of an in-home caregiver lower than other types of care services. It is a budget-friendly option that still provides the critical medical, emotional and social support your loved one needs, right in the comfort of their own home.
What to Expect from Hourly In-Home Care
Hourly care from The Senior Company operates on a customized schedule to meet your senior’s unique needs. Our skilled staff provides support including:
