Home care is a popular alternative to assisted living that's typically more affordable. With home care, your loved one can age in place in their own home where they are surrounded by years of memories, the neighbors they know, and the community they love. In an assisted living facility, your loved one will be in a new and unfamiliar setting, surrounded by strangers, which can often cause discomfort and worsening of certain conditions such as Dementia. Home care makes it easy for friends, family, and neighbors to visit and gives your loved one the comfort and benefits of the familiar.
