Learn more about choosing the right care for your loved one

When a senior loved one starts to have difficulty performing daily living tasks, it can be difficult to know just what to do. Many family members start to think about assisted living facilities and nursing homes because that is what many people have been conditioned to do. Even though this has been part of the senior culture in America for many years, there is a growing trend away from commercial and institutional settings instead of increased senior home care.

The data from surveys and research is clear: the vast majority of seniors want to remain at home and age in place. A study by AARP placed the number of seniors who wanted to live out their senior years at home at upwards of 95 percent. For seniors to safely remain at home when they require support and services to complete tasks, efficient and effective elder care is required. This is where Comfort Keepers homecare solutions truly stand out.

Comfort Keepers offers what may be the largest variety of homecare solutions and services in the elder care industry. If a senior is going to require certain non-medical support to remain safe and independent, Comfort Keepers wants to provide that support. From laundry and housekeeping to transportation, meal preparation, and medication management, caregivers have your senior loved one covered. For seniors who require more support, personal care includes help with eating, toileting, bathing, grooming, and dressing. While all of Comfort Keepers services engage the senior cognitively, emotionally, and socially through the company's trademarked interactive caregiving model, Comfort Keepers also offers targeted companion care services, if needed.

Sometimes, a senior or their family may require a specific type of elder care at home. Comfort Keepers specializes in dementia and Alzheimer's care, transitions from hospital to home, respite care services, and compassionate and dignified end-of-life care.

Even the best elder care at home is not worth a hill of beans if it is not available when or where you need it. This is why Comfort Keepers support is available from as little as 30 minutes a week up to full-time 24-hour care, 365 days a year. Even better, every one of Comfort Keepers services is available in the comfort and convenience of your senior loved one's own home.
