The Case for Home Care Services The cost of homecare is significantly lower when compared to hospital

visits, emergency room procedures, ambulance transportation, or nursing home admissions.

Journal of American Geriatrics Society

54 million US families are struggling in the caring for an aging parent or loved one.

US Department of Health & Human Services

The average US woman will spend more time caring for elderly parents and in-laws than raising her children.

US businesses lose about $11 Billion per year due to absenteeism, turnover and lost productivity among full-time employees who care for elders.

One Simple Question…“Should you hire a private care provider or a home care company?”

This question is often asked in the context of discussing the costs of care. Unfortunately, the risks of hiring a private care provider far outweigh the initial cost savings.
