There are a number of advantages of home care for your loved ones. We have listed a few of these below for you…

Advantages of Home Care

1) Home Care is Affordable: Our professional caregivers not only provides high quality care, they are also affordable as compared to nursing homes. In most cases, keeping your elderly loved ones at home costs considerably less per hour than it would to send them to an elderly care home.

2) Familiar Surroundings: For many elderly the feeling of being at home, where they are comfortable and where they have family and friends surrounding them can promote health and happiness, this also applies to people with Dementia.

3) Allows for Personalized, One to One Care: Our caregivers will provide quality one on one care, this allows for a personalized care plan that sees to your loved one’s every need.

4) Independence, Comfort and Confidence: Did you know, more seniors fear moving into a nursing home and losing their independence than they fear death itself? According to one study, nearly 90% of seniors want to age in their own home. The home setting is the least restrictive environment for older adults to remain engaged with their typical daily activities in the community and with family and friends around them. The Home care services we provide can range from passionate physical and emotional care to medication management and assistance with activities, daily chores, meal preparation and house cleaning.

5) Home Care Keeps Families Together: In times of old age, sickness and Dementia, a strong family bond is very beneficial. Families are a great source of emotional support for the elderly. Knowing that your loved one is in an environment that is safe and therapeutic can reduce the feelings of guilt that one associates with the caregiver’s burden. Those who choose home care for their loved ones can have the advantage of visiting their family members whenever they want, without restricted visiting hours.

6) Home Care Gives You Piece of Mind: When one of our angel caregivers look after your loved one, you are doing more than just ensuring the best type of care for them. In most cases, it is just impossible for you to provide the range and level of care that a loved one needs. With responsibilities such as kids, jobs and a life of yout own it can be almost impossible to fully take care of your loved one. A full time caregiver gives you the benefit of not giving up on your loved one. It enables you to be there for them in a loving and supportive way while we professionally care for them.

    How soon can Jura Home Care place a caregiver?

    The first step is for us to send you the assessment forms to determine the kind of care you or your loved one requires and gather all personally relevant information. We have a rapid care response system that offers quick service when an unexpected situation presents itself.

    Our caring staff specialize in the care of people with forms of Dementia like Alzheimer’s. They provide assistance with companionship, personal care, incidental transportation to doctors and other service providers, medication monitoring, light housekeeping, cooking, laundry, etc. We also provide assistance with grooming, dressing, monitoring for bath safety and all other Dementia related symptoms.

    All services and schedules are tailored to the needs of the individual client and caregivers are available for daily, weekly, overnight, 24 hour or live-in assignments.

    Our caregivers are employees of the Jura Care Village and are involved in the caring for our full-time residents living with Dementia.  They received ongoing training and have the skills, heart, attitude, personality and experience to care compassionately for a person living with Dementia.

    From the beginning, we ensure that we provide the best and most compatible caregiver match for you or your loved one. If, for any reason, the caregiver placed is not working out, we will work as quickly as possible to place a new one in the position. This is one of the great benefits of using Jura Home Care.

    You can contact us anytime and speak with the Jura Care Team. Rest assured that we will look into your questions or comments immediately.

    This is a very rare event. But if it does occur, Jura Home Care offers a system that enables the caregiver to “clock in” and “clock out” by calling an automated number. If a scheduled shift has not been called in, the system alerts the office staff immediately and we send a secondary caregiver.
