Is Live-In Care Right for You?

At Griswold Home Care for Scottsdale, we offer many different care options to help you or a loved one Live Assured around the clock. These options include Live-In Care, Overnight Care, and 24-Hour Care.

Options for Around-the-Clock Care

Overnight Care is ideal when your loved one cannot be left alone overnight. One of our Caregivers can stay in the home while the client sleeps to provide you with that peace of mind you need. Throughout the night, our Caregivers can assist with toileting or medication reminders, and in the morning, they can assist with meal prep and personal care.

24-hour Care is another option that may be right for you. A team of Caregivers ensures there is always an awake Caregiver at the home ready to assist if needed.

These are both great options, but perhaps you are interested in having just one Caregiver around all the time. If that’s you, we have the perfect solution.

Live-In Care

Live-in care is perfect for someone who needs ongoing support. One of our in home caregivers will live in the home with the client. Often, these arrangements result in healthy and meaningful friendships that can improve the client’s overall quality of life. The only requirements are that the Caregiver be given adequate sleep/living quarters and have 6-8 hours off each day. If the client is awake, the Caregiver is typically working. Live-In Care offers your loved one assistance and attention in the environment they trust most. Before taking your loved one out of their comfort zone, consider a Griswold Caregiver to give them the care they deserve.

Our Caregivers provide:

  • Companionship Care – such as shopping and running errands, writing and sending cards, supporting hobbies and interests, and providing camaraderie at social events.
  • Homemaking Care – including running errands, meal planning and preparation, dishwashing, cleaning, organizing, plant care, and laundry.
  • Personal Care – toileting, bathing, oral care, skin care, general hygiene, hair care, grooming, and dressing.

Live-in care can be especially effective for those who need support due to certain conditions, illnesses, or injuries. This includes those suffering from Dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.

If you are in the Scottsdale area and think Live-In-Care would be right for you or a loved one, please reach out today. We will be happy to answer any questions and design a personalized care plan for you. We can even schedule one of our excellent Caregivers for a shift within 24 hours of your call.
