Live In Home Health Aide

shutterstock_224584420Live-In Aide Duties

A Live-In Aide undergoes the same home health care training as a Home Health Aide (HHA), but the duties of a Live-In Aide means a person who resides in the client’s home to provide assistance whenever they are needed.

Live-In Aides quickly acclimate to the patient’s schedule and provide consistency and reassurance throughout the day that a helping hand is always near. Because Live-In Aides work so closely with their patients, they are often the first person to notice changes in a patient’s routines, providing family members and SelectCare’s staff with valuable insight into the patient’s health.

Live-In services are especially helpful for patients who typically sleep through the night but desire an added level of safety during the evening hours, when slips, trips and wandering are a greater risk. Live In Aides are some of our most dedicated staff members and build their sleep schedule around their patient’s routine. The demanding nature of these assignments means Live In Aide services are best suited for clients whose routines typically allow for six to seven hours of uninterrupted rest.

When SelectCare Home Care Services begins a Live-In case, our Service Coordinators select Aides who match the client’s personality and temperament – we stand by our motto: “The Right Person Makes All the Difference.”  Social activity plays an important role in a patient’s quality of life, and by carefully selecting the best Live-In Aide for each patient, we ensure that we are providing not only quality home health care, but the companionship and social engagement our patients deserve.

SelectCare is simply phenomenal. As a physician, I have a good view into the current health care scene. In the sea of home health care providers, where these days everything is reduced to numbers, cost, and then ‘on-to-the-next’, SelectCare is an outlier in the best sense of the word. We had watched SelectCare for quite some time as they provided home care services for a dear family friend. We saw that they were 100% reliable, had excellent operating procedures, and hired really extraordinary caregivers who actually cared about their job and the person they were caring for. We have also had experience with other companies in the past which were so-so, and therefore when it came time for our family to engage a caregiving company for Mom they were the obvious choice. And it turned out to be by far the best choice possible. The SelectCare office team and managers are staffed with people who truly care about their clients. Working with the office to provide coverage as needed has been seamless. They are not only available but happy to communicate at any time. They are flexible in terms of the care needs, and can expand or contract the care depending on the needs of the client. The case managers are highly trained nurses who are super dedicated to insuring their clients receive what they need, and they go the extra mile. And the caregivers themselves are remarkable; reliable to a fault, well trained dedicated, capable, trustworthy…everything you could possibly want if you need to have someone outside of family coming into your home for very personal interactions with the family member in need. And when I’m out of town, and the peace of mind that I have knowing that SelectCare is there when I cannot be is absolutely priceless.
