We’re here to help you get answers.
We understand that the in-home care of your senior loved one is of the utmost importance. You want to select the best care plan for them. If you have other questions that aren’t answered here, please don’t hesitate to call us at 267-7550-7500 or send us a message.
Q. How will you find the right caregiver for my senior?
Once you contact us, we will begin a personal assessment of your loved one’s specific needs. We set up an initial in-home visit with your senior and your family member. During that meeting, we’ll discuss in-depth what services would work best for your elder’s needs.
Next, we develop a Custom Care Plan just for your senior and work with you on any modifications. We then search our team of highly trained, bonded & insured caregivers to find the best fit team member for your loved one. We take into consideration your senior’s needs and interests and the relational compatibility of your loved one and our caregivers.
Q. What if my senior only needs a little assistance?
Not a problem at all! We are available for however many hours or days of the week your senior needs extra help. If your loved one only needs assistance with organizing the house and dusting and vacuuming once a week, we’re here to help. If your senior wants a walking companion three times a week, we’re here to help. Our senior in-home care services are flexible to fit your senior’s needs, schedule, and budget.
Q. If we needed more specialty care, can you offer that?
We can always adjust your loved one’s Custom Care Plan as their needs change. If your senior is hospitalized, we can provide more specialized nursing care during at-home recovery. If your loved one develops a serious illness or declines in cognitive ability, we will evaluate if your current caregiver is still the best fit or whether we should bring in another caregiver with additional skills and training.
Q. Are we locked into a long-term service contract?
Here at River Oaks Home Care, we believe that our exceptional care will speak for itself. Therefore, we do not lock you into a long-term contract. We can accommodate the type and length of in-home care your loved one needs, whether your family needs a couple hours of respite care or you are looking for multiple weeks of care for your loved one.
You can learn more about our services here, and also contact us to begin the conversation about your senior loved one’s specific needs.
Q. How quickly can in-home service start?
Often we can match a home caregiver to your senior’s individual needs and living situation within days of your initial contact with us. While we hesitate to rush and bypass our well-tested process in evaluating the optimum elder care experience for your loved one, we will work with you to make adjustments in more time-sensitive situations.
Give us a call, and together we’ll figure out the next best steps for your senior’s continued well-being, safety, and contentment.
Q. Are there programs available to help pay for in-home care services?
There are a variety of funding options available to pay for the care that your senior loved one needs. We are a provider for the PA Waiver Services, and the VA Aid & Attendance Pension Benefit is another very helpful service. Learn more about these and other funding options here.
