Choosing In-Home Care

Comparing home care with facilities, vetting an agency, and knowing when it is time.

Deciding between staying at home, assisted living and a nursing home is rarely a clean comparison, and it usually happens under time pressure after a fall or a hospital discharge. These guides lay out the real differences: what each option costs, what care each one actually provides, and the signs that tell you the current arrangement has stopped working.

They also cover how to vet an agency, because the difference between a licensed home care organization and a caregiver registry decides who carries the employment risk, the workers' compensation and the payroll.
