What is the difference between home health care and private at-home care?

Home health care is a type of skilled medical care, for those who qualify, that’s designed to help you recover from specific health situations, such as a medical procedure, or from a fall or illness. Home health care is often performed by a skilled nurse, rehabilitation therapist, home health aide, or medical social worker. Typically, this kind of care requires a physician’s order and that you meet certain eligibility requirements in order to qualify. Medicare often will cover it.

For private in-home care, such as the services provided by Caring At Home – Carbondale, you don’t need a physician’s order or need to meet eligibility requirements in order to receive services. Non-medical care provided is less focused on improving a health condition and, instead is meant to provide support or assistance with activities of daily living which may include personal care, household chores, and more. Typically Medicare doesn’t cover this type of care, and instead, you’re responsible for paying for it privately, so you get to decide on the services you need and how often you receive them.

Who qualifies for private in-home care?

You do not need to meet any medical qualifications or receive a physician’s order to be eligible for private duty, or in-home care. As long as your service requests match up with our agency’s service offerings, you should be eligible to receive care. Caring At Home provides a no-cost/no-obligation evaluation of your needs or wants prior to starting services. To learn more about the home care services available in Carbondale, give us a call at 888-229-8057.

What is the cost of home care services?

Because services are customized to meet individual needs, the cost of care will vary. Our fees are based on levels of care, frequency of service, and service location.

To get a rate based on your unique home care needs, contact our Carbondale office today to schedule an assessment.

Along with private pay, four common resources that may help you pay for care include long-term care insurance, reverse mortgages, veteran benefits, and life insurance.
