Live in care

Live-in or 24-Hour Care allowing elderly adults to “Age in Place” in their homes. Caring for an aging loved one is a tremendous responsibility but can present practical and logistical challenges, especially when you have work or family obligations or live far away. Placing a professional caregiver can ensure your loved one receives the dedicated attention they need to remain safe and content in their home.

If your loved one’s physical and cognitive functions diminish and their daily needs increase they may need 24/7 in-home care. While you may consider an assisted living facility or nursing home, you have another option - live-in or 24-hour care from Southern Comfort Homecare can help your loved one preserve their independence and give you peace of mind whilst they remain comfortable at home.

If you think professional home care may be the right choice for your loved one — either through routine visits or 24/7 care — a Southern Comfort Homecare's care coordinator can provide you with more information during our initial assessment.

A comprehensive Occupational Therapist risk assessment also will be conducted with our in-house Advanced Practitioner Occupational Therapist to ensure all daily living skills and transfers are completed in a safe manner.
