What is Short-Term Home Care?

Short-term home care services can last anywhere from a few days to a couple of months while someone is recovering from an illness, injury or surgery. In these instances, home care is a beneficial temporary solution. For example, some home care companies offer special short-term services to help seniors make smooth transitions from the hospital back to their homes.
Depending on the senior’s needs, one or more professional caregivers may be assigned. A “custodial caregiver” can provide unskilled assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) and household tasks like bathing, dressing, mobility, laundry and preparing meals. Ensuring that a loved one is getting their medications and groceries and that they do not have to see to chores will help them recuperate faster.
